Ask HN: Who are some of the must-follow Twitter users?

16 points by karangoeluw ↗ HN
No, not Justin Bieber. Let's post links to profiles of developers/hustlers on Twitter who have amazing things to say, but don't have as much exposure.

Requirements:

- must be active user

- may/may not be very popular

- must be in software/startup scene

GO.

Danielle Morill and Marc Andreesen are pretty popular, but still worth mentioning here, some of the most valuable content on my feed comes from them.

@pmarca is pretty great at Twitter, if a bit high-volume.

Also recommend:

@coda (Coda Hale)

@matthew_d_green (Matthew Green; if you follow him, you don't need to follow any other crypto people)

@pinboard/@baconmeteor (Maciej Ceglowski)

@KirinDave (Dave Fayram)

I meant to put you in there too ... sorry :/

I am super noisy on Twitter. I've never recommended that anyone follow me. :)

I've found out that following users in bulk will bring a lot of noise in my Twitter feed. I suggest you make a separate list for new accounts that seem interesting, and if someone is really worth following, go for it.
