Hey folks 👋

@simonbs recently mentioned how genuine, human blogging doesn't get the attention from The Algo's, internet's dead, etc.

I suggest a crafty countermeasure:

Swift Blog Carnival.

A host per month, setting a topic, gathering posts from the community. 🔁

To bring the community of writers together and also showcase smart people who don't have an audience.

WDYT? @mattiem @donnywals @twostraws @azamsharp @dimsumthinking @helge @natpanferova @marioguzman

I volunteer to set this up

@ctietze @simonbs @mattiem @donnywals @twostraws @dimsumthinking @helge @natpanferova @marioguzman Interesting idea. I think it will also force everyone to spend some time learning other frameworks, techniques, topics etc.

@azamsharp "force" is a bit strong, but it'll definitely increase the variety for a shared topic!

I kickstarted April: https://christiantietze.de/posts/2026/04/swift-blog-carnival-tiny-languages/

Swift Blog Carnival: Tiny Languages

The Swift Blog Carnival topic for April is open; it is about Tiny Languages. Read what a blog carnival is, why you should care, and how to participate!
