February 9, 2026 at 11:06 PM
he removed it. i've been posting about this for a hot minute.
February 9, 2026 at 11:03 PM
it's discord. i think i underestimated how fast we'd slam her. good to see so many people interested, though!
February 9, 2026 at 9:13 PM
alright, that i can accept. but also, dev talks to the community and shows they respond. and it's the one with the most effort so far.
February 9, 2026 at 9:11 PM
not yet, the login n signup are dead. holy shit there's so many ppl.
February 9, 2026 at 9:09 PM
stoat is open source. just...fork it and diy? like yes, the removal is progress, but if you truly want to solve the problem, you can. nothing stops you.
February 9, 2026 at 9:05 PM

as someone in the dev side of foss, i'm also hoping. just...ouch. but now we can get to work on holding them accountable and preventing this. and always remember: FORK FORK FORK
February 9, 2026 at 8:02 PM
oh not at all. but now the easy part: holding them to standards.
February 9, 2026 at 8:01 PM
understandable. but their angle is familiar. you're up against DISCORD. they look UNTOUCHABLE and ALMIGHTY. you have no idea if anyone will care. then today happens.
February 9, 2026 at 7:59 PM
going around spreading this: one dev, maybe two.
February 9, 2026 at 7:57 PM
as i've been trying to spread: it's one dev with zero expectation and a whole lot of road up. probably genuinely thought the project would die.
February 9, 2026 at 7:57 PM
do note it's just one dev. probably didn't expect the influx and was swimming by unaware.
