#buildinpublic #mbsync Ugh. And even more problems. I use the laravel validated dto package, because I like working with DTOs and getting validation “for free” is nice. However:

If a post doesn’t have a category the mb api returns an empty array. Fine. I can validate this as 'categories' => ['present', 'array'],, but interestingly the DTOs saves this internally as null. And guess what? categories in not nullable anymore when I try to save a post with empty categories to the db. Hmpf.
