I saw the furry art and that’s how I knew they were a pro*.

If you have any specific feedback on how to make the project better

Include the context from your comment above in the original post, so that the claim makes sense.

Its like a vegan having a problem with a billboard which says “Delicious meat” just because they don’t eat meat.

I would say it’s more like a random person seeing a billboard that says “This handbag is great for your garden project” and reacting with “wtf is this marketing?”

Because that’s not what handbags are typically for.

I’m defending the validity of my original comment.

You’ve gone this deep with me into the comments. How are you?

At the next board meeting:

Our COOL numbers have risen 57% this quarter. Since the most recent update, we’ve also seen a significant bump in CODE usage.

That’s a fair response.

If I had been more careful with my original comment, I would have said

I cannot imagine a single person who would want this (as a gift) for Thanksgiving.

Plenty of people (myself five years ago included) would want to be able to self-host software like this, especially when it looks as good as the competitors it’s based on.

I don’t think they’re going out of their way to misrepresent the software.

But if you’re excusing it for being a “turn of phrase”, then it’s a poor choice of turn of phrase.

Both Day One and Apple Journal, which this software is proudly positioned as an alternative to, marketed themselves on “personal” and “private”, not “for the family”.

Which could make sense, if it was designed around family-oriented features. But it’s not.

And it’s not like there’s a lack of options:

• Give yourself an early Christmas present with
• Host your own thanksgiving, with
• Preserve the moments that matter with
• This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for your support
• Host your Thanksgiving memories at home with
• Bon Appétit, Journiv is self-hosted for the holidays
• This Thanksgiving, own what you write

But “give your family the gift of memories of memories that last forever”?

I’m half-convinced they did this whole project just so they could call it COOL.

COOL provides a consistent, discoverable user interface (UI) designed with intuitive toolbars and a tabbed interface, which focuses on the tools most people use every day and enables current users to get their work done without clutter.

“No Way To Prevent This” Says Only Package Manager Where This Regularly Happens*

Most activism groups aren’t really screening for membership.

Usually it’s, “you want to join ? Cool, I’ll add you.”

Edit: Just read the article. They went out of their way to try to make it sound like this group was up to something other than legally show up to immigrant court and keep watch for heinous police behavior.

The memo did not provide any further details about the individual or their alleged past calls for violence and offered no specifics or evidence to explain why the FBI characterized them as “anarchist violent extremists”. The courtwatch efforts have been non-violent, and the FBI did not respond to an inquiry seeking specific examples of violence and did not answer questions about whether law enforcement had ongoing access to the private group.
