@yosh @baldur I’m not incredibly sympathetic. For one thing they’ve been rewriting the frontend in ways that make it significantly more fragile (React); but also, they’re the same company that’s pushing all the LLM/‘agentic’ nonsense that’s causing most of that excess traffic. The leopard is eating its own face.

@benjamineskola @yosh @baldur The leopard is being pushed into eating its own face by the fossil fuel industry. Microsoft, for some bizarre reason, decided to work with one of the most corrupt fossil fuel fascists on the planet.
