After 16 years on Twitter, I finally deleted my account completely today. Which sucks, because I love the developer community there, but I just can’t implicitly support it anymore. Hoping Bluesky grows even more to replace that community.

I remember the early years of Twitter, especially the development community. I loved it, the conversations, the friends made, and I'm hoping that BlueSky replaces that. I've stayed on Twitter for years not because of the owner, but the people. There are enough people here now to make this my home.

Shoot…sorry everyone. I was trying to import my old tweets, and it looks like the dates are all today instead of original date. I hope that didn’t mess up anyone’s feed.

I wish there was something like Firebug for native iOS apps. Hover over an element and get details, change style/attributes/text, etc.
