#introduction I'm an indie dev building web things in public, mostly on Rails. Two right now:

  • trainedon.me, a free dated record of which AI tools train on your prompts, with the clause quoted old vs new.

  • openstage.dev, a public page that builds itself, helping you showcase what you build in public

I'll mostly post receipts here: when a vendor quietly changes its training terms, the old words next to the new ones, or when I ship a new feature or product. #privacy #rails

The DHH Problem

Ages ago, when I was still a student, I taught myself Ruby on Rails for my senior thesis and fell in love. Fifteen years later, and I’ve used Rails at every job I’ve ever held in the tech industry. Fifteen years, and I still love Rails! But there’s something rotten at its core, and we share a name.

This morning in #Amiko, the community #RailsFork:

  1. 138 people now in the Matrix space at https://matrix.to/#/#amiko:matrix.org

  2. We've had success in running some major #Rails apps on experimental forked versions of both rails and railties, and at running our equivalent of rails new.

  3. We're building community governance using Sociocracy: https://sociocracy30.org/

  4. Work progresses on website, brand, and determining a non-placeholder name

This is happening, and we need YOU!

Some updates and stats for #Amiko (#Rails fork): ~650 boosts for the “this is happening” post. That’s *huge* numbers for the Fediverse, in my experience. 98 people in the matrix space as of right now. Should break 100 shortly. Code exploration has started, we’re working out how to do this. If you run a podcast or tech news blog, I’m happy to talk to you about all this, DM me. We need your help, *especially* if you’ve ever been involved in Rails internals. https://matrix.to/#/%23amiko:matrix.org

A couple years ago, I wanted to be able to explicitly define configuration on a #rails app, and have that provisioned from multiple possible sources (environment variables, or config file). That gave SmartConfig: https://codeberg.org/dmathieu/smart_config Fast forward to now, and the awesome benefit of having an explicitly defined config: auto-generating the doc for the #cookifed available configuration is straightforward. https://cookifed.dev/docs/self-host/config/

RE: https://mastodon.me.uk/@Floppy/116940067151749214 This is actually happening; we're building a community to execute a bigotry-free #Rails fork (29 people and increasing at time of writing). Come join us, we need your help and expertise. https://matrix.to/#/#amiko:matrix.org

I am ashamed of the fact that I’m stuck on #Rails because of the sunk costs of what I’ve already built, as are *so many* other project like Mastodon. We cannot “just move”, the cost is enormous. The Rails core team seem utterly compromised and under his spell. Nobody will speak out. We need a hard #RailsFork. Now. And we need to coordinate to do it together and build a team. I’m in. Who else?

Rails is launching a "reference apps" page. There are hundreds of open-source #rails apps, but they only found 3 ... and they're all maintained by (racist) #DHH's company ... At this point, it's a cult. https://rubyonrails.org/docs/reference-apps
Reference Apps — Ruby on Rails

DHH has now gone even more full “send ‘em back where they came from” along with “stop trying to fix climate change” and “AI hypercapitalism yay” I cannot express enough, FUCK THIS WHITE NATIONALIST ARSEHOLE, and anyone not wanting to cut the #Ruby and #Rails communities ties with him should be *fucking ashamed of themselves*.
