That was 2.5 years ago and I missed it. Are you a moderator?

Show HN is only for things you wrote yourself and want to share https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

I'm not a moderator, but there are guidelines for posting and one of them is how often you should repost

https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...

was postet many times in the last 12 months and some users even reposted twice.

It's starting to get confusing/difficult to keep track if something is reposted again or just something with the same name.

Show HN is about showing your own work, not just sth you think is interesting. Doesn't matter if you missed it, still shouldn't have posted it.
I'd say "Shouldn't have put Show HN in the title", otherwise it's a good submission.
Disclaimer I am the author (not OP). I guess the user re-posted by simply copying my original one...
My main gripe was that it was postet by OP as a "Show HN" ;)

Nice work btw always astounded how you keep developing it for so long nearly solo. I was many times intrigued enough to try to switch to OneDev just to try it, but my personal git setup is working too well right now. Never switch a running system runs too deep in me.

Anyway there seem to be discussions taking place so I will cut the noise and stop whining.
