A Repository of Recruiter Email Domains and Email Filter Automation
I've found it useful to maintain email filters for technical recruitment companies so that I can separate these from my other email and review at a time when I can give them the attention required, depending on whether I'm currently looking for work. This takes regular maintenance and so I've created a repository along with some scripts for automating the filter strings for my GMail account. The hope is that others may find this useful and contribute domains to the repository. Note that as per the README, this is NOT a spam list. Recruiter email is essential for finding work. This is just to…
In plain words
This is a curated repository of recruiter email domains paired with automation scripts for Gmail filters. It helps job seekers organize recruitment emails separately from their inbox, allowing them to review messages when they have time and attention to give. The repository includes tools to automatically generate filter strings and encourages community contributions of new recruiter domains. It is designed for technical professionals who want to manage recruiter outreach more effectively without treating legitimate job opportunities as spam.

I made a tool for myself to act as a filter for recruiter messages. I was tired of getting vague messages and doing the typical messaging back and forth only to hear the salary was too low or the job didn't have remote. The tool lets you create a form with a selection of only the filters you want on there. You give a unique link to recruiters that will take them to the your form They can fill in your form (or not) If their responses pass your filters you'll get an email. If their responses fail your filters, the recruiter gets an email saying so, so they know not to bother you again. The…

The two most useful email filters that I have on my personal account automatically move the following messages to a "from-robots" folder: * Any message that contains the word "unsubscribe" * Any message from no-reply@ As a side note: please do not send emails from [email protected] If you want users to engage with your communications you need to give them an option to respond.

Hi HN! I made many small web games in the past with Unity or Phaser. But this time I wanted to make something completely on my own. So I coded a basic game framework in plain JavaScript, and used it to make Almost Pong. This was a really fun project that taught me a lot about JavaScript, and I plan to make more minimalist games with this framework. Interesting fact: Almost Pong doesn't load any assets, all sprites and sounds are generated with code. Happy to answer questions, and please let me know if you have any feedback on the game. Thanks!
