Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

(ventpost) a personalized fuckyou to musk for making it impossible for me making twitter effectively unusable being logged in
(context: power's out in my area atm, and (because of a variety of ZA-flavoured reasons, which are also problems..) I can't actually get any fucking info because it's all just on a twitter feed)
I still refuse to log in though (and I'll double down on hating the cunt for his choices impacting my life in this manner)
It remains infuriating how many agencies/governments simply don’t have reliable online public feeds, with information.
Especially annoying when the only place with info is twitter and/or Facebook.
(That doesn’t fully solve the community contributions, which should also be useful, but at minimum any info from official accounts SHOULD be posted elsewhere)
yea, strong agree
I'm going to see if I can get something done about this my side of the world, but that involves a lot of yaks
can you hit a repeater or something
do any work anymore? afaik nitter got nuked and I haven't seen anything else since
Just saw somebody talk about this on bluesky https://status.d420.de/ so for a short time there might be an alternative.
no, nitter stays dead, i mean 70cm/2m band repeater or what have you locally
I'm in ZA. information like that here is aggressively terrible
