Dear fellow techies:

If you have a great idea for a fediverse tool, and it's amazing that nobody's done it yet... ask around. Especially ask PoC and LGBT folks.

There might be very good reasons it hasn't been done yet.

Or--it might have been done already, multiple times, and raised a storm of protests that drove each developer into shelter. You don't want to be that person.

The fedi needs tools! The fedi needs activitypub hackers! Don't waste your time writing code nobody wants, work with the community.

Hint: we don't want indexers or search engines.

a single dubloon is currently worth 350 euros just in gold value, so hmm

I am once again asking someone to just donate 50,000 euros anonymously to GoToSocial, so we can hire kimbe full time.

been thinking that it'd probably be good to not be the sole frontend/js person for GoToSocial, but also I'm not sure i would work well together with anyone in that context...

> it's an implicit opt-in

aaaaaa the mental gymnastics

this will, of course, keep happening as long as Website Boy keeps adding APIs literally designed to show off instance metadata to scrapers, and shipping config defaults equivalent to "scrape me Mommy 🥺🥺🥺"
