As a forum user I agree, but would like to add that many forums do have a kind of “demerit point” system for incivility. Where racking up enough points gets you temporarily muted or banned.

My instance requires that users say a little about why they want to join. Works just fine.
If someone isn’t willing to introduce themselves, why would they even want to register? If they just want to lurk, they can do so anonymously.
EDIT I just noticed we’re from the same instance lol, so you definitely know what I’m talking about 😆
I think you’d work your way in naturally, same as any community throughout all of history.
I suppose an outsider might not be able to tell a web of trust that’s only bots trusting eachother, so you still have to think critically about what you read
This folk doesn’t even grample lmao but seriously amp me on stunkyr
I’m just shocked that there are marketing departments that actually know what they’re doing. Granted I haven’t worked for any huge companies, so that’s probably why I have difficulty picturing it.
I just don’t have time to invest in learning a new operating system.
That’s fair. I got turned on to Linux in college so this is how I feel when confronted with Windows or Mac devices. I just get so frustrated every time I try, and it doesn’t seem like the end result is worth it if I can just stick with what works and not have to worry about some random update radically and inexorably altering how my computer works.
I even got an email out of nowhere right in my inbox from Dell the same day I was talking about Dell laptops with my book club. I would be so shocked if these examples are mere coincidence
Having worked on the tech side of email marketing campaigns I would actually be impressed
rerere makes resolving these almost bearable
Welp, can’t argue with that
I feel like it’s whispering bad advice at me while I’m typing. It’s good for as auto completing the most rudimentary stuff, but I have a hard time imagining it completing even one file without injecting dangerous bugs, let alone a large refactor.
This looks like the face of someone who’s used to getting yelled at
Right so because he likes to work in an office and feels more productive when surrounded by coworkers, he makes the mistake of thinking that everyone is like that. Or that the most effective workers are extroverts
God I remember how the flu used to just rip through the office come wintertime… Since switching to remote work, I think I’ve taken 1 sick day this year.
Spotify seems to have successfully commodified music, with their emphasis on “moods” that stream you anonymous music.
I wouldn’t even bother competing with their model.
We are very similar haha. BCF has been such a success (at getting $ to musicians) I wonder if Subvert will have a similar special day. “Subvert Sundays” maybe?
Although Friday is kind of the perfect day - the end of the with week for most, and not as busy as Saturday, or as sobering as Sunday.
I’ve got the days marked in my calendar! Next one is at the beginning of September. Already got my songs picked out waiting in my “cart” lol
Interesting! For a platform, Bandcamp seems to pretty benign, but I’d love to see a similar website that does an even better job!
EDIT oh reading the article it seems Bandcamp isn’t as cool as I thought (I just buy music)
So the opposition of chill. Like wtf is the big rush, are aliens invading and unless our social media is shoestring enough they’ll obliterate us?
Can’t believe this guy thinks he has anything meaningful to contribute to humanities future other than scaling up grind
Is this the book that introduced SOLID?
this but ack
