Save the world, live.

Save the World is Darkshift's mission: take the complexity out of software, cut the waste of idle machines for companies and the planet, and build apps that reach real humans, together with everyone who's fighting for it. It starts here, with our first ever Darkshift livestream, from Salt Lake City during KubeCon.

Salt Lake City at night under the Wasatch, searchlights over the skyline, a crowd with phones held up, a broadcast camera, and Darkshift's goat in the sky above, with a sign reading Save the World and a live badge

// the show is yours

Not our show. Everyone's.

Save the World is bigger than a show. It's a coalition of platform engineers, maintainers, SREs and founders who would rather build than babysit complexity, and the show is where we meet. We hold the mic. You bring the questions and the war stories.

  • Join the coalition. Read the mission, and tell us what you're fighting.
  • Send a question now. We'll answer it on air, with your name if you want it. hello@darkshift.io
  • Ask during the show. In the chat on YouTube, X or LinkedIn. We read every platform.
  • Come on the show. In Salt Lake City and fighting the same problem? Book a call, and we'll find you a seat.
  • Are you a founder? Building an app that helps people? Future episodes build and run them live, with their founders. Book a call and tell us what it is.
  • Vote on what we build next. The first five apps, and the community's ideas, are on the leaderboard.
  • Watch it later. The replay, the chapters and a full transcript go up on this page after the show.

This is how it starts.

Episode 1 kicks it off. Then the show becomes a studio: founders who share our vision for humanity, building apps for real humans, live. The mission is the point, and we're going to win it together.
