I have been hosting(and using as a full replacement) a self-hosted youtube alt(called piped). Might switch to this engine as well. Goal is to be fully self hosted! :)
Have been doing full time freelancing for past 4 years on Upwork. I make good money and definitely not $1k a month, there are a lot of bot accounts on Upwork, which i think pollutes the data set.
Have been using Vimium for ages. I generally don't use mouse/trackpad at all while programming. I have got used to it so much, that even when i use tools like Postman, first thing i do is search up hotkeys so it blends in with my mousless workstyle.
For me the most important thing developing a webapp is scaffolding and generators. I have found that generating boilerplate content(components, controllers) is annoying and takes up a lot of time.
Until you add scaffolding/generators the syntax update doesn't give that much value, in my opinion.
Have been using Nintendo Switch for a while(I travel a lot, its great that its portable and can be connected to TV's in hotels). Will definitely check Steam Deck out!
