if your code isn't pretty enough to share screenshots of, why even write it

@f0x @maloki That's a very good point. I'm not necessarily adverse to their being some kind of "what we're all about and who we are here" feature (but really, isn't the About page for that??), but this feels particularly badly thought through. The negative impacts far outweigh anything positive imo

@maloki @Shrigglepuss if it really was so important it should've been similar/merged with the profile directory feature...

@Shrigglepuss Eugen's marketing brain i suppose, which is so clearly put above community safety

@Shrigglepuss (scrapers could always parse the html views of course, but that's an extra hurdle over just getting machine-readable data)

@Shrigglepuss fun fact the landing page shit also means the REST api has to be publicly exposed, so even with authorized_fetch enabled, scrapers etc can now just get the json representation of posts
