Depends on the state but you can generally Google "[state] llc lookup" or something like that and find the state specific website for it

Hey Graze, was just taking a peek again and it still looks like the docs haven't been updated

Then at that point what the fuck are they even complaining about 😭

Arbitrary ass moderation decision

"We'll ban you cause you did something that doesn't actually affect anything but we'll say it does"

?????

Also yeah this, Bluesky moderation is so unclear up until they tell you via an email moderation action

Which they still send via their blueskyweb.xyz domain that people reasonably think is fake at first glance

Screenshot of the Bluesky Moderation Service labeler with the block button very visible and usable

If you make labelers user accounts you should expect people to treat them as user accounts

Not like y'all even try to prevent it on the front end, it's right there

I'm also not taking any protocol shit as an excuse, they made the protocol this was built on top of

Site Security: We keep our platform running smoothly by stopping attacks on our systems and interference. Do not attempt to compromise, exploit, bypass, abuse, or disrupt Bluesky's systems, security features, APIs, rate limits, or infrastructure.

Also funny that this is the guideline in question

Like maybe if y'all stop vibe coding the entire platform you can take a second to make it not so easy to break your system

Also sorta implied that moderation doesn't work if the labeler is blocked so can you just block it and break a bunch of rules for 23 hours then just clean up after yourself and unblock it before getting auto-banned for blocking it?

What a well put together platform

I've questioned why labelers are and act like user accounts in the past but this definitely adds another layer of questioning

Also yet another reason to not use blocklists

how did Twitter of all places beat Bluesky to content disclosures

benefit of using a different font is it's really obvious to me lol

I *really* hope they can prove me wrong but until then don't expect me to bother moving to it

who decided basic voice controls would be a floating menu

there's a ton of other UI/UX things I could complain about but frankly don't feel like taking the time

it's a shame really, 4 years ago when I first tried Stoat I thought it was a promising start to something cool but now it's just... this

autoscrolling works in *some* menus (settings, channel/member list) but not in others (chat, profiles)

also the fucking new messages indicator does not go away when you hit the bottom of the chat, you have to go and click the X to remove it

I wish them the best since they're an open source Discord competitor

but at the same time it's been like 6 years since Stoat started and this is all there is?

I hate to say it but I really don't feel like this is going to have any actual chance at being a good Discord replacement...

messing around with Stoat for the first time since they rebranded from Revolt...

...how the fuck did they make the front end worse then it was like 4 years ago????

like they broke auto-scrolling, absolutely gutted custom theme options, and it's all literally just material 3 expressive

I hate hCaptcha

like why the fuck are you giving me nonsense AI generated captchas

Getting Global Age Assurance Right: What We Got Wrong and What's Changing Discord's CTO addresses community concerns about age assurance: no mass ID collection, new vendor transparency commitments, and a delayed global launch until 2026.

Discord is officially pushing back the global age verification rollout to the second half of 2026 along with plans for more choices for verification and vendor transparency

and like... two Discord quests that people clearly didn't notice or care about (which is not surprising)

I don't know how you keep managing to one up yourself with your CSS crimes this is fucking insane oisdfjhgosdfijg

Other social media platforms (notably Twitter) being so harsh on links and implanting that behavior into people even on platforms that don't punish you for links will always annoy me

that and people censoring certain words cause they're used to Twitter deboosting shit

Explodes you with my mind

shush

I was there too

Portals probably idk

My rant specifically mentioned Discord servers but it applies to pretty much anywhere online where a community member requires me to send an ID to some random

I was passing by a group of people on my way back to my hotel and one of them looked at me and just shouted "mares mares mares" and got disappointed when I didn't join in

Like I don't know y'all at all why are you yelling shit at me

Officially on the way home now

Goodbye Dallas
Goodbye HarmonyCon

Until next time
