To everyone I argued with about the problems with styled-components over the years:
I’ll keep it short unlike those conversations - told you so 🤣🤣

styled-components maintenance mode doesn't have to mean panic mode.
Our engineer @codey.bsky.social made performant community forks. Linear's already seeing 40% faster renders with zero code changes.
Not a permanent fix, but it buys you time to migrate properly.

styled-components maintenance mode: A 40% faster fork | Sanity
After styled-components entered maintenance mode, we forked it with React 18's useInsertionEffect. Result: 40% faster renders for Linear. Open source solution.

I’ve been working on a new iOS 26 app in stealth mode the last few months and it’s nearly time to share with everyone.

I like Liquid Glass 🤷♂️ It has some problems but so did the iOS 7 Beta redesign.
The accessibility problems I see floating around look like bugs than intentional. The keynote explicitly mentioned the text adapts to the background. It’s not doing that.

Devs that claim we don’t need React anymore aren’t seeing the bigger picture.
Recruitment/Onboarding will be much harder with a slower ramp up to being productive.
LLMs aren’t trained as well on Angular, Svelte or web components and the communities are far smaller.

a lecturer once told me the most important skill for anyone in tech is the ability to communicate and convey ideas and not the code we write.
In today’s world of LLMs and vibe coding, this skill is even more important.

If you can’t context switch effectively then that’s a code smell; your architecture isn’t modular enough.
You shouldn’t need to load a whole bunch of context into your brain to complete a task.

Back in 2020, I developed an RSI. For 7 months, I couldn’t type without pain.
Fortunately, I was able to find a solution for myself! I can type as much as I want now, and I don’t worry about RSIs at all anymore.
I recently published my experience in a new blog post:
