We imagined this page with Supernova's former art and tech director and co-founder, Andrey K., back in the site's first iterations in 2020 — but never got around to implementing it, always finding other tasks more urgent. It's important not to forget to say thank you in time, and now we won't waste another moment. Here you'll find our tributes and gratitude to our partners, friends, allies, and teachers. Consider this our gratitude journal — one that happens to be public.

And the first thank you goes to Andrey himself. Bro, none of this would have happened without you. SN will always have your design gene, and we are thanful for that.


From Anna I. to all current and former Supernova team members: Erik, Dasha, Lina, Danya. Andrey, Yuna, Ksyusha, Vasya, Ira, Masha, Anya, Stepa, Yulia. Thank you for your trust, your time, and your faith that all this was possible — that faith is what brought us closer to making it real.

To everyone who helped us with action or advice, everyone who reposted or told friends, subscribed or simply mentioned us kindly. ✨

From Supernova's editorial team to the dear, magical Linor Goralik. It's unclear what we would have become without your help — but with it, we turned out pretty damn good!

From Anna I. to elder friend and mentor Dmitry Muratov for the great school of life, thought, and joy at Novaya Gazeta.

From Supernova's team to Roman Gornitsky for the Gramatika typeface, which we use with great pleasure.

From Anna I. to Alyosha V. — for endless support during Supernova's first explosion, which, like supernova stars, remains visible thousands of years later.

From Erik Z. to the most important people in his media career — Ilya B. and Dana S. You two taught me so much and gave me so much, and it's because of you that I'm now making media myself.
