everyone tells you how beautiful error handling in go is, but no one tells you that you can't have stack traces in #golang

unless you do some extra shenanigans

Honestly suprised no one compared Bluesky with Reddit. Reddit pulls your feeds from each sub reddits and similarly Bluesky pulls your feed from different PDSes
The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

Bluesky, the micro-blogging platform
I always enjoy Dan's threads explaining how Bluesky works—and also strongly identify with the fact that he keeps meaning to write a blog post but instead ends up writing an infinite number of threads

okay, but how come both your and hailey’s data appears on bsky.app? the bluesky application backend *aggregates* information from personal repositories — kind of like how google aggregates information from personal websites

in atproto, applications *aggregate* data from users’ data servers

When 🦋 first came around, I tested it with dummy id. But none of my twitter ppl were here. Now I see a lot of dev twitter here. Seems like a nice place. Like old twitter. Hope it becomes a habit to check bluesky instead of twitter
