Didn’t their last CEO Mira start a new company this week 👀

True. I think despite their efforts to stay ahead of the curve, the hype is slowly wearing off and they’re not close to coming up with a next-big thing. Anthropic and even Deepmind have caught up to their level now and Altman won’t get his for-profit deal.

That being said, I understand a lot of these decisions were made deliberately to keep you locked in. Like no way you hired staff engineers to spend 2 years building component variants to ship some fucking machine generated css slop that’s barely of any use if you’re coding more JavaScript in.

Oh you mean their $400 priced model that they had to ship in a week to stay relevant and explain why they’re spending the entire GDP of a Latin American country to build a server farm in the middle of Texas?

Vivaldi even after being a reskin of Chromium works like a powerhouse, makes you wonder how much better it would’ve been without it under the hood

It’s been a delight using it. I’m not a really an engineer so haven’t used it quite heavily, but I do notice how light and snappy it feels, even when working with a small codebase. The lack of bloat from VSCode is another good plus ))

After reading that reply thread I’m convinced Bluesky isn’t really all that idiot-proof either

Super neat, if I were you I’d try playing with swup.js for some page transitions using the same effect, might work well — just a thought 😌

This one’s the exact same take but in a different tone haha (and I agree)

I’m not saying these new chat interface IDEs are bad, I personally love @v0.dev and have been using it quite consistently. But I’m quite iffy when remarks like ‘we’re not hiring junior developers anymore’ get thrown around.

I knowwww; Quite often I spot something off with my grammar in a post, and I repost the whole thing once again because OCD, and people in my following go — ‘I swear I’ve seen this before’ ))

I know a lot of people have come over but don’t really see them be as active as on posts, it’s sad ://

I reposted lmao, had a grammar mistake

Tried something similar with the current US administration and parallels with the Third Reich (a bit of a far reach, I know) — Google refused a response where Deepseek gave me factual evidence to tell me I was, in fact, reaching.

I think that’s probably something I’d expect to see on a link for a page section as opposed to one for an outbound link. The active state implies current locale, atleast in my head. I could be wrong here tho lol

Been on the lookout for something like this, I’d love to join ))

There’s too much friction using a code file in builders like Webflow atm. Ofc it’s easier said than done haha.
comment in response to

Webstudio’s done such a good job with a lot of it so I really trust the vision and the roadmap with this one. One thing the team could get expand a lot on is the UX whilst using custom code, like syntax highlights, inline class and variable suggestions, sitewide script files, etc.

The time I spend cleaning up my desk setup adds to the productivity hours for me (I can barely function otherwise) 🤝🏼

And I have a feeling that exact gap is what's Lovable's trying to get their hands on with the 'visual edits' feature that came out this week.
comment in response to
post
There's a big gap today with how builders like Webflow don't really want you to write code, where imo, they (at least Webflow) could've worked w the idea of being a VDE over a low-code builder. Maybe wasn't as viable pre-LLM, but today an inline editor like Cursor within a visual builder, vv viable.

Any reason to go for Kagi over Duck Duck Go? I’m on a de-googling arc myself

At least Cortana sounded cute when it was around; Siri has no charm, on top of being stupid all the time.

A common problem I’ve had with most browsers was how unfinished they looked. Vivaldi solves this to a great extent, with a theme editor and a lot of control on what goes where. Not a big fan of the extra bloat it comes with (initially) though.

I’m still a bit iffy about it running on Firefox. Interface isn’t super clean and the number of extensions aren’t as good. I think I’ll wait (forever) for a lightweight chromium browser instead 🤝🏼😕

I mean, he’s DesignJoy. I don’t think he’d have anything better to say even if he was on Bluesky.

As if the team wasn't shipping fast enough, there are wizards like you, who ship better features even faster 😭

I use Logitech G304 Wireless, very low latency and quite minimal for my use, which is mostly design work. Been using moth the mouse and the software for close to a year now, love it to the core )) — and less buggy than Logi's own software haha 3/3

Install's fairly straightforward, it detects buttons as you click them and then you can set your keybinds accordingly. Plus smooth scroll, menu bar toggle etc. 2/3
