   It is a nice mini-blog, it's for free and such but

   As a mini-blog, it is a nice alternative for Medium to publish and share information about programming.

   However, the community and the organization are biased toward social justice (and they are open to it). You can read its Code of Conduct, it is so vague and politically leads (I prefer a term of service because it defines fair rules for everybody). So it alienates developers that we don't care about politics in pro of people that want to talk about any other topic such as sexuality, how women are unprivileged, and such. It even mandates to use inclusive language. Good grief.

   My main complaint is the quality of the community. It is not StackOverflow (so we don't want to ask for an answer here), and most of the top topics are clickbait, such as "how to become a rockstar developer in ... days", "100 tips to become a better programmer" (and it doesn't even talk about programming).

   Technically this "mini blog" site allows us to use markdown, and it is okay. However, the whole experience is really basic. Even the template is ugly.

   👍 Pros:    Free

• Low-cost, one-off unmoderated usability testing platforms

  Lookback, Usability Hub (now called Lyssna) and Validately but have been spoiled by former employers who had the budget for usertesting.com so I'm pretty out of the loop on low-budget options. TIA! Source: over 2 years ago

• Interview recruiting?

  I need to recruit 5-6 parents/grandparents for a study and I'm having trouble finding a company I can use (aside from usertesting.com since they tailor to large companies and I'm doing freelance work). Every company I've come across offers recruitment for surveys, but not interviews. Source: over 2 years ago

• iOS User Testing App Won't Open

  Anyone else having problems with the iOS UserTesting App? Mine just opens and shows the logo, and stays there. I can see multiple tests available on usertesting.com, but can't open the app. I have a iPhone 13, updated to 17.1. Source: over 2 years ago

• What Is AI Agent Tool Calling? MCP, Function Calling, and A2A Explained (2026)

  That is the gap Arcade.dev is purpose-built to close. Unlike a routing gateway that simply proxies requests, Arcade is a full action runtime. It's a secure execution environment for production agents with per-user authorization, vaulted credentials, structured audit logs, and hosted tool execution. It delivers a hosted catalog of over 8,000 pre-built agent-optimized MCP tools, designed for agent intent rather than... - Source: dev.to / about 9 hours ago

• Active players looked real until we asked which sessions counted

  Outside PostHog, the acquisition picture did not match. Real arrivals were mostly organic Google Search. In Search Console, we had not yet hit the first “30 clicks from Google Search in the past 28 days” milestone. We had only just started posting on dev.to, so that channel was not a material source either. - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago

  ZeroDrop ships an MCP server that exposes exactly those three tools. Install it into any MCP-capable client:. - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago

• 🐘 Like... TypeScript for PHP? Yes. And it's not what you think

  In the previous parts of this series, we explored how PureScript acts as a quiet rewrite of the Web, offering a sanctuary of mathematical precision above JavaScript, and how its universal polymorphism allows it to target wildly different runtimes like Node.js, Erlang's BEAM, Chez Scheme, etc. - Source: dev.to / 4 days ago
