Shameless plug: I run https://tefter.io a pinboard alternative which supports importing your bookmarks from pinboard and even has team collaboration features.

Another thing worth trying, is connecting a Livebook instance (see: https://livebook.dev/) to a running application. Keep in mind Livebook allows for multiple users to work on the same notebook at once so this can come handy in pair-programming / debugging situations.

> All these technologies are just tools and you decide what tool you choose to get work done

Setting priorities is hard and developers want to try new shiny stuff for fun and also to feel up-to-date.

It usually goes like this, some developers pitch framework X, promising to improve metric Y. In the process many parts of the system change, making it incredibly hard to validate the improvement on metric Y. There's also lack of incentives to validate tech choices. On the other hand being familiar with many frameworks makes some devs feel more senior compared to their colleagues or competition.

Backend development suffers from this as well, you'll be surprised to learn how many nano-scale companies, employing a handful of developers practice buzzword-driven development, with a stack consisting of microservices, Kafka, NoSQL, lambdas.

I've seen that, it's so scammy. I feed bad for people who'll fall for it.

What can we do to improve financial literacy so that nobody ever takes investing advice from a bus ad?

It was indeed mostly media. There doesn't seem to be an option to limit the maximum size for media, or for remote backups.

Second that. I hear back my own voice, it drains the battery and the connection is almost always choppy.

I wanted to be able to use Signal to replace whatsapp, telegram and FB messenger. I've convinced some of my friends to install it, but none of them are happy with it.

On both mobile and desktop sometimes messages take hours to appear and on mobile it reserves ~2GB of storage for no apparent reason.

I trust that people behind Signal are brilliant got the security right, but the UX is simply not there yet.

The worst thing about "awesome" lists is that they're not searchable and as you say, they tend to have out of date links.
