Show HN: Pin My Workflow
Last friday i went through a bunch of our workflows and started pinning their hashes... it got annoying so i created a little app to assist, it is quite simple, you can add a list of workflow org you are ok with version tags (if you want to keep them up-to-date) , as the app search through the repo and find dubious workflow, it will prompt and let you know what hash it is updating it to and link for you to verify... if you accept, it add to config and automatically replace the ones that matches the same version tag in the future, saving you time. The config can be saved in same repository so you can rerun anytime.

Show HN: Wiederhol – GitHub for Checklists
Greetings!
My wife and I built a collaborative platform for reusable checklists.
Users can share templates of checklists with few select users or everyone, copy templates of other users (like forking a repository on github), submit suggestions for checklists (like opening a PR on github).
I've got the idea after reading Atul Gawande's 'Checklist Manifesto' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Checklist_Manifesto). Plus I kept forgetting things when going to the office, gym or traveling.
We've tried a few other checklist apps, like Microsoft To Do. But they all seem more geared towards one-off lists or lists that repeat on schedule. Plus web versions and collaborative features always felt like an afterthought.
Wiederhol is free for private use.
iOS users can install our app via https://apps.apple.com/de/app/wiederhol/id6739186169. Android users can install https://wiederhol.com/ as a PWA (Progressive Web Application).
Tech stack: Ruby on Rails, React, PostgreSQL, https://dokku.com/ for hosting on Hetzner, https://pwabuilder.com for the iOS app.
PS: Wiederhol means 'repeat' (imperative verb form) in German.
