hi <3

ive been putting off a linkedin post but i accepted a full time role a while back that I believe precludes working on deer, which is why i haven't come back to it

been scared to come back to this account lol, i def feel bad about vanishing
k i’m logging off back at some point

there might be a lot of nuance to what you meant but the posts you made don’t really convey it even in context. idk
February 9, 2026 at 10:07 PM
my read of that post is to give context for the blacksky feature not to call you an extension of ice. who knows idk what is in anyone’s heart. i do really feel there was a pattern of devs making pretty nasty posts on alts worth addressing and you got lumped in with that in the wider discourse
February 9, 2026 at 10:07 PM
when i say im not happy w how any of this was handled it includes that post but that may not have been clear 🫠 i do not think you are an extension of ice. my post this morning was specifically in response to seeing peoples reaction to pronouns labeler gone and associated events
February 9, 2026 at 10:07 PM
i don’t actually know what it was referring to then? i’ve seen you beef w people about the scale of the alt appview projects?

i really do genuinely think saying blacksky is for people with annoying politics is bad. idk. yeah there can be a reason you said it but it might just be a bad thing to say
February 9, 2026 at 9:53 PM
which is i guess what im trying to get at? i think its totally fine to disagree on a technical level but when it becomes this simmering animosity towards everyone doing atproto in a way slightly different from their vision i think thats gross, counterproductive and not what i want to associate w
February 9, 2026 at 9:42 PM
there is a lot going on in this discourse, vague posting might be the devil. i’m reacting to too many different things—people insulting rudy or other devs on alt for example. in an ideal world it would just be a technical disagreement but people made (joke?) posts that framed it on other grounds.
February 9, 2026 at 9:42 PM
i think what’s “off” about it is taking a technical grievance and making it personal? maybe? i’m struggling to describe why i don’t like it beyond feeling it’s the kind of thing i would personally be v embarrassed to say. ethnocentric was def part of the problem as a choice of words, lot of baggage
February 9, 2026 at 9:42 PM
sorry i’m in the middle of cooking gimme a second
February 9, 2026 at 9:26 PM
people are discussing at least 4 different things which is a mess
February 9, 2026 at 9:00 PM
that’s all fair! the collapse on this has been pretty brutal. i wish i had said something when i saw the posts on your alt but i didn’t wanna stir then either. regrettable, and im sorry. specifically the posts calling it ethnocentric or saying it’s a pds for annoying politics feel very off to me
February 9, 2026 at 9:00 PM
i remember seeing your posts freshman year and now i have a “job”

i’m 21 i’m a child ect

might have been better for me to develop for like 2 more years

how are you besides forum beef
February 9, 2026 at 8:14 PM
wtf is that embed gtld a blight on the world
February 9, 2026 at 8:11 PM
i graduated ! and got a job lol

regret graduating so early, feel pretty isolated but it is what it is. my last semester was really really nice. work is exciting and i hope to eventually be good at it
NICE WORK

no it’s not about zoos in any way afaik
February 9, 2026 at 7:56 PM
idk where you’d start and im certainly not gonna make a summary post sorry. heikas leaflet is part of it ig
February 9, 2026 at 7:18 PM
yeah… this sucks! i’m not going to add clarity here people involved have apologized or deactivated and i don’t think i could feel proud of sending more animosity their way. “alt where i vent about other people in the community on the public microblogging site” is bad though people should not do that
February 9, 2026 at 7:09 PM
i’m very aware of this
February 9, 2026 at 7:02 PM
didn’t say otherwise, they weren’t afaik
February 9, 2026 at 6:57 PM
yeah i know your accounts lol. i dont love how you treated dame who i feel is a pretty sweet and level headed person, and i think the takeaway that “julie is unfairly maligned” is infantilizing.
February 9, 2026 at 6:56 PM
it was not aly lol. imo the post about blacksky from aly was really rancid but i think “yesterdays discourse” was a couple of people
February 9, 2026 at 6:53 PM
i have no idea what that is about and it’s not what i’m referring to. i don’t really want to explain my view of the situation in a reply to you so you don’t interpret it as me accusing you of that
February 9, 2026 at 6:52 PM

February 9, 2026 at 6:50 PM
it was linked in heikas blogpost. i’m not super inclined to highlight who’s alts the linked and unmentioned posts were
