edit: only looking for GUI desktop apps!!
hey #linux people, is there a nice modern app that lets me run arbitrary scripts on a timer on my home pc? like cron style, but with regular notifications if something went wrong or failed? I'm on fedora, running vanilla gnome and i looooove flatpak.

i have some backup scripts i want to run once or twice a week and i'd love it it wasn't just invisibly configured in the text-mode bowels of my computer.

so wait blacksky in addition to running their whole own parallel network that copies all the posts on bluesky also has to make their own software? or is this a choice to like not be dependent on the stack that runs bluesky?

Replying to @sarahjamielewis@mastodon.social
@sarahjamielewis i think what many of "us" (free software likers who are not involved in OS dev its self) have realized in this is how exposed to these demands it actually is. for a long time i had a fantasy version about how these things are produced, maybe influenced from how open source worked in web development; a lot of light touches building something without much funding. but for linux so much of it is really done through paid development by people working at big companies, and they are quite unempowered to do anything about these decisions other than quit outright. or maybe better said it's that there is no preexisting whisper network or informal understanding of solidarity on these issues among the people most deeply involved in implementation, so there's not really any muscle to be flexed and push back as a group?
