Killed? I think it's alive and well. The Internet is full of gossip and reports that Craiglist's revenue is around $1.3+ billion with a 50+ members team. It's almost the same that OLX Groups generate with a few thousand emplo

Why it's unprofessional? Many people/companies feel the same way. For example, Gergely Orosz https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/job-board-testimonials/ (go to Exceptions). Maintaining a solid stance on matter

When using Blink Shell you can open local files too and connect to vps or use other providers like GitHub Codespaces.

There’s nothing reductive in my comment. I didn’t mention the quality of execution, yet you have to build something to learn from it, even if it’s a bad idea. Having just ideas bring nothing to the table, no matter how good they are. Here w

All of your ideas already exists. It’s not about having ideas or sharing them, because there’s thousands of people who have the same thought. What actually makes a difference is building them.

Everyone can make a great-looking website, and not everyone can make it useful to end-users or goals. Worth remembering that websites are “living” organisms that evolve with your users, and you need to quickly adapt to any patterns that use

Ratio of active vs created accounts is very low, it feels like most of them ware abandon by users after the initial boom. That one that’s stands out is Mastodon which isn’t a surprise. For whole fediverse to succeed it will have to jump out

None of those points matter as this is not how it works, and you have few seconds to convince someone who visits your website without second chance as you have on HN. Potential clients will bounce of your website as I did without even quest

All your comments in that thread are negative. I just see an angry and hostile person who’s rocking a boat on a sea of conspiracy. As Dang said in comment you linked: “That's no fun and does nothing for the community.”.

I mean: It looks like there’s no product behind that, all blog posts are just about laying out a vision with stock photos, and illustrations that have zero meaning. This + design of the website looks unprofessional and I’m not convinced to

Most if not all email providers do that when they get phishing or spam alert (every user can send those) to check out if that message is actually a threat. Maybe the best option for you is to setup your own email server which is fairly simp

iSH is great and has a lot of features, but the only problem I have with it is slowness and lagging.

It’s not Code-Server, but actual VSCode with additional fixes for mobile backed in inside Blink itself. Which is extremely awesome, having this in mind you can connect to variety of services to start coding on the fly(Codespaces, Gitpod, et

For anyone seeking a nice alternative to gmail and not so pricey I recommend Migadu: https://migadu.com . I used them til this month as I moved to iCloud+ Mail with custom domains for convenience. Yet I really recommend Migadu to

Even if the VPS is $5 a month it’s way more than using Migadu[1] which has a $19 plan with “unlimited” domains and aliases. Not even mentioning the burden of configuring, upgrading, and maintaining mailcow. https://migadu.com

I’m enjoying it. As a VIM user I use Blink Shell connected to EC2 instance running Ubuntu. If you’re used to macOS/Linux environments you‘ll not miss anything, and with Mosh support you will be always connected. Users that don’t use VI

iPad Pro 12.9” 2020 model, and moving completely to #iPadOnly way. Do not own any other device, and ditched my MBP after buying iPad. Do not miss anything as a designer/developer and I’m happy as hell now. :-)

If you want to try Blink use https://community.blink.sh/ to get your hands on the free community edition with latest features.

It’s different… and for me in many ways better. I have 12.9 Pro model from 2020 with only folio case and pen. I own an external keyboard but only use it at home. I also have SIM, so more or less I have always a decent internet connection no

The only thing disappointing here is your comment about ONE block on the whole page that talks about connectivity, and you present it as a complete website. The website itself maybe is little outdated but does a great job telling what Blink
