Today I unfollowed about 120 accounts that hadn't posted in more than ~8 months.

It's a bummer to see so many gone and I hope they return, but my feed has been more active than ever. Plus, I'll likely be more liberal in following new folks for a while.

I did it. Finally. I tested out NativePHP. It absolutely blew my mind.

If you are a mobile developer that gets regularly driven up the wall by #Kotlin, or #Flutter or #Swift... you can pretty quickly now just learn #Laravel #php.
