We need to raise $200k to make full use of the discovery phase in the trademark cancelation petition. This is a critical step in protecting the JavaScript name for the whole community.

I really, truly, desperately want to like @obsidian.md but I just can’t.
There’s almost too much freedom to customize it. The plain UX of @notion.com is unbeatable. It’s default opinions are nice. That’s all I want.

Genuinely astounding to me that in the year 2025 setting up a webserver + domain name is still a ~4hr “configure and pray” process

I’m so consistently amazed by the quality of @deno.land.
Not only are my projects drastically simpler, they’re also higher quality! Deno API’s are a great case study of well-written JavaScript code.

You can now use attr() with any CSS property–including custom properties–and it can parse values into data types other than strings.
