Great software list from @leeerob

[Lee Robinson @leerob]

When there's competition in DevTools, developers win:

◆ Svelte is pushing React
◆ Remix is pushing Next.js
◆ Prisma is pushing ORMs
◆ Deno is pushing Node.js
◆ Supabase is pushing Firebase
◆ esbuild / SWC are pushing JS tooling
◆ Bun is pushing SWC

What else?

[Jam Shally @jamshally]

@codedweller Sounds intriguing. What are you doing with this?

[Jam Shally @jamshally]

@richfollett You, @sparkydeathcap, and I seem to be the only three people in the world that see this truth

[Jam Shally @jamshally]

@sparkydeathcap Yes! Why does no one else see this?

Internet: "No way! You'll use it to secretly embed us with brain chips!"

Musk: "I literally want to embed people with brain chips."
Internet: "Cool! What credit cards to you accept?"

Wow. I'm literally stunned. Apple just doubled down on their rejection of HEY's ability to provide bug fixes and new features, unless we submit to their outrageous demand of 15-30% of our revenue. Even worse: We're told that unless we comply, they'll REMOVE THE APP.
