It’s a joke about how VALVEe runs their franchise Team Fortress 2

Well if they ever pull another “you must use snap or die”, you’ll have to imagine it. Thankfully, this exists https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh

Privacy wise? Probably nothing. The company engages in shitty behavior, though, and will try to upsell you even if you’re a paying costumer. I switched to Tuta because of that, and then Tuta started doing all the same bs…

The luddites were not opposed to technology

You speak of developers as if they have no agency.

The Hopoo folk left because they didn’t want to work on RoR anymore.

I’m surprised it has managed to stay alive for so long, in the first place.

Thank you for the write-up, it was informative!

You probably don’t have a premium account; you have the whatever they call the new premium accounts. The premium accounts are legacy and don’t get new features, so you just have those features and don’t get advertised them.

There are also the thinly veiled ‘news’ emails that show up with special CSS flair in your inbox- but it’s not news, it just them trying to upsell you stuff and get you hyped about [Latest Product].

Ah just in time for me to unsubscribe because they’ve started putting ads in my premium account!
