people really be flocking from the other place ☕️ not convinced on being overly present anywhere yet, or even if there's a desire to be honestly, social media was a covid experiment that got a little out of hand for me

prior to that, i jus' built things because i could and i like doing it that is still the case somewhat but at some point the scale flipped and it almost became like an obligation. "need to build, need to post, need to feed the algorithm"

think my end goal would still be: do that full-time build education material full-time on building UI it's a double-edge sword, being "social" only helps with those goals

but the insight gained over the last couple of years from becoming what i thought would be "great", is ultimately, exhausting

I feel this very strongly (and I started pre-covid). I really believe in doing developer education, but to do it sustainably for money means always feeding an algorithm which means you end up making "content" instead of education and always around what's trendy instead of what's important...
