This certainly makes sense, it’s been getting tricky to find useful articles even as a junior dev; I’d be curious to see if the move to Forem helping build out different community-focused sites might help?

I recall that discussion, either in DevNews or DevDiscuss, where they talked about allowing narrower, drier communities to grow around different tech stacks.

Maybe this would let folks diving deep into Ruby, Swift, Rust, etc have better curation off the bat because they aren’t pushing through endlessly popular “Complete Guide to React” or “Generic VSCode Listicle” spam. It could also let us novices have a bit more space within those communities to write articles as we gain skills.
