    AFAIK there’s nothing to stop you from learning to code

    I learned to self host. I learned to hack the extensions so they’d work when the SN company broke them.

    But sure, it’s my fault for not learning enough. How dare I expect to take someone else’s code and just run it (ie, the thing they’re doing with their editors)

        Gatekeeping valid criticism with ad hominem does nothing. I’ve already suggested multiple positive ways SN can make money, and it’s by offering value rather than selling subscriptions to editors they didn’t make and don’t maintain.

        Thankfully I don’t need to show my contributions to open-source to prove myself to you, because I’m sure at that point you’d just shift the goalposts to some other arbitrary thing.
