I agree so much with this. I used Replit extensively to prototype things in different languages and share my work with my teammates, who could then suggest tweaks to my ideas. We never came close to the limits of the free tier, but I paid f

I loved Blue Wave. My first "real" open source C program loaded your editor and tacked a signature onto the text when you exited. I then set that program as the editor in Blue Wave and got signatures on my BBS posts just like on U

It's moreso the fact ActBlue shares your contact info with (seemingly) every politician they support, so you're constantly sending STOP to candidates you've never even heard of.

Yeah, I can kind of explain that as much as anyone can I guess. Someone made a page called The Far Side as a content farm. Great nostalgic brand for Facebook's main demographics = easy engagement. There's only 4,337 actual The Far

This is giving me flashbacks to Web 2.0. We won’t need web sites anymore! Everything will be an API and we can have our own custom front-ends to all these services! It sounds great on paper. If I were selling widgets, I might want an API so
