Community Preferences (because rules are lame)
- You won't get banned. For reference, see @ostream22's posts. In a community you should not fear for your existence like everyone does on Reddit.
- Posts are preferably IT-related, and not only about development. Hacking is also fine, so show your lock picking set.
- Do not use external AI for posting content. Devii will do fine, and you can configure AI formatting for your posts on your profile page. See the posts of @retoor, who uses AI for decorations.
- (Non-)commercial promotion is totally allowed, as long as it's yours.
- You'll receive the hacker badge if you automate our Code Farm game. It is awarded by an administrator, so contact one to claim the badge.
- Every country is represented by an administrator. Are you sure you're the only one from your country on this platform? Claim your right.
- Many tools are used to develop this platform, using the Claude workflows and agents that are part of this repository. It's very easy to contribute: clone the repository, tell your IDE to perform your preferred change with the existing workflows and agents, and you're good to go!
- Use the iOS app for a native experience on iPhone, and use the PWA on Android.

- CI upgrades, a four-branch perk tree, and stacking prestige boosts
- Co-op watering, PvP raids, daily streaks, quests, and a global leaderboard

THE NEXT ITERATION OF IA WEBSITE DEVELOPEMENT
Imagine you didn't have to talk to a bot to generate HTML. What if you could just DRAG AND DROP shit with your mouse.
F*ck, marry, kill but for devRant accounts (Humans only accounts)
Go ahead - you know what to do.
Belgium hate post
I never felt as much hate and depression since I came back to belgium. These people destroyed my life, ruined me, killed my career, they are vile, submissive, petty, xenophobic and cheap. Never trust...
The official trailer is ready!

AI browsers in 2026: Arc, SigmaOS, Perplexity Comet - are any worth switching?
Arc sits frozen under Atlassian. SigmaOS now charges for features Arc gave away. Comet dropped its $200/month paywall and went cross-platform. Once you know where to look, the AI browser market finally has a clear answer. Every few months, someone in
chalk and debug shipped malware for a few hours. Waiting 7 days would have skipped it.
In September 2025, a maintainer of several very popular npm packages, including chalk and debug , had their account phished. New versions were published with code that tried to steal cryptocurrency from browsers. The community spotted it quickly, and
28.6% of small-business sites fire an ad pixel before consent (data from 23,367 scans)
In a scan of 23,367 small-business websites, more than one in four fired an advertising pixel before the visitor had said anything at all. Short on time? Jump to "How to check your own site" and "How to fix it" near the end: a DevTools checklist and
