This "Jon" guy has been writing these fucking long ass screeds about all this for at least a year now.
Maybe if this motherfucker stopped writing and took some time to learn to code and then contribute to the codebase themselves, they might have more luck. As it stands, all they do is grandstand about the way things should be without even trying to understand the technical side.
Seriously, the pages and pages and pages written by non-technical people about "how things ought to be" when they aren't willing to put in the legwork to figure out how any of the technical side fucking works or how to get the technical side to fit "how things ought to be" its just fucking blowing smoke out their ass.
I get that Mastodon has problems, but complaining about the problems while doing nothing yourself to improve the issues feels just so worthless.
Contribute to the code base or shut the fuck up about your demands.
Why ? I am sure there are lots of good architects that can't lay a row of bricks for shit and won't take feedback from builders and tradespeople either.
Maybe an excellent developer will read it, agree and have a go ? Or they'll collaborate with somone.
