(NOTUS didn't do that, someone else did, this is very reasonable and useful coverage.) Idk, I feel like the main vibe shift I missed was "It's good to fudge things and be scary, that's great actually, it motivates the base." I am outmoded in my commitment to trusting people with the truth.
Would our brick-by-brick archive-building work at @unbreaking.org@bsky.brid.gy get more attention if we posted about it using sensational overclaims? Totally. Is that worth compromising our relationship to facts? We don't think so. It's a hard sell on social.
