Hey gang! Looking for some recommendations on issue tracking software that I can run on Linux. Partly so that I can keep track of my hobby dev projects, partly so that I’ve got a bit more to talk about in interviews. My current workplace uses Jira, Trello and Asana for various different projects, which, eh, mostly serve their purposes. But I’m not going to be running those at home.
The ArchWiki has Bugzilla, Flyspray, Mantis, Redmine and Trac, for instance. Any of those an improvement over pen and paper? Any of those likely to impress an employer?
If you’re not working with files, then sure. For coders, putting tickets in the sourcecode enforces locality, and it also preserves history… because most people use a VCS.
But it sounds like you’re using it as a journalling system, and that has different needs.
