@murat Wondered if you've followed the ATProto "standard.site" protocol at all or seen this roadblock for Bridgy Fed being able to support it for Ghost: https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/2324

D state introduces map months prior?

Google is tying reCAPTCHA to Google Play Services, screwing over de-Googled Android users
The ways in which Google can lock you into their ecosystem are often obvious, but sometimes, they're incredibly sneaky and easily missed.
CAPTCHA tests are annoying, but at the same time, they can help protect websites from bots. While these tests are alre
@moonsea dantley davis was the head of design at the time and he largely served to quash internal employee resistance pre-musk acq and he did this very public and rude thing where he characterized user safety work someone was doing (asian woman, forgetting her name, we're mutuals on twitter but idr her handle, she's rly cool) as if it were some sort of childish thing, basically implying BTS stans are all childish and not an important userbase (was rly excessively misogynist) and it was confusing on its own but made more sense in the context of like how twitter comms was negging every employee in the wake of trump being in the hospital, etc.....it was an event that made me realize later how all these struggles are connected. super vague sorry
