words i don’t like:

- engagement
- content creator
- influencer

isn’t it just:

- you have better discussions here
- you write articles and record videos (or tutorials, or…)
- people trust you

on the open web, frameworks should make space for user choice, including deploy, kv, db, image cdn, font provider + more

I try to use different providers to experience + improve nuxt dx

in that vein, I migrated roe.dev last night to cloudflare pages from vercel

no, the reasons I find @bsky.app compelling are not related to american politics (I have a well maintained mute/block-list for ads, and have also muted most election discussion)

❌ rage-baiting is really unhealthy
❌ twitter decisions seem driven by ego
❌ cool people I want to hear from are getting hurt and burnt out there
❌ monetisation of views twists even good people

I hate to see my biggest inspirations leave. I’ve seen multiple in the coding environment take a political side on the US on X. Some even saying they will leave X if one candidate wins. I think this punishes the readers more than the candidate. Not really a question but I hope we won’t see you leaving because of political stuff. x

yes, I have a tesla - and I love it! πŸ”₯

I'm a bit doubtful of where the company is going though, so I might reconsider in future (or opt out of having a car altogether) - I'd welcome any recommendations πŸ™

Have you ever owned a Tesla?

in honesty, no, we've never discussed moving the nuxt repo anywhere else

I'm an inveterate self-hoster

... but @nuxt is a community project, and github.com is almost synonymous with _social_ coding - it makes the barrier to contribution very low indeed

Did you/the nuxt team ever thought about moving away from github (for example to codeberg) or even run your own instance of forgejo/gitea/gitlab ?

bluesky is πŸ”₯

so sorry if i’ve not yet followed you back - it’s incredible to wake up to 300+ notifications

feel free to drop me a line if we’re mutuals on twitter (though i’ll be going through the list later)

also looking forward to meeting new people here ❀️

I think:

πŸ”΅ -> critical mass of tech folk <-
πŸ”΅ simpler setup + easier to use
πŸ”΅ strong (and better?) moderation
πŸ”΅ decentralised but easier to get your own custom handle

(I'm still a huge fan of mastodon of course)

Why do people migrate to πŸ¦‹ rather than Mastodon? Is it the protocol or just it being more friendly (as in accessible to register etc)? πŸ€” 

What even triggered the move? Change of TOS or something else that I missed?

periodic reminder: if you've written or coded something and it gets deleted ...

... it's not a disaster

πŸ’ͺ you can always write it again - and almost certainly better the second time

(I tell this to myself often)

(this also applies to browser tabs)

just an observation from my ask-me-anything questions

you would not believe how many people have very similar struggles

- feeling demotivated
- feeling like an imposter
- struggling to sleep
- wondering how to organise time or be effective

etc. etc.

πŸ‘‰ you're not alone
