Sorry, I thought you might want the scenic route to Github ๐Ÿ™‚

Give it three days, it'll rise again.

I'll grant you that their tech column is dismal, but I happen to agree a fair bit with their ideology so I'm pretty much fine with their (so far) unpaywalled news site...

YY/MM/DD or casual short MM/DD (where the year is understood). It's no different, you just skip the year if it's a given ๐Ÿ˜„ But for archival purposes, file naming etc, the YYYY part is mandatory.

Cool, and she updates her github repos now and then. Good to know.

Looks like this might be the one, and it supports @Generative@aussie.zone's info that she's behind the Nukit twitter account (and online shop).

So apparently the state "only" cracked down on her previous online presence such as Youtube, and probably put her and her partner under increased surveillance/control?

True. All I'm saying is, it's not a given that a WPified Tumblr will use it as a default.

No, I'm talking about people seeing past fโ€”ng fandom to the reality that others they meet online, or whose content they consume, may live under less free circumstances than themselves.

She was outed by Vice, which seems to have been met with apathy by the online community, and it looks like the authorities cracked down on her as a consequence. The insistence of some commenters to see this through a "fan" or "taste" lens is pretty blinkered.

This is the only rational order, descending in order of magnitude.

I guess this means Tumblr is coming to the fediverse?

There has been some signs and rumours to that effect since Mastodon started taking off; I believe Automatttic specifically advertised for ActivityPub developers to work on Tumblr?

But Tumblr moving on to a Wordpress base only opens for the option of federation, if that is even accessible in the Wordpress installation that will drive Tumblr โ€” as I understand it. Or has the WP-ActivityPub plugin been rolled into core WP without me noticing?

Person. We're talking about a person in a precarious situation who was basically doxxed by Vice, and more or less shrugged off by the general online public.

It's not like you deciding you're not into vaporwave anymore.

You're already free to support developers and instance owners financially if they've set up either Patreon, OpenCollective or LiberaPay ๐Ÿคท That's money going where it's needed.

If I understand SubClub correctly, it's monetisation on a user level, which in the past has only really given us influencers. I rather enjoy not having that kind of bullshit on the fediverse.
