Every little bit helps, sure. But maybe it’s just me, wondering why you’re getting so upset at the small contributors on some random Internet forum.

From the outside, you look like you just want to find things to be upset at.

In my experience, you find what you go looking for.

That only works if you ignore the difference in scale.

My backyard campfire also adds CO2 to the atmosphere, but that doesn’t make the corporations any less responsible. They account for the supermajority of CO2 greenhouse gas emissions.

Basically, yes.

Tesseract was downloading at runtime an obfuscated blocklist of users and instances. One that the dev didn’t tell anyone about, and didn’t give an option to disable/modify.

db0 was trying to update Tesseract and was unaware that the whole dbzer0 instance was blocked in this way. And because the Tesseract dev is a spherical bastard, rather than saying “this is blocked”, it said there was an API mismatch, which sent db0 down a troubleshooting rabbit hole that ended with him blowing the whistle on the whole thing.

And you can see how mature and wise the developer is for how he responded.
