When are you most likely to be active on Dev.to?

Work hours? Nights? Weekends?

Me I'm most likely to be lurking here on nights and weekends. I'm definitely a night owl, so chances are good you won't find me here in the morning lol

What about you? When are you most of dev.to?

My first 5 min of waking up is like that, I have to start cleaning something to wake myself up, after I get to work I normally have a little time left before starting, so I read stuff here :D

I have to start cleaning something to wake myself up

SAME. I intentionally leave dishes from the night before so I can reset my entire kitchen as part of my morning routine πŸ˜…

I tend to trawl the site when taking a mental break from work, so most often I pop on weekday mornings and afternoons (approx 12:00-19:00 UTC).

Between Dev.to, Twitter, Reddit and YouTube ('tis the season for fresh tornado videos after all); then mix in a few office interruptions to disturb "flow"; and it can be bloody hard to crawl back out of that rabbit hole some days! :)

Open office spaces don't help that either! It can be a struggle for sure!

Usually when I'm starting work or at lunchtime (UTC).

I tend to have a quick browse before starting work. But write the most blog material in the evenings :) (I realise I have no posts at the moment, but I'm working on a couple!)
