Every time @kaydacode shows up in a thread, it's with something helpful or fun to say. She seems like a brilliant iOS developer, but mostly demonstrates great care for the wellbeing of other software developers.

@brendazam is Wonder Woman in her new career, a great role model for any budding developer because she asks great questions that encourage discussion. She's extremely coachable, which is a quality most of us struggle with, and her positive attitude is contagious! There are so many inspiring #beginners stories here, and hers is one of my favorites.

Tears of joy! Thanks a lot Jesse! It's an honor that you think that about me and I think one of the most important parts it's that the community of Dev.to is amazing, there's always someone ready to help you. I'm extremely shy sometimes, more when I have to talk or write in English, but even with all the grammatical errors you all give me your support, I'm very thankful for that.

Please, consider me a friend and if I can help in any way, be sure that I'll do it.

I also love the @vickylai posts, she always brings something new to the community of great value.

I agree with Brenda here. I have really enjoyed your posts about different perspectives on the issues facing our community.

Edit Oh yeah, and I also loved your article describing the bot to remove your Twitter comments after a period of time. The sentiment of that article resonated with me.

I really appreciate any time I see @mortoray in a comments thread. He's got some amazing insight and perspectives that regularly challenge how I think about things.

I also deeply appreciate @tux0r . Not only does he often contribute his years of experience with his signature wit, but he's always good for some friendly banter about old school vs. new school coding.

Also, can't forget @ben , for helping me plug into this EPIC community in the first place (and for his co-founding it)!

As controversial as he may be, @tux0r has really helped me think about the way I build software.

@K 👓 also has some great advice for javascript developers

@dmfay is just awesome. She's always got great stuff. I've learnt so much from her.

@mrwesdunn left me a comment on one of my first posts

In it, he said that he was inspired to check out Clojure because of my article. Something I'd written was both helpful and inspirational to at least one person, and that has inspired me to continue to write posts about concepts, languages, and my side projects. So... thank you Wes!

@annarankin authors really interesting posts -- not just technical ones but human ones about motivation and careers. My favorite is How Art School Prepared Me for Programming. I also really liked Building a Graph in SQL Land!

@ben has created such an amazing community here - I so very much appreciate the work he, @jess and the rest of the team have done to keep it welcoming and positive. Also love that he shows up in many comment threads contributing to a great convo!

I also want to shoutout to @vaidehijoshi and her beginner posts - I've been able to point a lot of people to her posts with great feedback, the way she breaks it down is amazing.
