Pretty cool stuff, thanks for sharing!

Sure. Efficiency isn't everything, though. At the end of the article there are a few people to get you started. Then you can go to your favorites in that list, and follow some of the people THEY are following. Rinse and repeat, follow boosted folks. You'll have 100 souls in no time.

That's a valid point! I've been searching for places to hangout for a while, sometimes called "campfires". Found a cool Discord with generous front-end folks (that's a broad spectrum!), on frontend.horse.

Sounds good! Sometimes it's hard to keep the momentum. Get back to me if you're stuck!

Let's go, Fred! Join the movement, build a website, share the link, link out, rinse and repeat! :)

 

Rob is a web industry veteran, and his ideas are extremely relevant for the days we live in today. We need a refocus, and a sense of community in the design/web development world.

Want some ideas? :)

 

I dream of a web that fosters healthy conversations, together with personal and intellectual growth. The world is diverse and fascinating, and we can be information explorers together.

It's true that starter packs are a great idea. A lot of innovation can be done around lists, and this is a good example. I second what @sopuli.xyz said, taking it slow on the Fediverse feels good. It's about the quality, not the quantity.

Connected! See you in the Fediverse. :)

[–] john_fisherman@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Any time! What's your handle, I can follow you. :)

I also found about this today, maybe it's useful: https://fediverse.info/explore/people

I mean, if you follow the right people you'll get exposed to the right ideas. Most of the people I follow will not be posting about their kids or their brunch, but about cool articles or things they learned. Or am I missing something?

 

A selection of the apps I use on a day-to-day, on my Ubuntu install. What are your favorites?

 

I said "good riddance" to Apple and got a new Linux-first laptop, then proceeded to note down my first impressions.

Having used Ubuntu and Linux for 20 years, and having had a stint period with Apple, I decided to stick with Linux for good.
