Hey Everybody,

We are thrilled to open source Maxun today.

Maxun is an open-source no-code web data extraction platform. It lets you build custom robots for data scraping in just a few clicks.

Maxun lets you create custom robots which emulate user actions and extract data, while handling dynamic parts like pagination and scrolling.

Maxun also lets you turn websites to REST APIs and Spreadsheets. We also support a feature called BYOP (Bring Your Own Proxy) which lets you connect your own anti-bot infrastructure and save huge $$$.

Would love to hear use-cases & feedback.

Hey HN!

A few months ago, I introduced PGQueuer here, a minimalist, high-performance job queue library for Python using PostgreSQL. The original post received a lot of insightful comments, and the discussions were invaluable. Since then, I've been improving PgQueuer, but now I'd love to focus on areas where it fell short.

I'm particularly interested in feedback from folks who tried PgQueuer but found it didn't suit their needs. What was missing? What specific issues or limitations did you run into? Were there pain points around performance, feature set, or implementation that ultimately made you look for an alternative?

I'm aware that there are many job queue solutions out there, each with different trade-offs, and I'd love to hear more about why PgQueuer might not have fit the bill for your project. Any constructive criticism or thoughts would be super helpful as I plan future updates and enhancements.

Thanks so much in advance, HN! Looking forward to your candid feedback.
