@adamwathan Would be interesting to compare it to a graph of self employed WITHOUT employees.
I suspect (and hope) that those numbers would account for any drop

As a Canadian whose life has been completely changed by entrepreneurship, it's hard to describe how disappointing this graph is 😕
Hopefully we can turn this around, it's in everyone's best interest to cheer for, celebrate, and support your builders.

@0xDesigner Will be interesting to see how long this bias will go on for.
Even before ai there was an increasing number of solo founders doing more with less, but now small teams are literal rocket ships
English
the biggest lesson i’ve learned as a solo builder is that you have to lie and tell people the product was built by a team.
no one will believe you can make anything useful alone (you can).
and they won’t give it a fair shot because it will be perceived as a hobby product.

🙌 Expo is the best it's ever been, and it's about to get a lot better.
We raised a Series B so we can go faster on the things that matter to you: faster builds, smoother native integrations, and the services to make end-to-end app development a delightful experience.
There is a lot of work to do. This round led by @Georgian_io puts us in position to go do it!
English
@sanketsahu Really nice! Could this be used as a preview tool for docs?
That's one thing react native really struggles with is have live previews of components in docs.
Basically if expo snack doesn't work then you have to use screenshots or recordings...

Introducing reactnative.run 🚨 (open-source)
The fastest way to run React Native / Expo apps in the browser.
Metro bundler mapped to the web with HMR, Expo Router, assets, source maps! Go and try it now!

Okay and who of you couldn't reply to this? Please please only if you couldn't okay?
@levelsio@levelsio
Okay let's see who can reply to this

Spent the last 2.5 hours on my hands and knees smoothing out every connection in the interlocking rubber floor tiles in my gym with a tiny screwdriver.
Even in the age of AI it’s still satisfying to do the brainless tedious work yourself sometimes.

This chart is a good example of the explosion of software creation in the last year.
Resend is growing exponentially but not at the cost of competitors who are still experiencing modest growth.
There is just that much more software being developed 🤯
Zeno Rocha@zenorocha
3 years ago, Resend didn't exist. Now, it's the most downloaded email SDK in the world.

@SimonHoiberg Based on @nikitabier's replies it also seemed that a lot of people would be better off.
Honestly seems like it was just a messaging problem rather than a feature problem.
But also funny seeing people complain when x really shouldn't be a primary source of income.
English
Wow this update upset a lot of people 😅 seriously, if a dip in X payouts hurt that much, yall gotta add more revenue streams.
Nikita Bier@nikitabier
Starting Thursday, we'll be updating our revenue sharing incentives to better reward the content we want on X: We will be giving more weight to impressions from your home region—to encourage content that resonates with people in your country, in neighboring countries and people who speak your language. While we appreciate everyone's opinion on American politics, we hope this will disincentivize gaming the attention of US or Japanese accounts and instead, drive diverse conversations on the platform. We invite creators to start building an audience locally. X will be a much richer community when there's relevant posts for people in all parts of the world.

This is why this system is so cool
You can punish people for posting AI bot spam
And you punish people who follow people who post AI bot spam
So it becomes socially unacceptable to post AI bot spam as it affects everyone's reputation and access to the network now
Lewis@0xLewis_gg
@levelsio If a bot replies, you can go to their profile and unfollow the mutual connection that allowed them in (or reply tagging that person and giving them the heads up they follow a bot)

@reactnavigation It would be good to hear more about the differences and understand the reasoning behind this.
Tbh ever since the dynamic api came out I've really enjoyed the developer experience so I'm curious about the decision to go back to static.
English
If you are building a new app or boilerplate in 2026 and use React Navigation, please use the Static API.
We have done a lot of work to reduce boilerplate further and improve TypeSafety in React Navigation 8.
Unless you really need to build the list of screens dynamically at runtime, you'll likely find that the Static API can do everything you need.
If you remember the Static API from React Navigation 4 and earlier, the new Static API is very different. It's built on the dynamic core that React Navigation 5 brought, so it has a lot of dynamism built-in.
The static parts are only constrained by what we need to make type inference and deep linking automatic.

it's lame to see all the people saying "ha called it i knew sora wouldn't work"
yeah duh, everyone thought that including the people who were working it. they probably learned a lot trying to make it work anyway
for every successful thing that exists a hundred of efforts like this had to fail
and those learnings are fed into making something that ultimately does work and provides you with your steady paycheck
