I was on a late night drive from Edmonton to Calgary last Sunday after dropping my son off at his university. I decided to listen to some podcasts to keep from getting tired while I drove. I listened to one on Indie Hackers where Ben talked about dev.to and what led to its creation. I listed to him describe the kind of community it had become and just knew that I wanted to be a part of that.
Thank you for all the countless hours and patience that you and your team have put into making dev.to what it is. I look forward to being a part of this community for years to come.
Wow, thanks! We've definitely had an influx of awesome folks since @csallen had me on. Thanks for being one of them.
Thank you for putting all together. dev.to is the community I wish I had when I started my journey over a decade ago.
I'm glad many, many devs don't gotta go thru what others (like myself) had to learn the hard way.
Thank you for being with us from early on Jose! We needed early members to help carry us to this point and your contributions along the way have been so amazing.
You’ve built such an incredible and supportive community. Hats off to you and the team!! 🎩
This site helps so many devs (new and old) on a daily basis.
Thanks for all your work 👏
I can't express how much I love being a part of this community and how it has managed to be the friendliest dev website I've ever come across. I'm never afraid to post anything on here, and it allowed me to first start writing articles. Thank you!
Amazing, thanks for being part of it!
Thank you for fostering this wonderful community into what it is today and I'm so grateful I've been able to be a part of it. This is easily one of my favorite sites on the Web and I love coming and reading what everyone has to say. Here's to years to come!
Yay, thanks so much!
The platform and the community are indeed impressive! Checking out DEV posts before starting out the workday has become a ritual, either to learn something new or get inspired.
I am yet to make my first post, but I'd like to contribute with some writing about Ruby and Rails. Maybe I can get something out before the new year. Cheers!
Thanks to you for making this site, community, and making it living everyday !
@dev.to team: you have made something amazing here. It has become a venue for new developer to become better and bitter vets to become more human. Your contribution to the world of development could never be over staged. I wish more people were like you. ❤️ dev.to
No Ben, big thanks goes to you.i used to follow some dev articles on medium up until a whole lot of them started placing a price tag on their knowledge. But in dev.to, the opportunity to tap and return to the knowledge bank of like minds is just priceless. The things i have learnt (ranging from life to profession ) on this platform are just countless. Pity, i have not contributed more to the community. I wish to change that really soon. Once a again, a really BIG thanks to you Ben and the rest of the entire DEV crew for making me a better professional.
Seeing dev grow other the past year and a half (I think) has been a beautiful sight, with many members coming and going (and recursive), and the mountains of content that's posted it has truly become a wonderful place for developers to come chill out, learn new things, teach new things and make new friends. From the day I joined dev has grown very rapidly. Thank you all in the community, the team working at dev and the community members working on the open source version for making dev what it is today.
You're welcome 🙂
Im very new to the community but I don't forget the moment when I accidentally found it...
I don't really know a developer by real and the less I know are not really passionated (after work) they are more like "I love my work but after work I don't want to talk about development".
I personally can not/don't want to stop to think about new technologies new things to learn upcoming events or Tipps how I can improve myself as a developer or read stories of others.
But in the last month before I found this community I got very frustrated cause I started to think maybe I'm not good enough cause there is sooooooo... much to learn and I don't knew where to start.
Also atm it's very busy at the company and I don't had a way to relax Aso.
And one night during a weekday I could not sleep like often in the past month cause of the frustration and the inner stress.
But this time I decided to get rid of this bad feelings and thought about if I really want to stay a developer...
Of course the answer I came to was definitely YES.
And so I spent the whole night to find intonations and communities.
Most of the communities I found were very specific but I was searching for a community were multiple aspects are discussed. (Development, mental tips and discussions, story reports, passion reports,..)
And then I found this community on the Google discover app on my phone.
It was like a lightning went through my body. There are passionated people discussing so many different aspects of technology and development and also so much helpful mental stuff I think I already read about 50 threads before I even registered here just because I was so excited :D
Is not long time ago but you already helped me sooooooo much.
Thanks to everyone of you.
Love what you wrote!
