ok my dudes it's 2026 and i'm calling it.

a supergroup led by @pojntfx and @jorge ends up steering the #cloudnative crowd back to the fun of desktop software development.

a small army of distributed systems nerds will make #localfirst on the desktop happen, since every large backend system is always just a big poorly-specified database anyway. puregotk reduces cycle time without forcing people into a dynamic language like javascript or python.

backend devs make buttons. it feels like 1997. boot cut jeans are back in fashion. your apps talk to each other. migration is painless. self-hosting is easy but optional. software is fast and good.

google and facebook go bankrupt. wars end. the people rejoice. peace spreads across the land. a gentle rain falls.
