Git Hooting
00's called, they want their RSS feeds back. I was looking at my growing Github gist collection when a sudden urge to blog and make a name for myself "by not programming" struck. Part way into implementing my oh so special static website generator it occurred to me that, quite frankly, Github gists is a pretty decent publishing platform. I mean, it gives you reasonably extended markdown with previews, heck I could even write in org-mode, has comments, follower - followee relationship, extended search with filters, check out locally and push your edits. Did someone say "edit button"? Thus the…
Git Hooting launched on May 7, 2023 with 124 votes, #351 of 4,910 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.
In plain words
Git Hooting converts GitHub gists into RSS feeds, allowing users to publish and subscribe to content written in markdown or org-mode format. It treats gists as a blogging platform, enabling users to create feeds from their gist collections with features like comments, search filtering, and local editing capabilities. The tool is designed for developers and writers who want to share and discover content through RSS without building a separate website.

GitHoot makes blogging as simple as creating a GitHub gist. You do content. Let RSS clients do the layout. We take care of syndication, aggregation and sharing. Gist simplicity makes blogging fun and liberating experience while GitHub platform affords a familiar and comfortable editing experience. Formatting with GitHub flavored markdown or org mode, instant preview, syntax highlighting, revisions
Say no to custom ad-infested feeds. Your readers will be grateful. Format that you know and love. Though Orgmode will work just as well. Have a conversation with your readers. No need to reinvent it - GitHub gists have comments section. Quickly subscribe to RSS of your GitHub & Twitter followees via OPML list we generate. Advanced search and filtering? Have at it. So powerful. Much flexibility. Very GitHub. Wow! In your browser address bar replace www with whatever subdomain you fancy. E.g. mine is vlad making up the domain vlad.git.ht . If its available, claim it by logging in with GitHub. Publish a few gists. Pay for your subscription with Stripe if satisfied and git hooting. Grab a…from git.ht

GitHiredDec 2025 · githired.tech · ▲360Hey HN - today I’m launching GitHired. A hiring platform that ranks developers based on what they actually build — not what they claim on a PDF. It’s called GitHired, and here’s the core idea: GitHub > Resumes Instead of trusting “proficient in React” bullet points, we analyze a candidate’s actual GitHub: their real tech stack their most complex projects how active they are what kinds of contributions they make which skills match your job description and yes, we detect fake “green square farming.” Why we built this Because engineering hiring is broken. Resumes are inflated. Activity charts…
GitPodcast2025 · gitpodcast.com · ▲308Understanding any GitHub repository is tough, especially a big one - this project aims to make it a tad bit easier by giving the listener a primer + some details on the specific repository. For some people (like me) - audio/visual medium is more easily understandable. So, I hope this project is helpful to some of them. This project was inspired by https://gitdiagram.com - so check it out as well, and maybe use them together for better understanding. Future plans: 1. To add more voices and let users choose most natural one (decide between OpenAI/Microsoft Speech) 2. Custom…

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
