Hey guys! Straight away this post is not for everyone. ๐ŸงBut if you use Dart/Flutter and you run Linux then give me 5 minutes of your time. I'm 99% sure you won't regret it, otherwise I can reimburse you with a cookie ๐Ÿช #Flutter #Linux #DartLang medium.com/@ben.auer.dev/โ€ฆ

Today, I'm super excited to announce the 1.0.0 version of the fl_chart package. It's been 6 years since I worked on the package, and today, we have just reached a point where I can call the first stable version. Read more about it here: flutter4fun.com/fl-chart-1-0-0/ #flutter #fl_chart

When people from ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡น, ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช or ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ ask me:"Have you adjusted to living in the Netherlands?". My answer is:"I can walk by that sign without laughing!" To all non German speakers: "Huren" is the dutch word for renting. But has a very different meaning in German!

I wrote a short blog post about a small tool I built to help deal with CPU spikes and launch issues on Linux Wayland setups. If youโ€™ve seen the app, this explains why and how it works. Check it out: medium.com/@ben.auer.dev/โ€ฆ #linux #flutter #wayland

I need to get a new phone, and somehow I don't want any of the available ones. Makes me wonder what a Linux phone by TUXEDO or System76 would look like. I mean I'd buy that! #LinuxPhone #Linux
