I agree, your post is shit and nobody here wants to talk to you

ah yes, both sides, the most worthwhile take

“you claim to be a socialist and yet you have the money required to survive in a capitalist society, what a hypocrite”

you’re right

the other poster was most likely trying to stir up shit given we’re on a federated network (see also their other post), but I have been obsessed with the idea of a federated search engine this weekend

it’s definitely a worthwhile idea, but anything that does federated indexing will have to deal with moderation and abuse prevention first. those are hard problems in ordinary federated networks, but search engines specifically are targets of hostile SEO and spam in ways that few other systems are. those aren’t insurmountable problems though — just ones that need to be solved before federation is practical.

fucking right? like it’s so important to come here and scream a barely changed variant of “I disagree that the ceo is acting unhinged because reason not given” and demand a Very Serious Debate with us

like fuck me, I’ll take a post defending the ceo if it’s not all bad faith debatebro shit and low effort garbage. if it’s a bad point not made maliciously I’ll just downvote it. there’s also a fair few folks (including some of our regulars) who use kagi enough they can’t dump it because there’s no good alternative. that’s fine! this isn’t a fucking purity test, but this is a honeypot for posters we don’t want here. this instance and its communities will never choose growth over quality.

also, if any of these fuckers are going to come at a queer person for sharing a tech opinion they don’t personally like, they’d best have something much stronger than “no I think lori’s the unhinged one” cause we’ve seen this game played before

I think you might have just made it clear for me why the worst debatelords on the internet are rallying around this asshole. he’s just them but with the perceived prestige of being the CEO of a very momentarily successful internet company

good fucking riddance

[–] self@awful.systems 13 points 9 months ago

also, who in the fuck were you talking to? do you often wander into subs and demand nobody replies to your shitty posts?

[–] self@awful.systems 16 points 9 months ago (1 children)

no, unwanted harassment is me telling you to go fuck yourself

[–] self@awful.systems 10 points 9 months ago

welcome to TechTakes!

no, welcome wasn’t the right word now was it

oh cool there’s also anti-trans shit in your recent post history, cause of course there is
