If you have a lot of links you want to share, you have some “solutions” for that, like Linktree and Beacons. So, problem solved, right? In my case maybe, since monetizing content is not my main goal. But using these tools to share your links can be a SEO problem. - Source: dev.to / almost 4 years ago

• A Tiny Yellow Handheld Changed How Duke University Teaches Game Design

  The game dev environment they’re talking about is MakeCode Arcade. I’m also a big fan of it.

  I'm not sure how this reduces the barrier to game developement.

Like https://arcade.makecode.com/ or https://microstudio.dev/ or https://scratch.mit.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
