I have a bad habit of using novel combinations of tools on every side project. And then 80% of the time spent on the project is just fighting to make those things play nicely together.

Silksong coming out less than a week after the next Path of Exile 2 update puts me in a tough spot haha.

I'm falling down the "before I can start this project, I need to make this other thing" rabbit hole and now I'm seriously considering writing my own CRDT library.

Tried SST on a project recently and now I'm not sure there's a reason to use anything else haha.

I appreciate how I never start reading a post on here only to have new posts load and push it off screen. Even if there's a loading state sometimes.

I like the threaded view, but I don't see a way to collapse a thread when I'm done with it (at least on mobile). If the account has enough followers you can basically only see the top reply and the responses to it.
