I made something! Monomarks.at is an open social bookmarking tool along the lines of Pinboard or Delicious, and it's based on ATProto, because I was inspired by @danabra.mov's widely-read post. Log in with your Bluesky account to save bookmarks and browse links posted by the people you follow. 😎

Has anyone built an app to analyse who you’re following on socials? Would love to know, of the accounts I follow, who posts most or least (or at all).

Later this year, we’ll unveil a whole new look for Hanami, Dry and Rom. Here’s a preview!

This will be a huge boost for our projects, I can already feel it.

Thank you to @aaronmoodie.com for bringing this to life! Also to @makenosound.bsky.social who’s already getting our new website into shape.
It’s week 6 of our sponsorship drive, and we have a treat for you — the new faces of Hanami, Dry and Rom!

@craigmod.com enjoyed your piece on Literary Hub. Curious about what you use to take notes as you’re walking. Do you record audio and then convert to text, or dictate straight into Notes etc?

So the Remix / React Router situation has me thoroughly confused. If I'm wanting to start a new 'Remix' project today– which I intemperate as a full-stack app–should I be using Remix or React Router 7 in 'Framework' mode? 🤷

I've been thinking about a substack alternative, where the main selling point is the editor and publishing experience. As well as BYO domains, folks can BYO hosting, as each blog would be exported as a static site. The network is still there for discovery, but there's no platform lock-in.

Sequels and reboots frustrate me – where are all the new ideas?. But perhaps they mark the death throes of our self-referential culture. Let it fade away. A new generation's fresh ideas are waiting to emerge.

If you want to better understand what is happening in the US, read Nexus by Yuval Noah Harari. While the book's main focus is AI, the historical context on how information flows outlines the Populist playbook that Trump is following.
