What happened last week

This week, I mostly tried to find a decent alternative to Revue, which will be closed soon. What's interesting - I learned that Revue is unique when it comes to the balance between features and simplicity if you want to help me - head over to the tweet below.

I'm looking for an alternative to #getRevue, but it's not that easy as I thought. I love this feature for adding urls and I only found this working in @NewsletterGlue. And while I love this plugin, I would prefer a SaaS where I can only focus on writing itself. Any suggestions?

And while speaking of Twitter. I'm terrified about its future. It's pure chaos right now.

SDCat scanned 2.6 million domains for public .env files. It turns out you can find some interesting data there. The good news is - there were only 201 public .env files. The bad thing is that there were passwords inside.
