This is so cool!!! 🥹

This coming from my experience of saying "nobody's gonna use my stuff, there's already 10 like it". Turns out, someone already built the 11th. And instead of monopolies, there might be a whole bunch used

Since you asked 😅

In a world with 1 painting, there is no choice. 5-10, there's a choice. If anyone can come up with something, what mattwrs is discovery and fit.
Imho the future of services and tools is much like social media bubbles or the art market.
You can paint it yourself or stumble across the best painting 4u

Open source needs community. Community needs open source. | ZurichJS Conf 2026 Why ZurichJS cares about getting people into open source

@nadja-hesselbjerg.bsky.social from @zurichjs.com shares:
"It all starts with showing up. (...) You'll realize that the open source world isn't some exclusive club. And if you've already contributed? Help someone else do it too. That's what community is for." 💛

But I get you 100%. I've complained so many times that I wish I could go back in time 10-15 years. Not due to regrets, but more for the nostalgia of having lived through an age of tech possibility and unbelievable widespread groundbreaking innovations. Minus social media, but that's another thing...

An idea that helped a bit, was something I heard recently from @karpi.bsky.social, that I had not considered before: once these tools become so widespread that everyone is a user, the inequality would maybe stop and the normalization begin. Kinda like websites in the dotcom bubble and after that...

I am in an abusive relationship with the technology industry Some things I'm struggling with in the technology industry, an appreciation for folk music, and some other thoughts.

I wrote about some things I'm struggling with in the technology industry, preceded by an appreciation for folk music.

Thank you so much for the emotionally-rich wall of text. Either I resonated too much with it, or your writing is just stellar, or both.
Regardless, feeling every word and appreciating you for writing them down. 🫶

Literally @codetv.dev on stream today 🤣

Pew pew pew

Nuxt requests are even faster than that. Just sayin😅

Wondering what's up with npmx? Check out the @codetv.dev stream in about an hour or so <3

Why are devs excited about npmx when everyone seems to be sad about other OSS? When npmx showed up, it created a wave of enthusiastic support and open source collaboration. And because we’re in a moment where most discussion about OSS feels pretty bleak, the joy around npmx…

⚠️ In 90 Minutes

Npmx is creating a wave of enthusiastic support. We’re in a moment where most discussion about OSS feels pretty bleak, the joy around npmx feels unique. Maintainers @danielroe.dev, @whitep4nth3r.com , and @patak.cat share their secrets.

Details:

What started out as a question, quickly turned into an amazing community and excitement.

From my POV, OSS was always unapproachable. Not because people are not warm, but because it's intimidating.

Not so with npmx.

And now I have more confidence to get involved in the future 🫶

This is so amazing! Always amazing to see public recognition for work that brings back excitement into this field <3

the excitement is unreal!

That's so exciting! 🥹

You are definitely our people too :D

You not only brought @nadja-hesselbjerg.bsky.social into our core team, but also brought bsky and the whole npmx community as well haha 😂

much love ❤️

Chapeau, @danielroe.dev!
You've started with a little snowball, which turned into a whole city by the time it reached the alpha valley
And you were also running alongside it, giving it a little shove every now and then. 👏

Can't begin to fathon the amount of work you've managed to put into this, where do you find the time? 🎉

I'm so excited to see where this community will take this forward <3

The virtuous circle The virtuous circle is the most powerful pattern in developer tooling. And it's the myth of the 10x developer that makes it hard to see.

wrote a few words on why I think @npmx.dev might be going places

Announcing npmx: a fast, modern browser for the npm registry Today we're releasing the alpha of npmx.dev – a fast, modern browser for the npm registry, built in the open by a growing community.

npmx is now in alpha: this is our story, as told by our team and friends

@nadja-hesselbjerg.bsky.social wrote an amazing blog post about why we so easily fell in with such an amazing community
