i will always be grateful to @rauchg for writing one of the most influential essays in shaping how I think about interface design:
I didn't realize Guillermo Rauch was so cracked: - high school dropout from Argentina - gets dev job in SF at 18 - builds mongoose - builds Socket,IO - builds next.js then Vercel And for some reason I thought he wasn't a coder??

personally: I would probably use Twitter more if the product was better. For instance, here are my DMs from the past few days.
A lot of the best Twitter accounts have moved to the other site. The ones I’m closest with left recently, a bit reluctantly, bc with so many of *their* friends gone, this place bores them. As individuals their decisions make sense. I can’t blame them. Collectively, though, the smart liberals who left made a lame decision. I can be a real b’tch about it when they DM to say goodbye. But mainly I’m sad.
