Hey,

Gollum leans more “psychopath” than “sociopath,” but let’s not split hairs here.

BTW, Dev.to supports markdown, which is /Chef’s kiss 🤌: perfection in draft form.

I’ll start pulling those drafts and getting them posted here on Dev.to. No point in letting them sit around when they could be out there, finding their people. I’ll clean them up, put them out, and see where it leads.

Thanks for the push. Time to stop guarding the hoard and hit publish.

Hey Zach,

You've got a ton of drafts sitting in Medium and Notion that never see the light of day. It's time to get those unpublished articles out of the archives and somewhere they'll actually reach someone… anyone.

Not to push, but Dev.to seems like a solid space for what you've been working on—plenty of devs who are looking for exactly the kind of nonsense you've been writing to yourself like a sociopath (psychopath?).

Stop letting good work gather dust.
