Nice, looks good on my end, good job!

They’re great! Not everything needs to be installed :)

Do your webapps support PWA?

They’re ✨webapps✨

A lot of people in nations that rely on WhatsApp have data-only plans because they’re cheaper.

Where my western Russian products at? /j

And each new Mr Meeseeks is told that it can’t let it be known to the user that this is a new Mr. Meeseeks, so make shit up.

By definition, your instance can defederate from that platform.

Oy Vey, the genocide apologists are out in the comments today.

Anyone else thinks OP’s account is really sus?

Misery, USA

I’m not talking about this website specifically, a lot of sites ask for way too much info.

I just click away when I see a login wall, regardless of requirements. If I really want to read it, I use 12ft.io or similar.

Edit: Here’s a wall-less link: https://archive.ph/mFHH8

I really don’t feel like setting up an alt email address just to read a single article.

Indeed it is, but I’m concerned about the above, and thus don’t create user accounts willy nilly.

I could use a fake name and fake email, but a lot of sites require that you validate your phone number too, and it’s starting to become a lot of commodifiable data points.

Trust me, I get the feeling.

I’m only arguing from a legal standpoint, where it’s more appropriate to have CC0.

CC0 = Everyone owns it, no one can claim rights to it

Copyleft = No one owns it, the code owns itself and claims rights to itself

Since everyone paid for it, everyone owns it.

If no one paid for it, or if a single owning entity is feeling benevolent, then copyleft is appropriate.

I assume it would be difficult to get the consent of every US taxpayer to license this as copyleft, I believe CC0 (or proprietary, unfortunately) is the rightful default when in this situation. It’s debatable whether any government code should be proprietary, save for deployment secrets.

It’s generally for user data collection / sale and adding you to their marketing list.

Seems correct to me. It was paid for by the US public, using US public funds, it belongs in the public domain.

I also wish they had GPL’d it, but I’m not sure this would be appropriate here.

With Matrix’s CSAM and gore spam issues, I’ve been thinking about IRC more and more tbh.

Rules for thee but not for me

This article reads like a train wreck, and despite using the word “blackmail” like 20 times, does not go into details about what that actually means.
