@noelle @lauren @craigmaloney@octodon.social i wrote the webpack configuration for glitch-soc so i can say it almost definitely is different from mainline (to support glitch's advanced themeing capabilities) but unfortunately that was almost six years ago so i can't remember any specifics (and it wouldn't surprise me if things had changed)

i've definitely dealt with something like this error before, which iirc i solved by shelling in and manually running webpacker to create a correct manifest in the right spot of the working directory and then redoing the normal asset compilation yada yada but again it's been so long since i've touched this that i can't give any specific steps to follow. (i think one of the rake tasks is bad but there is another more specific rake task which might fix the state so the more general one works again? idk. don't want to speculate but the answer is in that vein)

@coriander speaking of, i forgot the other option

we can forget rhoticity and just go back to writing “all” as “orl”

@coriander when i actually redid english orthography completely to be sensible i used Å completely differently, to represent “ou” e.g. mouse=mås, house=hås

and you know if i was redesigning English completely to be sensible i would stand by that, but in terms of more of a gradual transition i think that leaving OU as a digraph is probably fine

@coriander "hot" etc is said with the same vowel as "hall"

@coriander oh i have cot~caught i say fall /fɑl/ not /fɔːl/ but that /ɑ/ is in fact the sound of a short O in my english

@coriander i mean the obvious alternative is to write tol and smol but it gets fuzzier with words like fol (fall), bol (ball), etc

tål, smål, fål, bål, these are more obvious

@coriander look sometimes A makes the sound of an O and idk what to do with that other than to write it as an A topped by a little O

@coriander now if we can just “hold my beer” re: implementing socialism…
