Just saw this and wanted to say congrats!

If you're willing to pay, IFTTT has a Twitter follower action (available on the cheapest tier). For a while, I used this to track malware and post webhooks. Worked pretty well.

Sure, why not?! I added you... seems like it takes a little while to show up. If you're not on the list by tomorrow, ping me again and I'll try again.

Hopefully in the next week, maybe two. The blocker is ARM64 support. We need an Azure spot instance to compile properly, then link it up to GHA. That should put us back on track.

I'll reach out as that part of our effort becomes more tenable. We're laying some groundwork now (thus stretched thin atm). For now, I just wanted to get on your radar and support your return to this effort. There is so much opportunity w/ standalone distro for JS devs!

It's a bit premature, but we're planning to build a universal packaging tool for Node/Deno/Bun (w/ cross-platform installers, code signing, etc) into our product. I might ping you up if we need help. I'd be happy to share feedback too (even if we don't need help).

I currently do about 45K stars worth, serving an estimated 12-15M users. github.com/coreybutler

Sounds expensive.

The successor project we're working on at @author.io supports macOS too (Linux too, eventually). The pictured notification comes from the small part of the new app that we embedded in NVM for Windows to help begin transitioning folks to the new app. TLDR; there will be a macOS version too.

Thanks!! This is just a teeny tiny bit of what we've cooked up for the successor project.

I see it as a risk v reward model capping the reward w/o capping risk.

Businesses can't earn until someone does the early legwork. The NFP model might work once that point is reached, but I don't see how it gets there to begin with unless there is an imbalanced reward for imbalanced risk/effort.

I said profit too.

What attracts investment w/o profit? Who seeds a non-profit at that scale on principle alone?

Maybe I'm too pessimistic, but I can't see anyone rallying enough support to underwrite/establish this.

Nothing wrong with profit. The problem is greed.

What motivates anyone to provide insurance if there is no profit?
