this is cool! I've always found the palo alto docs a nightmare to navigate.

https://truepb.net/ - My unashamedly vibe coded strava analysis & athletics results site. I'm no dev but I've used it to up my knowledge in cicd, security, postgres and frontend/backend development.

part of the problem is that most people don't own a pc or personal laptop - they use their phone and apps. None of my friends (35 years +) use laptops other than for work and openly say how much they have regressed technically. Some of these guys grew up with the internet in the early 00's and would be setting up switches for lan partys, using torrents and usenxt, limewire etc. These days they can barely open up microsoft word - but on instagram/twitter they're all over it. Sad really. I would always reach for my laptop first before my phone and I tend to very rarely visit social media sites (other than reddit) on laptop/desktop. I use glance - https://github.com/glanceapp/glance to parse my rss feeds - it's pretty good.
