"I don't, per se, dislike C so much as I dislike the cruft that's accumulated around it and the fact that libc looks and feels very much like it was hacked together by a bunch of random dudes over the course of a few decades rather than being designed. Which is, of course, exactly what happened."

How about a config option to make your pfp dispsay inside a hexagon instead of a circle to piss off twitter users who paid a lot of money for their hexagon?

Remember kiddies never return carts at the food market. Returning carts means less demand for employees, you are costing someone a job by returning your cart, dont be that asshole.

TIL about https://lichess.org/ , one of the world's most popular chess servers, run entirely on free software by a nonprofit, ad-free, supported by donations with a budget of ~$420K/year according to https://lichess.org/costs

They've been around since 2010.

As awesome as this is to see, imagine how many free/open nonprofit alternatives to Big Tech platforms would exist if, down to the municipal level, we decided to support them with funding & infrastructure.

btw, what were you expecting when/if Some Enormous Fucking Website exposes an ActivityPub endpoint for their past 10-20 years of post data (YouTube, maybe) and the comments are replies to the video that **don't have mentions of the video author's username**? Or simply, all the posts don't have mentions for every user involved in the thread because that's Twitter behavior that started from Twitter and only makes sense on Twitter and Twitter clones?

ok, less than 20 minutes after hearing about the Alex drama, here is my take:

Does mentionless replies break the ActivityPub spec? Let's find out...

(Pic related.)

No! No they don't! Alex is following the ActivityPub spec that we all decided to use!

"But it broke my implementation!"

No, it exposed a bug in your implementation. Were you seriously parsing messages from remote servers for addressing information?

I will now accept my egging for missing some glaring thing I missed.
