If you’re like us, it’s not unusual to create a new piece of software in just a couple hours. With AI, we’re going from idea to working tool over and over again every day. Dashboards, workflows, little utilities, that type of thing. But what happens when you have to share it? 🧵

AI-made personal tools can't hit the publication threshold unless you go "vibe-code mode" and put on the wraparound sunglasses and lo-fi beats. Tonk makes software easy to share, so it's all rainbows and sparkles for your personal software.

We’re producing software faster than ever. AI has changed the economics of software creation so dramatically that writing code is no longer the hard part.

For ten years I've been chasing the same problem: how can groups of people coordinate without routing everything through a central authority. It's a common failure mode and a wicked problem. At @tonk.xyz, we're working on the most credible answer I've seen; one that is local-first all the way down.

At Heroku, we basically destroyed a generation of folks personal projects when we deprecated various free plans. (My own software died too.) Now Glitch is making the hard decision to do the same: blog.glitch.com/post/changes... The lesson is simple: don't build in the cloud if you want it to last.

this dialogue perfectly captures the problem with "decentralisation" as our guiding principle. we've reached a point where the word has become nearly meaningless through overuse and inconsistent definition. the goalposts constantly move, making productive conversation impossible. 1/12
