  • Ha, when that is even possible. I’ve seen github pages where the issue tracker is disabled and the readme says to give bug reports on discord.

    Discord was supposed to replace and combine IRC and TeamSpeak, instead people are misusing it a “replacement” for issue trackers, forums, wikis, and even distributing their files from there, and it’s infuriating. And eventually the enshittification will cause Discord to fail, and suddenly over a decade worth of discourse and projects will just be irreversibly lost as nothing said there is indexed by any search engine.








  • It’s going back to the roots, just in an extremely twisted way - I’m old enough to remember when Reddit was just a link aggregator. You put your stuff on your own site/blog/forum (remember those?), and linked to that from reddit.
    People could then upvote and comment on it on reddit, but the idea of posting something there directly was ridiculous - how could anything be found later when it would get buried under the new stuff in a few hours, and bumping isn’t a thing at all?

    Fuck reddit and social media, I want my forums back :(
    Also my back hurts, music these days is terrible, and the 90s’ were just a decade ago or so.
