Lydia Schoch@TheBreadmonkey web didn't even work for me. :(
@inquiline @mayintoronto The ability to raise $4M is the test of trust and whether Bluesky should play ball. This thing fizzles if they can't. They can try.
Yeah, if this works, they become another establishment, but at least they're technically non-profit.
@inquiline @mayintoronto Beige seems to be down. The way I think about it is that the funds are probably going to be coming from Bluesky. Whoever's going to donate to anything here will likely prioritize fedi-stuff first. We're not the target.

@sillygwailo Not every single tool needs to look the same T_T
#Slack is A/B testing a new layout and I hate it. It looks like Teams. I am in quite a few workspaces that I only mildly care about. I don't want all of this noise when I'm trying to do work.
@PavelASamsonov Hot take: Agile is a development way of working. What we do in UX and product needs to be compatible with the dev org's flavour of agile, but not necessarily 100% work within that framework.
