It’s not like everything has to be about one subject, but some of these people have made being dissatisfied with politics or this country their whole personality and I have no interested in reading that shit every day.

Feels like a lot of people in tech I used to follow managed to get known on social, then just lose all interest in tech and just shit post about politics all day.

Honestly, I haven’t been firing up blue sky as much because it largely consists of random liberal people being angry or otherwise talking shit about people who don’t agree with their politics.

Half the “tech” accounts I was following don’t even post about tech anymore.

At this point the only George R R Martin news worth a shit is when Winds of Winter comes out.

If it ain’t about that, no one cares.

Kind of seems like you should be able to use Groc to do that and just post the damn link anyway

I want it to be my daily driver because I like Panic and I love to support their work, but also because I just enjoy the native Mac app feel.

But historically I've always had to switch due to a lack of quality extensions for linting and such that are reliable in VS Code.

I think Nova by @panic.com should try to capture some of the WP developer market. There are still a lot of folks out there who are using SFTP to deploy or modify files, having that built-in (and well done) is a huge plus.

But the tooling and extensions are still lacking in nova. No real AI support

@rich.blog just curious what do they have you doing all day if you’re not working on the WordPress project as much anymore?

Object.Method() Man @iansvoboda.com · Apr 16

Maybe this is an opportunity for some new blood to be involved with the project. Wen would like to see a greater focus on standardization of API and improving components and hooks.
