Really seems like @firefoxnightly wants to kill off its loyal userbase.

@liaizon @firefoxnightly I thought "JKR" referred to a certain children's book author, and I was perplexed and (more) dismayed

@liaizon @designweek.co.uk why does the cute fox has to be a trojan fox for ai features instead of just a cute fox

Hey @[email protected] here's another weird facet for you. I think we already talked about [square brackets] messing up the conversion but thought I'd point out that it's still borked

@wake.st was gonna tag @north over on the other side incase you had any ideas to fix this issue but I see you got an "invalid handle" over there so I can't even tag you lol

@liaizon @wake.st They handle it very weirdly. You know what annoys the shit out of me? They used my domains in a test suite.

Invalid Handle is my favorite thing about beeski -- at least, it is these days -- ဪ.com fucked the UI so hard. I've got Invalid Handle here too: https://bsky.app/profile/oink.ing
