This is hilariously retarded. https://reclaimthenet.org/mike-lindell-frank/

Mike Lindell says his upcoming social platform is called "Frank" and is a mixture of YouTube and Twitter
Little is known about the MyPillow CEO's new platform since Lindell doesn't have a background in tech.

@s8n@posting.lolicon.rocks He thinks he knows better. The mark of incompetence most alt-tech idiots seem to be infected with.

@fluffy@social.handholding.io @s8n@posting.lolicon.rocks @alex@gleasonator.com Pleroma has to handle many small servers interacting with one another. Presumably if someone hosted pleroma on a powerful enough server, it would take more hellthreads to make it slow internally.

@fluffy@social.handholding.io @s8n@posting.lolicon.rocks @tn5421@fedi.absturztau.be By the time I got into Python, 3 was already popular. So I didn't have a reason to use 2. Why, it's not contentious, is it?

Alex, this is a programming language/version war discussion, of course it's contentions. People constantly try to pass off their personal preferences as objective technical assessments pretty much constantly.

it was like that. Armies of guys with a sub seven digit net value utterly disregarding hundreds of millions of dollars in losses because version number go up and something about unicode support.

@s8n@posting.lolicon.rocks @NEETzsche@iddqd.social @alex@gleasonator.com @tn5421@fedi.absturztau.be the connected ones can look pretty cool. i think the point of fewer keys is that it's faster if you you don't leave the home row. i have my own criticisms about that but it's not a bad idea entire

The belgian keyboard layout is idiotic. It's basically the french one ignoring the requirements of the dutch and german speaking citizens. US international is a way better layout as it has all the characters more readily available.
