- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 months ago:
It was nothing personal, more of an off-handed commentary on how things usually end up going after 20 years of seeing literally every site/service I’ve used and most of the companies I once considered “the good ones” eventually get shittier in some way when the business side puts on the squeeze.
The one exception I can think of is Wikipedia.
But I don’t have any reason to think badly of these folks, their current owners seem to have their hearts in the right place and indeed have made decisions that avoid lockin and assure users, and I hope they are another Wikipedia that will endure the tides of enshittification.
But I will never again assume that such hopes will remain the reality, even in this case. This is a snapshot in time. Owners change, priorities change, pricing models change, file formats change, common sense statements of basic decency like “don’t be evil” get rescinded, scrappy fun websites created by free-thinkers become tools of fascist oppression.
That doesn’t mean they don’t deserve your business and support currently. Just make sure your off-ramp options remain acceptable if things begin to change.

- Comment on The Verge raises a partial paywall: ‘It’s a tragedy that garbage is free and news is behind paywalls’ | Semafor 5 months ago:
$1-$2 month maybe: they want $7 which is close enough to a Hulu/Netflix subscription fee that you immediately realize it’s not tenable to subscribe to all the major news sites you read, so then you start needing to build a “top 5” in your head because that’s all you can reasonably budget and that’s either too much of a PITA for whatever article you’re trying to read or you realize Verge isn’t in that top 5 and move on
- Comment on EU disease agency considers quitting Elon Musk’s X over disinfo 5 months ago:
At this point Musk might greet all your health-related updates with a 1000x boost of anti-vax nonsense from RFK Jr and an army of anti-vax bots spewing Nazi rhetoric, then you getting sued and your account banned if you suggest something “fishy” is happening
Fuck this absolute steaming pile of a website and the nutjob that smeared his shit all over it. No government agency should even this of using it for anything regarding public communications

- Comment on [deleted] 5 months ago:
Because we are largely ignorant and easily manipulated by news and social media and there are zero policies in place to address that in any way whatsoever.
People can hear endless disgusting things about someone like Gaetz and a hand-wavy “fake news!” is all it takes for them to ignore all common sense.
It’s a disease, it’s terminal, and we have no cure in sight. Don’t be like us. Information warfare is real, it’s effective, and it does require very serious conversations about what is “free speech” is vs. blatant dishonest manipulation of the public.
We’re not the first nation, nor will we be the last to have our system poisoned and irreparably destroyed endless assaultd

I ain’t linking any bank accounts to that dystopian cesspool and its tyrant CEO with no regard for rule of law who constantly steps on legal landmines and skirts all regulations and precautions.
Like…PayPal had some bad practices, but nothing like the incompetence and complete disdain for his own users/customers that Musk brings to the table
