really fucking weird that people on this site are called out as being brave for speaking out against federal murder of an unarmed man. seem like it should be … basic human decency?

Pretty wild for @TCS to spend so much money on sponsoring the nyc marathon just to have their app be the worst negative advertising

Do I know anyone who works on YouTube premium? I would literally pay double to get rid of the bug where the queue automatically adds the “up next” video even though I’ve already queued up a video

We're hosting a tech talk @Patreon in NYC on Nov. 8th and I'll be there! If you're an engineer or designer and want to learn more about Patreon or just hang out with yours truly, give me a shout and I'll get you an invite. Would love to see you 😊

For the past five years, I've been moonlighting as a Board Member at @Patreon. Today is the biggest launch in the company's history – could not be more proud of what the team put out. The internet will be a more human place if we can move past the ad-based business model.

It’s truly best I keep Moonbirds in the bio. While proof is many projects, I always want to show support for the mb community, apologies for the drama and I look forward to seeing many of you at our meetups in Marfa this week. 🥃🦉

Can't wait for Kuss to look at Vingegaard or Roglič having a weaker moment in their Grand Tour next year and saying "Remember when you dropped me on Angliru?" and riding off into the distance. #LaVuelta23

Hiding the tab bar in this app while scrolling has made the user experience noticeably harder. And I wouldn’t be surprised if this change was for ads

Meta spending inordinate amounts of money to get you to use the app an extra minute and this app punishes its most engaged users lol
LOL Twitter rate limiting their own iOS app. Clown town!
