Is the project dead?

[lucasfcnunes]

No new commits for almost 1 year and no new releases for almost 2.

No.

What do you mean by "dead"? I've refactored it multiple times and it's already in a stable position. I don't need to keep adding "features" to keep a project alive.

The live instance for existing users works great. The signup is closed because of spammers but you can always host the project yourself, that's the main point.

But anyway, I'm trying to prioritize Kutt over my other projects and plan a roadmap for 2024. I've already taken some steps in this direction and hopefully next time I'll come back with real updates.

That's good news, there are currently some interesting PRs that you might want to take a look at.

That's great news. The only thing that makes me worried are security vulnerabilities:

Dockerfile is based off node:12-alpine, which does not even have a label on dockerhub: node. The lowest version of docker node is 18 and current version 21.

So for some time, there are no security updates for this kutt container.

@poeti8 could you please look at issue #630. If there's any help needed, I would like to help.

[davidgs]

It's a fair question given the number of outstanding PRs and Issues.

[jaredcat]

It seems dead. Why not add some collaborators to help?

I don't need to keep adding "features" to keep a project alive.

No, but there should be regular updates for security and bug fixes.

No, but there should be regular updates for security and bug fixes.

No there shouldn't. If it's really important or if it's a security issue, then sure, I'll do it right away, as I have done so far.

Node 12 reached end of life on 30 Apr 2022

Seems like there's a lot of bugs and security issues being reported or trying to be fixed and waiting to be reviewed
