i’m running a code sharing service for humans here, not a piece of computing infrastructure; if you want reliable computing infrastructure i encourage you to manage your own repo on your own platform

why? because i’m not interested in hosting broken code, and because you should be using hashes not tags for anything you need an immutable identifier for

“but using a hash doesn’t help if that hash ceases to be available” i’m not interested in hosting broken code

Show thread

saying words like “vwȣv seꝛɂƛ… is this anything…”

Show thread

being reminded that my conlang can actually be super fucking difficult to pronounce

is there anything i care about in this? probably not, they wouldn’t tell me if there was, and nobody is going to actually implement it anyway
