Use the term β€œtouch grass” to indicate that someone needs to seek out reality, use the term β€œtouch moss” to indicate that they need to seek out ancient forest magic beyond their mortal comprehension.

It’s always the dumbest things haha

Protip to avoid this next time

Stop using
if (!bool) {
Instead
If (bool == false) {

Looks super weird at first, but it makes reading your code so much easier. I find I consistently overlook a β€œ!”. But it’s impossible to ignore β€œ== false”

nontechnical version:

this is a big deal + huge step for transparency! most companies keep their code private/proprietary, but bc ours is public, you can literally see every implementation (how we make buttons blue, how mute lists work, etc) & what we're working on at any given moment

How do you compare the vibe on blue sky vs twitter, mastodon, substack, any other text socials?

What trouble are we getting into here?

Choosing your own algo sounds cool, in theory more flexibility =
Good

But a lot of tech ppl vastly overestimate how much effort most ppl want to put into apps

a huge % of twitter users didn’t know you could change the algo w/the sparkle button. Hence the β€œfor you” rename + pinned UI swipe change
