I wrote a blog post breaking down the moral and technical failings of Cloudflare's recent Matrix project and why I am disappointed in the Matrix.org Foundation for supporting it: nexy.blog/2026/01/28/c...

Especially when they don't even have to include a comment because WHY did you suddenly give me a 3 star rating after an exchange that went perfectly fine (I paid for the thing, you shipped it, I marked it as delivered, you got the money, everyone's happy, or at least so I would reasonably assume)

Whenever I buy something I've now got an anxiety over "will my buyer rating be high enough for this seller to give me this thing I really want to give them money for or will they see I've got a less than perfect rating and decide they don't wanna 'risk' selling it to me"

I get why it's a thing, but I can't be the only one unnerved by the increasing number of market place sites that let the seller rate the buyer, because what do you mean I might get three stars for... not talking enough, halving my buyer score ๐Ÿ˜ญ

The good news is I finally changed two octets of an IP address and my fediverse server is back online! The bad news is I waited two weeks to do it and now have to process 2 weeks of backlogged federation :(

You can't really try/except with panics though, unless there's some arcane magic that isn't a deferred recover()

How do you break the cycle of "grey walls black furniture" I recently moved into my own place (rented) and I've got no idea where to even begin with decorating and giving it colour

Sometimes I wonder if being exposed to the opinions of basically everybody 24/7 might actually just be bad for me
