Tried to post three photos of my kitten. Bsky tab literally crashed during both attempts while uploading images. Are we fr rn?

I hate how many jobs nowadays basically boil down to contract labor thats more or less impossible to organize. Unless we get Jimmy Falon and Mark Rober in on it, an effective YouTube's union is a complete fantasy

Denying under 16s the chance to develop critical thinking, build community, explore how they fit in with the culture choices they make all seems sad, when we could focus on regulating platforms, prosecuting content creators, fining tech vendors. Little incentive to improve if we make it adult only

The way people talk about having a favourite soda is so weird to me. Maybe it's because I grew up having tried cola like once, but I find sweet fizzy drinks mid-to-repulsive, from monster to mug, from irn bru to dr pepper And also I can not tell apart cola, pepsi, or either of their 0cal versions

Single Page Applications are a cancer and must be eliminated, and anyone trying to develop a new one should be put down like a rabid animal. All web pages should be possible to use without Javascript. Want reactivity? Go advocate for HTMX to be standardised and implemented in browsers natively.

You can run the entire Windows 7 (32bit) Operating System in less memory than what the single web page "bsky.app" uses when running in a single Chrome browser tab. If you rendered BlueSky threads into PDF documents, those PDF documents would require less memory to display than what "bsky.app" uses.
