• "Alright guys, it’s time to leave Slack for a better alternative!"
  • Proceeds to migrate to yet another proprietary and centralized piece of software.

  • "Alright guys, it’s time to leave [insert software name here] for a better alternative!"
  • It happens again, again.

    At this point, I think the genie is out of the bottle. I feel like unless you’re on some p2p encrypted chat, anything typed into the internet is getting scraped. I’m sure everyone at this point has had at least one comment scraped and used for language model stuff.
    I honestly don’t get the outage over that. I feel like I’m in the minority on that, though. I don’t care if linguistic statics are gathered from my public comments. Knock yourself out.
