He finishes up by expressing a sentiment I've been feeling recently about the web platform in general, I call it webdev vertigo, that things have gotten too complex to fully understand by one person. "It feels like we’ve entered this new phase in the life of CSS where just keeping up with what’s shipping each year is too much for any one person to keep track of, let alone take advantage of".

Update from Lemmy after the Reddit blackout - One of the big winners from the Reddit civil war has been Lemmy. It's a decentralised open source Reddit alternative.

Seems incredibly futuristic compared to my humble linkblog. It makes me wonder if there are any easy ways I could integrate my setup into the Fediverse.join-lemmy.org #
