sabbatical. 5.5 months in. new app Aug 16, 2026 Hey everyone, Anton here. Writing this update from Dublin. I'm finishing my 4.5 month trip to Europe and going back to the US tomorrow. For now the plan is to spend some time with friends and stay in NYC and SF. But who knows how it all will play out. This past month one surprising thing happened. I launched my own native markdown editor for Mac, iPhone and iPad (with a web version coming soon). It's called Wander . It's pretty cool and I like it so far (used it to write this exact newsletter...

It's a good conference and I'd wanted to attend it for a while. But here are a few reflections of my own: - Software has become (or maybe always was) very political. Which makes sense, because...
- sabbatical. 4 months in Jul 6, 2026 Hi everyone, Anton here. Last 3 weeks I spent in Warsaw. Recovering after travels and eating jagodzianki .

Excited about it and if you are there - say hi. I’m still having fun...

- new start Mar 8, 2026 Hi everyone! Anton here. Few updates from me: - i just quit my job this last Friday. I will probably update my list of beliefs soon after I go through a round of reflections! Also do expect few more essays from me. - I merged newsletters for my private site and - they both are written by me and honestly quite similar. What is my plan: - I will probably work on my own things(unless I find an opportunity where I’m fully aligned on many important things) for a year or so - let's see how it goes! -...
