It's wild how some really basic usability issues with JSX have just not been addressed since I first learned of #React back in the early Stone Age. Even CSS manages to map "gray" to "grey", but class to className? Apparently impossible! Having two expressions instead of one? Even more impossible!

never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
Wait, what? There is just... no way to add alt text to images in YouTube community posts? Even LinkedIn has this feature 🤯 #a11y
It is _insane_ how blazing fast a Forgejo instance (hosted by some average guy) is compared to SlopHub. The latter is supposedly powered by the resources of a megacorp and feels like molasses in comparison. I'm at a loss for words.
