Verify Similar Projects #44

Closed SecUpwN closed 8 years ago

SecUpwN commented 8 years ago

Good evening, @Feltzer! I would like to know if we should keep the Similar Projects in our README or if we should add those to a separate WIKI entry (in that case I'd need to create our WIKI first). Reason for this discussion is that I do not want outdated or invalid projects to be recommended in our project README, which could lead users into installing non-working crap. Let me know your thoughts here.

Feltzer commented 8 years ago

Yeah, some seem to be unmaintained. We should probably remove spotimute and indicator-muteads from the list, as both of these haven't seen an update in years.

As for the wiki, I don't think that's necessary. It would be fairly empty with only an entry for links to similar projects. I think we should keep this in the README, as long we check to make sure that the other projects are maintained every now and then.

Thanks @Feltzer, I have just removed the projects you mentioned, but in the long run, we're likely not able to maintain a current list of working projects since there are simply too many. What to do in the long run?

Feltzer commented 8 years ago

True, but I think we should take that as it comes. The three projects we link to are well maintained and working. We don't have to add any new project that comes along to the list, just keep an eye on these three as they follow three entirely different ad blocking methods (dbus-based, stdout-based, blocklist-based).

You're right. Feel invited to add other projects you think are worth being listed there.

Perfect, will do so. Issue clarified (at least in my head) for now. Thank you, also for all the improvements!
