- Comment on Reddit will block the Internet Archive 3 weeks ago:
Well, clearly you are, or you wouldn’t suggest that most people should stay on (what I think we both agree to be) an inferiror platform that affords them fewer freedoms.
If you’re worried that somehow that would bring unwanted attention or a bad crowd, you can always sequester yourself in a more niche server. That’s the whole point of this federated system to begin with - giving us more control of our digital presence.
- Comment on Reddit will block the Internet Archive 3 weeks ago:
Just make your own invite-only server if you’re so worried about it. Digital freedom should be for everyone, not just a few antisocial nerds.
- Comment on Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery 3 weeks ago:
A lot of people would rather sit around and tear down the progress being made around them for being imperfect, than pitch in to help change things for the better.

Speak for yourself… 🥴
- Comment on Proton releases a new app for two-factor authentication 4 weeks ago:
Why release this? Because they’re building their own ecosystem. They’re trying to build an alternative to the big players, which means they need to have an alternative to all their major products. Maps and YouTube are probably off the table for now, just because of the sheer scale needed for those, but something like this is achievable.
Is Aegis better? Maybe, but that’s not really the point, it’s part of a family of apps.
- Comment on Women’s ‘red flag’ app Tea is a privacy nightmare 5 weeks ago:
It’s an antisocial surveillance system for antisocial people, and creates a(n even more) antagonistic relationship between men and women.
Dating apps have been a disaster for dating, and this is perhaps the worst among them.
- Comment on Mastercard and Visa face backlash after hundreds of adult games removed from online stores Steam and Itch.io 5 weeks ago:
They’re still going after books too. Any and all media, speech, any kind of communication, which is free from their clawing grasp.

forscienceintelligencewith Trump - Comment on Twitch is getting vertical livestreams 2 months ago:
Oh, yeah, that makes sense. I kinda assumed they already supported it, like YouTube Shorts adopting the vertical format for shorts after Ticktock blew up.
- Comment on MEGA PENGUIN 2 months ago:
They can also go in a plane, so it’s not really a skill issue. They might not be allowed on board, but that’s an issue of discrimination, not skill.
The real skill issue is how much better they can swim compared to you, or really any human.

How else would you say it?
“Wwwwuuuuhh dot Google dot com”?
- Comment on Discord co-founder and CEO Jason Citron is stepping down 4 months ago:
It’s hard to leave because it’s easy to join, and because it has the critical mass of users. Simple as that. It takes a lot to get people to abandon their chats, their friends, their groups, and the years of built-up message history, for an app that likely has fewer users and fewer features.
- Comment on Scientists move to Bluesky, transitioning away from X and Meta platforms 6 months ago:
Would he better if it was Mastodon, but I suppose I shouldn’t let perfect be the enemy of good, and good riddance to Twitter, indeed.
- Comment on Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands. 6 months ago:
Try explaining how to do that to your non-techie relatives, especially the older ones who like reading. Yes, this makes is more difficult to switch.
