So @bomb.sh clack accepted a PR here—the fix was legit, the PR included respectful back-and-forth, with only one red flag in retrospect. Automated reputation farming like this has an extremely high abuse potential with very low chance of detection. Maintainers are not equipped! See for yourself.

Sarah and Yan are both absolutely incredible people to have in your team and are a massive part of Astro's success. If you're looking to make your docs better, you'd be missing the opportunity of your life by not hiring them!

There are some great people, @yanthomas.dev included, looking for their next adventure! Oh hey, and me included, too! I'm not in a rush, but keeping my eye out for the right opportunity in docs or community leadership. If you've liked using or contributing to Astro, maybe part of that came from me!

If you want to support Astro, one of the best ways is to hire the people behind it. There are amazing people on the core team looking for work right now—like me! You get a talented engineer on your team, and give them the sustainability to keep improving Astro for everyone.

We all know funding open source can be hard. Let’s talk about how Astro is doing it in 2026! (And how you can help 👀)

This morning, our Founder and CEO Dave Webb is sharing some difficult news. “On September 18th, we were given four months’ notice to leave our home and six months' notice to dismantle and move all otter centre materials, animals, and associated equipment.

A number of popular npm packages have been compromised and malicious versions published. Most of these have been removed from the registry. Astro indirectly depends on one that hasn't, so we have published 5.13.6 that pins a safe version.

It's finally here! You can now sign up for the beta of my #podcast #app, spellcast.fm! I can't wait for the first people to try it!
