I just remembered that I read a bunch of comments here back when Threads launched about how Twitter was dead and Threads would replace it. A few months later and Threads is effectively dead. Pretty funny in retrospect.
- paulddraper 3y agoReddit is dead too. (Ignore the fact that it's gone from #18 to #17 global ranking over the last three months. [1]) [1] https://www.similarweb.com/website/reddit.com/ https://www.similarweb.com/website/reddit.com/
- timbit42 3y agoIt's showing as #19 for me: https://www.similarweb.com/top-websites/ https://www.similarweb.com/top-websites/
- paulddraper 3y agoOof dead for sure
- edgyquant 3y agoMaybe not dead, but the opposite of what you suggested
- paulddraper 3y agoI suggested it increased in popularity over three months and provided the evidence. There was a separate link provided which said nothing about whether it increased or decreased in popularity over any timeframe.

- talldatethrow 3y agoHijacking a thread here trying to ask you a php question. Linked below, you said something reminds you to a old times when you were using arrays to work through database results. I still do this, building multidimensional arrays of results to later use. How should/could I be doing it? I'm self taught but built a decent sized webapp CRM/project management saas and am trying to learn a few new things before starting a new project. PS, comically, your style of responding made me want to contact you. Reading some of your post history, we have very similar views on a lot of things. Interesting how that works.

- bakugo 3y agoI already explained how I personally do it in that comment chain: Doctrine ORM and Symfony. Instead of working directly with raw database data as arrays, you work with classes where all the database columns are defined as typed class properties and let the ORM handle the conversion between the two for you. If you're starting a new project in PHP, I recommend giving it a try. The SymfonyCasts tutorials are a great way to start (though sadly they're not free).
