- Comment on Microsoft employee disrupts 50th anniversary and calls AI boss ‘war profiteer’ 3 days ago:
It takes massive courage to give up a cozy job at Microsoft and potentially damage your entire career to stand up for your values this way. Props to her!
- Comment on EU may “make an example of X” by issuing $1 billion fine to Musk’s social network 3 days ago:
It’s never enough. Companies that make this much money just write it off as the cost of doing business.

But muh innovation! How are genius CEOs supposed to innovate if they can’t use the public at large as guinea pigs??

The rock was clearly designed by an omnipotent God, and can’t be the product of chance
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 1 week ago:
A cynical explanation would be using the EEE theory to explain all of this.
A more nuanced one would be that corporations benefit from open source since it creates an easier pipeline to onboard engineers and they also benefit from the free labor that people put into the projects out of passion. Whether they want to kill OSS after embracing it is debatable, but they definitely want to have as much leverage on it as possible.

Yes, also remember to completely avoid Typescript and C# since they are also Microsoft. And Rust since heavy ties to Amazon. Actually, just to spare you the time, avoid programming altogether and do something like farming, since no Big Tech influence there. /s
- Comment on Musk 'Pressured' Reddit CEO to Silence DOGE Critics, Leaving Moderators Outraged: Report. 1 week ago:
I mean, does it really matter? Are you going to read 100 responses on a single post? I feel from Reddit that the larger communities get the shittier they get. More people = smaller intersection of common ground, which leads to dull content and repeating platitudes.

He did. Free speech for bigots that is.
- Comment on Bluesky made more money selling T-shirts mocking Mark Zuckerberg in one day than it has in two years of selling custom domains 2 weeks ago:
I wonder why all these high profile people are so fascinated with a dictator that oversaw the transformation of a republic into an empire. Just like fascists were/are. Must be just a coincidence! Just like that Musk salute from the heart.

- Comment on Gaming chat platform Discord in early talks with banks about public listing 4 weeks ago:
I’ve been saying this for years, but the general mood still hasn’t shifted against Discord. People were actually amazed back when it added… forums. But now if the company is going public the enshittification is imminent.

- Comment on Sergey Brin says AGI is within reach if Googlers work 60-hour weeks 5 weeks ago:
Is there any actual evidence that they are getting closer to AGI? It seems ridiculous to think that this LLM parrot bullshit is getting there.
- Comment on Scientists move to Bluesky, transitioning away from X and Meta platforms 1 month ago:
Exactly. I’ve curated my Mastodon feed way more than Bsky, and still, it’s incredibly boring. Great if you want to use socials less.
It also tends to overvalue new stuff, so whoever screams the most occupies the most space in the feed.
