@julian you don't want to platform people who are unwelcoming to devs? I think the issue is that a lot of the devs who show up are also totally oblivious to how their stuff effects the network and people who use it and the implications of their code on peoples lives. So I don't think it's as easy as just us being more welcoming to builders either sadly

@liaizon @julian people here hate everything and shit on every attempt to do more with the platform and it's terminally discouraging. people on nostr and bluesky and farcaster are like 1% more welcoming and will actually try things and spend a dollar and it makes a huge difference.

@sun @julian @liaizon I'm totally the peanut gallery on this because I haven't built anything specific to fedi yet, but I've started instance-blocking the Usual Sources of that type of behavior, having finally gotten completely fed up with it after 7 or 8 years.
