The last two times I shared github.com/NickvanDyke/... on /r/reactjs: top post of the month.

This time: 50% downvote ratio (in the first 30m at least).

I guess it's all about how you phrase it πŸ˜…

It's tough rejecting PRs that unfortunately don't fit the project vision! Hopefully this gets ahead of that.

And it's even tougher wasting time reviewing completely AI-generated PRs 😭

@github.com's Referring Sites is finally fixed! πŸ™ Even months after the last post, github.com/NickvanDyke/... still gets more visitors from Reddit than organic Google searches haha. Clearly I need to work on my SEO or #marketing skills. But #ijustwannacode πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

Finally fixed github.com/NickvanDyke/...!

Required some large changes to the underlying algorithm, but feels good to feel more confident in it πŸ˜„

Enhancing others' workflows and #productivity is fun, but man is it a great example of the 80/20 rule to generalize something that you initially created for your own specific workflow πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

Had enough of the #typescript LSP breaking my #webdev flow and migrated our monolith to the native preview. LSP/intellisense functions (completions, go-to references, error reporting, etc.) are ~10x faster, and type-check builds are 2-3x faster. And feels stable!

feat!: operator Β· NickvanDyke/opencode.nvim@39a246b https://github.com/NickvanDyke/opencode.nvim/issues/40 removes `:OpencodePrompt` - this is a better solution (I think? Lmk if not). Merges `Context:cursor_position` and `Context:visual_selection` ...

Just added operator functionality (ranges and dot-repeat) to my #neovim plugin for #opencode β€” share editor context using the motions you love!

github.com/NickvanDyke/...

Am I the only one that took a while to piece together the operator docs? Or skill issue? πŸ€”
