I assumed there was something wrong with my setup because this UX is insane. Good to know it’s just shit.

pixelyto Technology•The new Beeper app combines all of Automattic’s messaging systemsEnglish61·5 months agoThe fact that they’re owned by Automattic makes it a total write-off for me.
That 2013 won’t be getting security updates anymore. Apple only tends to provide security updates for 10 years. I’d be cautious with that honestly.
Unfortunately that’s not really true since the M1 series, because there were no drivers for any of the custom Apple hardware. There is a purpose built Apple Sillicon distro but it doesn’t even run on M3 or M4 macs yet.
That is tame for them. I’m convinced no one prof reads their articles anymore.
You’re trading off burning bridges against demonstrating that people can trust your judgement, which I think is essential if you expect people to migrate and prevent blowing up the community.
So you moved the community to another instance without any kind of community consultation (that I can see) and can’t even tell us why? The lack of transparency is a bit concerning.

We’re mindlessly bashing Apple here, we don’t need your sensible reasoning!
Are these genuinely being hand rolled in an enterprise environment? Unless it’s completely impossible to automate then I can’t be sympathetic to companies that are just doing it wrong.
Who is buying SSL certs for $300? Is this an enterprise thing? I’m using free certs on AWS. LetsEncrypt is also fine for self-hosting.
pixelyto Technology•Bop Spotter: "a box high up on a pole somewhere in the Mission. Inside is a crappy Android phone, set to Shazam constantly, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It's solar powered, and the mic is pointedEnglish21·10 months agoI have no issue with the stealth part given that it can only recognise audio which is already publicly available. If you don’t want people to know what you’re listening to, just don’t play it loudly in public.
This project also wouldn’t be possible if people were aware of it (it would just be gamed and certainly removed).
If you’re expecting shit data then you’d have unit tests for those cases so you’d know what to expect.
