Self-hosted Linear? A developer built a network of AI agents to automate content creation for a Threads account, which grew to 32K followers, and used Linear for orchestration. To avoid per-seat costs, they developed a lite tracker that evolved into a full project management system, now released as an open source Linear alternative on GitHub. The developer's Threads account was banned, but they continue to develop the project. A story I can't keep quiet about For about a year I ran a Threads account about open source alternatives and grew it to 32K followers. Around a month ago I figured I should optimize the process, so I built a network of AI agents that prepared the content for me and published it through the official Threads API. For the agents to actually work together, I needed a tracker where they could orchestrate tickets. I went with Linear, which is a great tool. Everything was fine, except Linear wants money per seat, and I had zero desire to grow my already bloated pile of monthly subscriptions. That's how the idea came up: build a lite version of a tracker, something Linear-ish. The feature list grew every day, ideas showed up every hour what to improve, what to add. At some point it stopped being "lite" and turned into a full tracking system, so I figured I'd share it with the OSS community and keep developing it as an open source project. Then Facebook banned my Threads account for supposedly violating community guidelines, and rejected my passport verification twice. So I lost the Threads audience, but I shipped a new OSS project as a Linear alternative, and I'm going to keep building it.
