I like the iPhone Air. Who else wants one?

interesting. how is it going? what is the motivation and goals?

I've only mocked up the repo page but I've forked isomorphic-git so it's coming along nicely. The motivation has been off and on for years but the recent GitHub news (becoming part of Microsoft) encouraged me to try again. The goal is to have an identity (unlike the current code forges who aren't SourceHut) and be useable to me in the short term.

I'm making my own GitHub social.coop/@netop...

I've been using Claude MCP to rewrite the Handshake full node software into Deno and it's amazing watching it work.

The API is working, see subreply.com/api. I added all GET endpoints using Gemini CLI. Now I need to find iOS and Android developers to build native apps.
👽 Paul Webb
Pretty sweet

That's an interesting trade off: deciding whether to be able to compare release dates versus feature drift in version numbers. I guess release dates is more concrete, but it's hard to tell if version 2025.07.22 is that different from 2025.07.15
👽 Paul Webb
Same with v3.2.1 and v3.2.14 and v3.3.0 so hopefully there's a CHANGELOG

I agree, permalinks to posts could be easier to find. Looks like when I click "reply", then I see the whole thread (I think), but feels like clicking the greyed out post should lead to the permalink,.or something along those lines.
👽 Paul Webb
I agree, I click there all the time.

I guess it's that time of the season again where I come up with silly projects for myself while looking for a new job.
👽 Paul Webb
Hear hear! I just updated chronver.org and its module. This job market is tough so my search became passive.

I'm hesitant to use to another product from The Browser Company considering how they've treated Arc. I switched to Zen for most things and have been using Chrome for the few things I want/need Chromium for. I'll agree Dia looks pretty though.
👽 Paul Webb
I wish Zen was smooth for me. After using Dia as my main for a week, I went back to Arc.

I implemented CVs. I don't have a personal website any longer. My Subreply profile is my website.
👽 Paul Webb
Oh that's interesting, I thought you meant you were creating a different app, not a feature for Subreply.
👽 Paul Webb
Kinda considering this keyboard... mdrkeyboard.com
🏒 Lucian Marin
I also want to create a dedicated site for jobs called NetworkXP that will write to the same database. I feel inspired by Nostr, same protocol, different apps.
👽 Paul Webb
Also dogfooding is the best way to develop
🏒 Lucian Marin
I want a clean alternative to LinkedIn. Also while working on resumes, I figured out how to do an API for the entire site. I asked Gemini to translate HTML endpoints to JSON endpoints. Auth will be token based.
👽 Paul Webb
Yes please! I can't wait to use your version
👨🏻💻 Moroni
I'm waiting for the public beta! How is the dev beta? Is it stable?
👽 Paul Webb
I haven't had any issues with it
🏒 Lucian Marin
They toned down liquid glass effect in iOS 26 beta 3. Apple should remove it entirely.
👽 Paul Webb
I disagree, check out this guy's work dribbble.com/shots... What Apple needs is better design leadership
🏒 Lucian Marin
Well, you can try nostter.app and freefrom.space clients.
👽 Paul Webb
Freeform looks nice, I've bookmarked both for if/when crypto stops feeling yuck to me.
