Ask HN: Moving to DC in 2023?

Hey folks, I work remotely in the open-source space, and I'm considering a move to the DuPont Cirlce / Logan Circle area in DC? Any DC folks on here have advice? How is the tech/startup scene in 2023? Not interested in ever getting a security clearance or working on anything in the defense industry, is there a tech presence outside of that industry? Thanks
