Hell yeah, the Rubygems team launched a new community gem server so you can fuck off from using Ruby Central/DHH-supported software: gem.coop

Someone defends AI guy talking about "anti-ai/anti-progress bigots" by saying they're responsible for a disabled woman being called "clanker."

Disabled/mostly homebound person weighs in and says it's a bit of a leap.

Gets blocked.

Folks, I think it might not be about defending disabled people?!

@cabel.panic.com I know you deleted it, but I do want to say -- I never thought you were defending them and I hope it did not come across that I thought you were being anything but trying to better things.

Suspending Link after he pointed out the how following Jonathan Chait after being accused of transphobia does not allow you to beat the transphobia allegations. In fact, it does the opposite.

To be clear: suspending Link was certainly a choice. And we know what KIND of choice it is.
so now link is suspended with no email

Jay's contempt for the users reminds me of when I was Creative Director at a company and the CTO ran around shouting "fuck the users. they're idiots" and that's when I started to realize we needed drastic change or we're cooked.

Anyway, they're a Google dev now.

Am I wrong? Is comparing people trying too hard/being obnoxious worse than doing everything you can to defend a dangerous transphobe who doxxes people? Allegedly including posting children's medical records?

I really can't see the leap here.
I know I'll get cast as Exhibit A for complaining about the whataboutism;

I think people being obnoxious in her mentions aren't "much worse" than the woman siding and supporting the transphobe known for doxxing people.

It speaks volumes how people like DHH and Jay loudly complain about “harassment” when they’re facing valid criticism as leaders.
October 3, 2025 at 3:16 PM
The bigots on here will flee when there is no one left to harass. They have X and TruthSocial. They don't need another site.

Jay is not the victim. Trans folks are. And she wrote memes at people asking for safety. (She also banned people who were mean about Charlie Kirk.)

So, fucking, tiring.
Yet it’s a behavior that persists across social media anyways, with negative consequences for civil discourse and society. Human nature is a contributing factor, but systems that reward outrage only make the problem worse.

"Copying the radical right is electorally self-defeating. Social democratic parties that try this route lose their own supporters without gaining new ones, and help to legitimise their opponents in the process."

Complaining about cancel culture in Riyadh is one of the best examples I've seen of how "free speech culture" rots the brain.

the last time this happened on a social network, jack dorsey wasted billions of dollars over a decade making things less successful than the website he founded because of how mad he was at the users on said website
kinda feel like when you start expressing open contempt for your user base you’re working against your stated goal of making social media better

I would love a good replacement for Vercel. (That isn't Netlify, long story.) Nor self-hosted.

I've been wanting to leave for a while.
