And now they are sad and blame bsky for being toxic, on xitter, the chill and accepting app.
the aggrieved attitude of “but i am a socialist” is really adorable.
my colleagues are kind, caring people & they were attacked (idc if I get attacked so long as it doesn’t touch my company/colleagues) we’ve always seen love for our work, this incident shocked me
we’ll keep shipping 📦💗 can’t satisfy all
Don’t take out your frustration from election results on them, LOSERS

- extremely stupid name
- technically predates the worst excesses of the AI bubble
- very eager to enable the worst excesses of the AI bubble
they also went full DARVO complaining how mean everyone had been to them over them abusing personal data and then telling us we needed to get with the program
