yes but cloudflare defending garbage people who dox trans people is also killing the web
I didn't even know about that until now. But how does that affect AI and websites?
Trying to comment in this thread and it tells me "Toastify is awesome"? wth?
edit: nevermind? whatever borked seems to have fixed itself? I don't know.
Toasting is probably a library to add toast text (that little popup message) to a mobile app
lmao, I'm laughing so hard at this! It's probably displaying the wrong text for an error.
@[email protected] do you have more information on this?
I'm not buying whatever a billionaire nepo baby CEO monopoly owner is pedaling. Let's hear what some labor leaders have to say about it for a change.
i'd like to be a labor leader, but i'm not (yet). Yet here's my opinion:
Knowledge was meant to be free since the beginning. I look at ideas as human-cultivated, carefully cultured viruses. They're packages of information that live within a host.
They're a lot less aggressive than their feral counterparts, but they're still individual beings who want to spread. Holding back knowledge is unnatural, and the internet should be free.
