Discord was a huge upgrade for my guild. We moved about 30 people from a paid Mumble server to discord and it was a major upgrade in basically every sense.

First three search queries I did had zero results. Seems cool but not enough stuff indexed, I guess.

This and xupermask are just cringe consoomer mush. It's honestly shocking to me the trust that people put into celebrities and tech companies. Capitalists "disrupting" a regulated industry should be a big red flag.

Yeah I'd rather not be making regedits and of course can't even do that on a work device.

No small taskbar icons option was bothersome for me. Have to deal with it on my work PC. So much lost screen space 😭

Yeah I saw this news today and literally don't even understand how it affects me. I don't know what the difference is between Wallet and Pay.

It's just text but I'm sure I'm underestimating it, especially at social media scale.

Anyone smarter than me know how much storage (I assume that's most of the problem) overhead we're talking with a version control system?

Given, we may not have a version control system that is appropriately designed for social media yet, so pre-existing software like git might not be efficient.

I don't know much about him tbh, but whenever you're talking about Steve Ballmer you have to mention the "Developers" video: https://youtu.be/XxbJw8PrIkc?si=wo_5LMsM4k-lKhBq

Also the Ballmer Peak is funny: https://xkcd.com/323/

Maybe you could do more localized caching. Localities with different sales tax are finite and few. Cache pages based on those localities and then serve pages based on the IP of the client. It's not ideal or as optimal, but it's not that unreasonable in my mind. If it became the norm we'd build the infrastructure to sustain it.
