This week's news highlights Discord's deep-dive into how they've scaled their servers to support millions of concurrent users, leveraging Elixir's power. We cover how the Oban notifier has evolved to include Phoenix.PubSub and Redis integration, allowing more flexibility for your job processing needs. LiveView Native's tutorial experience looks promising to make mobile development smoother and more intuitive. Plus, we cover the Livebook PR merge upgrading to the Bandit library and more!
