Unrelated but because the blog is hosted from a repl, it's fun to read the logs when a post is on frontpage HN. You can see the request stream live here: https://blog.repl.it/__logs
EDIT: Amazing! People are chatting in the http logs: https://twitter.com/amasad/status/1356344510465286144

Replit moved to dotcom. https://blog.repl.it/dotcom
I think, as a start, any domain is fine but when you have gone big, you should acquire dotcom.

> We started hearing from students worldwide that they didn't have computers at home to continue learning, so we made our coding environment mobile optimized and it grew 900% in 2020. https://blog.repl.it/mobile
As someone who saw friends struggle to conjure up enough money to buy laptops during the pandemic (with looming socio-economic uncertainty no less), this is simply priceless; especially since it is pretty common for Bay Area companies to be insulated away from the realities of a world afar where even "cheap" Scaleway / DO compute is deemed expensive. Ironically, it is indeed this world afar that is in dire need of realising benefits (especially in terms of lower cost) that only technology can deliver. Thank you very much!

Also take a look at Repl.it's "CLUI"[0] which they released fairly recently

How do I enter the Jam once I have a team? Your blog post [1] mentions the CLUI, but I can't find a way to bring that up.
