before we NIH our own software again, i'll do the ritual:—i'm looking for a FOSS issue tracking system that works like a chat/collaborative microblog.—i.e. one should be able to post a new request, which becomes a thread, and this thread can be prioritized and has a status (the thread can be marked as DONE). similar to how code review threads work, but for any issue.—ideally i want the messages to support custom tags to reference/link to items in our (homegrown) ERP system—and good search

i realize this can be done with a kanban / card system. but i don't want the fixed lanes and the dragging stuff around of that. more like a huge linear todo list(s). i want to be able to make my own filters/queries to tune what i need to pay attention to (and others in the team). also it needs to be built on modern technology, i.e. no old scripting languages like PHP etc.

we have mattermost but the UI is coded in a way that it's kind of slow and clunky even on fast computers/phones and they will probably never recover from this. also, threads cannot have a status/be completed, or messages sorted by non-time-linear order AFAIK.

@mntmn there was a floss stackoverflow clone whose name eludes me but maybe it does what you need?

@mntmn Have you looked at Zulip? We use it as our internal chat system and have had success with it. Pretty good Python API too if you want to write your own tooling to work alongside it.

@c0debabe lol it seems PHP will always have its haters despite being very practical and capable :blobcatcoffee:

@annika @c0debabe sorry, i didn't mean to criticize PHP here and will edit the post. we just don't have recent inhouse experience with it and i would also prefer a non-ruby and non-python system as well, for example. a compiled language would be best.

@mntmn Have you looked at Affine.pro? I guess it won't be what you're looking for, but maybe you can make it work, so I mention it just in case. I have no personal experience with it, I recently came across it as an alternative to Notion. Based on what I see in the templates section, it seems like you can make it into almost anything... https://affine.pro/

@mntmn What about Fossil? It has an inbuilt wiki, issue tracker, forum. https://www.fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki

@mntmn implying scripting languages aren't modern shows you're not serious about this. Go ahead and NIH it in rust.

@ryanprior ok, thanks. i was worried about the "you're not serious" and the "go ahead"

@mntmn requesting a compiled language on top of the rest comes off as deeply unserious. What's the actual requirement? Memory constrained environment etc? Why not say that?

@mntmn Zulip or Discourse with some plugin is the way to go.

@ryanprior why "deeply unserious"? i would understand it if you had asked _why_ i have this requirement instead of just trying to judge me like that without knowing the background?i've been writing web-based software for more than 20 years professionally on all kinds of stacks like perl (starting with cgi-bin), php, java, scala, ruby (merb, rails, sinatra), python (bottle, django), go and rust. that's why i have experience and preferences for what i would like to maintain/host.

@mntmn this would be a very interesting tool indeed, especially if it allows cross-repo/cross-platform issue referencing/discussion. Nowadays all tools and builds are spread across GitLab, Codeberg, GitHub or selfbosted/other Git/Issue tracking platforms.

@mntmn saying "I prefer a compiled binary for deployment simplicity" makes sense. Framing that requirement as "needs to use modern technology" came off as whimsical 🍃

@mntmn @ryanprior curious, not meaning to get in between, but I wondered, do you know C as well? I am curious.

@mntmn Have you find a satisfying tool? If so, what it is?
