I’m trying to find anything malicious in anything he’s said
They use the "silence is violence" trope to harass and terrorize projects, hiding behind their "protected status" as a transgender. Whenever someone rejects anything that calls for "greater inclusion", they go nuclear and tell all their friends to do the same. The bullied becomes the bully. It's very childish. It's always people that never contribute any meaningful code as well.
It doesn't make financial sense to spend money on supporting an entire new platform that's used by <3% of the population.
what privacy lol, it's already gone
I have nothing to hide
Ok, pull down your pants and hand me your unlocked phone.
Did you even watch the video??
read the sidebar, nobody cares
Besides the seeming "government automatically = bad" stance, I found it quite informative and I think sheds a big light on some serious problems with it (and all) federated services (not to mention the privacy/GDPR minefield that federation is) that a lot more people need to know about.
there's absolutely no reason you can't use git
God no. Just take a hatchet to my battery and be done with it.
You'd be surprised what little impact on battery it actually has. I find this type of swift casting aside of something you've not even tried to be rather disingenuous.
Also, if your device has a cellular modem with an active connection, your provider is already tracking your location constantly and selling your personal information to the highest bidder anyways (including law enforcement and governments), so IMO it's a bit pointless to worry so much about that.
jami maybe
That could potentially open them up to legal problems. Whether it's technically legal or not, nobody wants the possibility of their livelihood being taken away by court costs just because some idiot who is wrong wants to fight them and lose anyway, because they can afford it and you can't (and often times they know it).
I once paid for access to a stock options trading group, but they only used discord. Their website had no other contact info at all. My discord account got randomly banned (it happened right after I joined an innocent server, but maybe because a bunch of people were joining at once, that triggered it? idk), so I could no longer use the service I was paying for. The service auto-renewed on my credit card and I had no way to contact the people to cancel my account (couldn't even make a new discord account). I had to dispute the charge with my CC company and it took months of back and forth with them because they simply could not understand that I could no longer access the only method of support that they offered.
Attack the argument, not the person.
