I have also tried both and ONLYOFFICE was better for my use case. It seems much better maintained.

Gasp! You take that back!

Someone just needs to make a discord clone on Matrix, can’t be that hard, right?

How does it compare to stoat?

Amazon is more “warehousing and fulfillment” than it is “storefront”.

This would be hard to replicate without immense capital.

I love projects like this. Do one thing, super well, without adding a kajillion dependencies. I love the vanilla HTML / CSS approach.

It’s not just democracy, but information quality in general.

This is what we get for seeking profits more than truth.

Skipping that whole loop would be far more efficient but it’s not cool to do that any more.

Please file Nicole between “Beans” and “Trying not to Poop”

Being pedantic about the differences between mammoths and mastodons is legitimately one of my favorite pastimes. Thank you!

Agreed on all counts, except that rebrands rarely succeed without boatloads of cash behind them. And even then not always.

I’ve heard (and experienced to a certain extent) that a rebrand is a sign of the beginning of the end for a product.

The thing I miss most from Reddit is all the niche technical communities. So much knowledge is contained in those.
