Liveblocks is going open-source!
Today we've opened up the sync engine server that powers Liveblocks Storage and Yjs on our platform. We've also built a local dev server for testing your @liveblocks app locally, try it in your app now:
$ npx liveblocks dev
Nice, @typefully now also supports posting to Bluesky! typefully.com/changelog/publ…

Seriously, how long are you going to stay here while it declines into a full-on nutjob billionaire's one-sided megaphone? I'm at bsky.app/profile/nedbat.com
Hello tech friends! 👋
I'm going to be posting less here in the bad place each week, and going to be posting more in the good place instead.
🦋 Just come say hi there!

It truly is a much nicer place. No ads, no algorithms, no auto-playing videos, real humans, more authentic again. A breath of fresh air. 🦋

Actually, technically there is “an algorithm”. It’s just that you have choices: bsky.app/profile/danabra.mov…

New @liveblocks hook just got published—I recommend you use it!
`useSyncStatus` tells you if any part of your app is still synching, and lets you create a quick spinner component. This is global, meaning it works for all hooks, methods, extensions, and components.
We just released Liveblocks 2.12.0, which features a nice quality of life improvement to display a "Saving…" badge for your app more easily.
Or prevent tabs from closing before changes have been persisted.
Read more here! github.com/liveblocks/livebl…
To enable it, simply upgrade Liveblocks and opt-in by setting `preventUnsavedChanges` to true on your LiveblocksProvider (or createClient call).

That’s it. I’m so ready to leave Twitter behind at this point. Bluesky is a bit more like “Twitter from the good days”. Hope to see many of you on the other side too! Find me on @nvie.bsky.social 🦋
