A LinkedIn alternative for builders, developers, and founders to share startup confessions and honest opinions.
LinkedIn is where people show what they want others to see. LinkedOut is the anonymous developer community where people say what they actually think. No trackers, no logs.
I'm building a platform that actively scans your code and reports you to your manager if you use too many `any` types in TypeScript. Looking for a cofounder.
Next.js is massively over-hyped and most of you are building complex SSR apps when a simple static HTML site with vanilla JS would have been 10x faster.
I left FAANG because the entire culture is just pretending to work while waiting for your RSUs to vest. Small startups are the only place you actually build things.
I secretly outsource 80% of my startup's 'AI-powered' backend to a team in the Philippines who literally just type out responses manually. We just raised a $3M seed round.
AI isn't going to replace developers, it's just going to expose how many 'engineers' only know how to copy-paste React components. Real engineering is safe.
