I hadn’t heard of this 👀. Is your exercise version alive anywhere to poke around?

Sure, goodnews.rokita.me - the password is “tropical”

damn, this is cool. I wish I'd seen it when it was live. Is Allan one of the people behind Svpply from back in the day?

It really was great, i’d love to capture its vibe in some way with the Folks site that i’m building. As to Svpply i’m not entirely sure, i know that back around 2012 he had a site called Designer News at LayerVault, and now he’s at Apple.

Oh! right, that's where I know him from. LayerVault was a company at the incubator I used to work for. I've met him a few times, embarrassing that I forgot 😅. Designer News was also a really cool place that I was bummed to see go. Definitely toxic in some ways but had cool ideas

That’s awesome! Small world haha! Good News was definitely a more polished iteration of Designer News

Oh I loved Good News! This is cool.
