Cultural appropriation is bullshit is what I think. Let people adapt and improvise. Anything else is pure conservatism.

Funny enough I work in the opposite end of the spectrum with embedded firmware. But even I can see the value of webdev.

Web dev solves a simple UI pattern kinda elegantly for rapid development. I don’t disagree with where you’re coming from but I think your last take away is a mischaracterization of why it’s used.

This is ‘the ends justifies the means’ line of thinking. Very unethical. But it can also be very cathartic.

Can you tag/save posts?

Screw that.

I believe it’s your brain but that’s not mutually exclusive from dumb.

That sounds laughable. Gross. No thanks.

I’m not leaving my communities for yet another app. When they migrate I will too.

I’d like to point out that in some cases it’s less a matter of preference and sometimes a budgetary constraint as to which services people gravitate toward, especially if your tastes are broad.

Understood, you’re not here for discourse you’re here to proselytize and grandstand. Best of luck.

Yes, keep doing you. As I said. Not sure why you’re taking this so personally.

Small fee boatloads of content or small fee per music small music selection. You do you, but the masses don’t align with your approach.
