I feel like you guys are addicted to letting perfect be the enemy of good. Yes, Bluesky being corporate run will probably be an issue down the line, but if it becomes mainstream then people will be used to seeing .APP.INSTANCE and feel more comfortable with the fediverse interface, which I know at least for me was a big hurdle. Like seriously, the fact that the next big thing is federated, even if in name only, is a big step forward.

I could give a shit less about Hunter being indicted, I’m sure he broke the law and deserves jail. I’m merely pointing out that if the title of your report on that looks like it was written by fucking Ben Shapiro, then your organization clearly cares less about reporting the facts than it does pushing a narrative so I will turn to some place that doesn’t feel the need to spray paint glitter and a neon sign around the words they want you to notice.

I wasn’t critiquing grammar, I was critiquing the unprofessional practice of turning the headline into a clickbait title of a youtube video that would fit right in on a playlist titled “Triggered SJWs getting rekt vol. 630.” No legitimate news source would do that (case in point, the AP article you yourself linked). It’s obnoxious and is only good for outing the website as one with extremely poor journalistic standards and integrity.

My rule of thumb is that any youtube channel or news website that randomly capitalizes words in the headline isn’t worth paying attention to.
