      no, I do not want you to write for me. I do not want you to summarize. I do not want to ask ChatGPT about my own content. I want you to stop bothering me with popups or I’m going to throw you into the lake

      @skywatch.blue I’m  not sure that the ‘inauthentic fundraising label’ applied at the account level to  @blockedforthispost.bsky.social is accurate - it just posts the last post someone made before being blocked, which may contain fundraising

      My heart is so full after every ATProto meetup. Being surrounded by folks dreaming of and building a web that doesn't suck makes the whole thing feel so much more achievable.

This last week has been so good ❤️
