@hdv how many javascriptcoin should I ask for
@zachleat I would like to +1 @whitep4nth3r 's pricing advice or whatever the equialaent of that in javascriptcoin is😅 https://indieweb.social/@whitep4nth3r/109501482593712242
@zachleat @whitep4nth3r eh, equivalent
@zachleat seriously? That's gross ass game.
@chriscoyier yeah, it ain’t looking good—I think @jlengstorf said he got one too
@zachleat @chriscoyier did you ever hear back after you replied to that first one?
@jlengstorf @zachleat @chriscoyier Are these from the Vercel team?
@lachlanjc no I don’t believe so, I’m guessing it’s a less-than-reputable SEO company
@jlengstorf @chriscoyier I did, yeah. It was a curt “yeah sure, interested.” (verbatim)
@zachleat @chriscoyier …that’s what they sent back to you? I have so many questions about this business model
@jlengstorf @zachleat @chriscoyier dang that's real suspect behaviour. Sort of correlates with my theory that people on GitHub are compensated for unstaring and then staring again their repo over and over so it reappears in people's dashboard feeds. Pretty sure I've seen at least one prominent Next.js user do that on the regular
@zachleat $100 per hello world kB 🚎
@zachleat theres somebody doing some next level trolling

@andy I will forward the invoice along for you!
@zachleat OK, but what kind of link are we talking about? A "Here are the Eleventy Docs" type link, or a "Click here→← to unsubscribe from all marketing emails" type link?
@AmeliaBR haha, if I have to do a giant docs button the price goes up significantly
@zachleat Tell ‘em you’ll do it for free:
`<a href="/fediverse/zachleat@fediverse.zachleat.com/109501476143098589/https://nextjs.org”>Next.JS is a big smelly slowpoke of a framework</a>`
@Chris “big smelly slowpoke of a framework” 😅
