@rrmdp @elonmusk @nikitabier It does not need to make sense. America first and all other countries are second.

Javi is right, I'm seeing the same!
Mr. @elonmusk & @nikitabier this makes no sense for our tech community
What's the point?
Javi Lopez ⛩️@javilopen
So I think the new X algorithm f*cked my account, and maybe yours too. Elon and Nikita said they were going to stop this, but I think they didn't: the new algorithm is clearly showing your content based on your IP geolocation. The proof: Left: 3 months of stats Right: 7 weeks of stats I went from 30% US traffic in the last 3 months (in fact, I had 50% months ago) to 40% Spanish traffic, even though I was writing exactly the same type of content this week, in English. It seems they just want non US people to be unable to reach that audience. It's as plain as that. So, so sad. Three years of working hard to build a US audience by providing value to you all, and now a f*cking algorithm is going to destroy all that. Come on, X. What the hell does it matter where you post from if the content is good?

@neekdyako @zero__ms @convex @solid_js @neondatabase Both are open source and self hostable. -> No lock-in either way.
Your pg has to be hosted somewhere as well.
English
@zero__ms > @convex 100%
Convex:
Is paid, not standard postgres (need to build according to their own database design) and you pay for reactivity.
Zero:
FREE. Faster. Normal postgres. Signal based.
Bundle it with @solid_js signals and @neondatabase and way better
David Siewert@david1gp
Can @zero__ms dethrone @convex as a favorite webdev tech stack, that @theo baited us all into? Since Zero has reached 1.0 and is considered now to be stable.

@venelinkochev you can copy and insert this into the expression box:
pastebin.com/P9nGHijJ
there are some paths related to laravel, ask claude to extend this for your framework if you want
English
Pro tip:
add a Cloudflare WAF rule to block common scanner paths like .env, .git, wp-login
they get blocked at the edge and never touch your server
English
@ddaalee @devagrawal09 @powersync_ And completely unnecessary as well. Could be simple library calls and expressed in code with all the auto complete and type safety. No ones likes to configure yaml files.
English
@david1gp @devagrawal09 @powersync_ Yeah, the sync rules in YAML is rough.
Feels brittle having such key logic in there.
English
@devagrawal09 @powersync_ I somehow never took it seriously.
Weaker DX.
For me it seems like you have to much manual boilerplate, having to write sql queries in yml files.
No authorative server side validation for new writes? Unacceptable
It seems to me like a more earlier/unpolished version of Zero.
English
@david1gp Have you checked out @powersync_ ? Another real contender
English
Comparing Zero vs Convex:
Both
- use sql db underneath (postgres for zero, mysql for convex cloud)
- have own query language
- strong schema support, validation and type safety
- open source, self hostable
English
Want to request a new feature that the @convex team should implement?
Here's how you do it...
> go to ship.convex.dev
> you get 100 convex chips
> request a feature (you must invest 20 chips to request a feature)
> you can back requested features (with chips)
> when features get shipped get 1.5x return on chips
> spin the wheel weekly for chips

@elayadesigns Looks great.
The knowledge cards below seem empty and not really useful?

@CloudflareDev
Why are the token names completely messed up in the cloudflare dashboard display?
Do people all use it on mobile or something for no one to notice it?
English
@jasonfried It's not really fast if you are in asia (some distance away from usa). Every interaction feels like it takes a second or more.
I think you need something like Linears offline sync/write feature to truly be seamless?

Fuck it, we just made Fizzy completely free.
The open source installable version was always free, but the SaaS version was pay. No more. Basecamp and HEY's largess will subsidize Fizzy for all.
So go grab your account at Fizzy.do. It's Kanban the way it should be, not the way it has been. Fresh, fun, light, fast, and perfect for working with agents, too.
An official CLI is coming soon as well. Stay tuned for that.
The native iOS app should be out once Apple approves it (it's in approval right now...). Android is already out, you can get it on the Play store.
(and BTW if you were a paying customer, you will no longer be charged moving forward)

@browser_use but it only works with claude code and not others?
