The fork's homemade sign-in system, which shipped with a baked-in fallback password key, is gone, replaced by a maintained open-source library.

Mike reborn as Misú: a bilingual English/Romanian fork that has moved the whole product onto Cloudflare.
Misú is mihailnica10's take on Mike, and it's already a different product in two visible ways. The name has changed throughout the app, and the interface now ships in English and Romanian with a language switcher. The Romanian translation is the clearest signal here about who this fork is for, though nothing in the work so far names a target market outright.
Under the surface, the bigger story is where it runs. mihailnica10 replatformed the entire backend onto Cloudflare's serverless stack over the course of two days, swapping out the hosted database the upstream project relied on. Sign-in got the same treatment: the original token-based login was replaced with a cookie-based email-and-password system backed by a proper session store.
So far this reads as someone laying foundations rather than adding legal features. The product you'd encounter today does what Mike does, in two languages, under a new name, on cheaper and simpler infrastructure. Whether feature work follows is the thing to watch. The commits are on GitHub if you want the details.
What's in it
- Misú rebrand The fork has its own identity. User-facing naming across the app now says Misú, not Mike.
- English and Romanian interface Full internationalization with a language switcher. Romanian is the only added language so far, which says something about the intended audience.
- Runs entirely on Cloudflare The backend was rebuilt on Cloudflare's serverless platform, replacing the upstream project's hosted database and server. A leaner deployment story than the original.
- Rebuilt sign-in Email-and-password login with cookie-based sessions replaces the upstream's hand-rolled token auth, and works across origins.
