Cool links of January
Finding and sharing links is what made the success of the internet. But recently, I've been finding it harder to find such links, and as I am not on most social media, sharing it is even harder. When you spend your time scrolling a timeline or another, you won't see most of what your friends are sharing. I'll try to make a post like this one at the end of each month with the cool links I found on the internet. They might be article, projects I want to share and more. I you have any cool links to share, feel free to send them over to me via email or Mastodon
