Or maybe it was the first time and none of the candidates realized they'd be running against so many people? I'm not sure, I'm on the other side of forest park and I had at most 5ish options, and no ranked choice voting. : ( I think this might be one of the reasons political parties formed, way back in the distant days of yore. Much easier to say "I agree with this group of people so I'm voting for who they champion" than "I don't know how to pick between 30+ candidates (who I don't know because this is the past and we don't have the internet back then ... back now) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/4301 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────── @user-1655 maybe the user could tell their client what fields to expect and how to present them (like, a field called "memes" would be presented as a picture in this panel, a field called "rants" would be passed to a word-cloud function that extracts the most common 6+ letter words so you can tell at a glance what the rant is about, this other field could be for calendar invites (plain text of course, but interpreted by the calendar program) etc) plus, if it's encrypted with PGP keys by default, there'd be few security concerns. Unless your friend got hacked, or you got hacked, but, well... make sure everything's sandboxed and don't do any remote code execution and you're good, right? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/4302 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────── ┌─────────────────────────────┐ │ CW: unreasonably-lewd-kinky │ └─────────────────────────────┘ "did you know in ancient rome they used to brush their teeth with urine because it was cheaper than toothpaste?
