Yup, @12bitfloat is 100% correct.

Yeah some users seem to be gone for good :/

Oh, welcome to the church of Apple.
We are a weird bunch but at least we aren’t Google :]

huh?

@jestdotty not really complaining though. I feel like not understanding what you are talking about is often a blessing, not a curse.
It‘s like little doors to insanity that I'd rather keep closed.

@NataliaZoric do you think I‘m fucking stupid? I looked at your comments and they are full of ad spam for some hackers.
Fuck off, scumbag!

Ook? Ook!

I have so many questions…
But I‘m resisting the urge to ask them.

Which status code is that? :]

@AlgoRythm I agree that csv is sometimes better but 80%?
No way. In my experience it‘s like 5%.

Also store the password in clear text so that you can tell the user exactly which letter is wrong. That improves UX drastically.

@antigermanist

> support already gave me insight into their morally bankrupt bullshit

Sounds like the perfect job for you then.

@antigermanist what’s the other job that you had there?

@antigermanist you always try to brag about that.

You were in apple support. That‘s on the same level as cleaning the toilets in an apple office.

Technically it counts as working for apple but in reality it really doesn’t.

@D-4got10-01 I wish there were real, legal consequences to stuff like ad spamming. Platforms like devrant are in a sense a commercial product and those ad spamming fuckers violate the terms of use and hurt the product for everyone, including the owners, financially.

Of course I know that it‘s practically impossible to enforce this but that is what I‘d wish for in a perfect world.

If every asshole spammer would be thrown into jail for a couple of months, we wouldn’t have that many of them.

@djsumdog is potatophile an euphemism for pedos or is it literally someone who loves potatoes?

It’s not iOS, it’s the devrant servers.

Do you use the official ios app?

They create a dependency to them by forcing the employees to invest days of work to learn how they work. And then the sunken cost fallacy kicks in.

I like ini but only for… well initialization data which is not hierarchical.

Encoding everything in ini is insane.

Damn, I didn’t know that about reddit. Fuck this shit then!

Thank you for your service, sir!

Let‘s consider reddit: We could have a subreddit and a post structure much like rants and comments.
Can we really assume that it will be corrupted by reddit culture? Isn‘t it depending on the particular subreddit and their users?
We can also leave it unmoderated I think.

A quick search for reddit alternatives yealded some results:
* Lemmy
* Kbin
* Mastodon

What about those?

I think those can be self hosted.

I like developing own stuff but at the same time, it‘s a lot of work and there seem to be already existing solutions that we could utilize.

Why deleting? Information should be preserved.

There were good thoughts in the deleted rant and now we need to write it again…

@GeorgeLawrence piece of shit! Fuck off from my rant! Filthy ad spammer scum!

@jestdotty aaaargh I‘m taking you seriously again!
I wanted to stop doing that.
You really know how to annoy the hell out of people!

@jestdotty you are the one who keeps mentioning it being about winning. I still don’t know what the fuck you are talking about.
Smells a hell lot like projection to me.

Oh the irony of you telling me how insufferable I am!

About the trolling part: yeah it wasn‘t about me not wanting to admit that I‘m trolling sometimes.
It was about questioning if the assumption is correct that it‘s intentional and not just being dumb instead.

@antigermanist pulling out of your ass all those accusations of what my opinion is based on nothing but your primitive brain thinking that I‘m the bad guy, just shows how morally bankrupt you are.

In simple terms, I reject almost everything that you said about me as being untrue.

@12bitfloat "nah, you are just a nazi/fascist"

@jestdotty btw, you are correct. I‘m not alive. I‘m a ghost in your head.

@jestdotty trolling is what I think people do if I assume that they are more intelligent than they really are and that they are spewing bullshit on purpose to enrage others. :]

@antigermanist Now if jestdotty doesn’t understand you, then we have a nice triangle of confusion.
