Vietnam is doing pretty well actually.

Omg so much tech jargon in this comment

A federated search engine sounds terrible tbh, how would that even work?

Well yeah, what did you expect? The fediverse is brand new while goodreads is at least 15 years old (without looking it up). I have people from high school on my friends list there and I’m in my late 30s.

It goes without saying that they have more users and therefore more reviews. That stuff doesn’t happen overnight.

They also created TypeScript which is a huge improvement over js imo. And with C# you can use Mono, so you really aren’t locked into MS automatically.

Plus, they made VS Code free. I hate MS but they do make solid tools for developers.
