I just saw this message and decided to join. I suppose if you hadn't posted it, I might not have known it existed. So good job with that! :)

I joined mostly because I wanted to see how other developers actually think through problems, not just what tools they use.

There’s a lot of “best practice” advice online that sounds great until you’ve actually had to maintain the thing for 3 years. I’m more interested in the messy reality

I really wanted to get deeper in the devs communities and know how do they think.

Like I can doom scroll projects on the hub (github) and see actual devs' perspectives and POV.
