The "guest account" loophole on which nitter depended seems to have been shut off, so nitter servers will stop working over the next few weeks. This means that using Twitter without logging in will be pretty much impossible.

should make an alternative markup and transfer protocol for fediverse. copy the best bits of the web, but take away the baggage so it's easier to build new browser engines

for some folks that’s gopher or Gemini, and I can’t say I disagree with that choice. I wonder how fancy one could get with rendering, within the bounds of those protocols?

e: I had an extended rant here about how Gemini doesn’t support sessions or posting text, but it seems the Gemini site is a liar and it does sessions more or less exactly how I hoped it did. I’m gonna try some shit, if it works stay tuned for a quick and dirty Gemini interface for our instance

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
