what if instead of javascript cookies we only let websites access one single
location in memory which was allocated client-side and is unique to each
website?
that way they couldn't track you between sites, since they wouldn't be able to
see any other website's "biscuits" get it because they're healthier than
cookies
All they would be able to store would be data, though I guess they could store
bytecode instructions or something if they really wanted to.

what if mastodon recorded the date and time of every time you boosted /
unboosted something so you can keep track of what your page looked like over
time [in the export data functionality]

why not have an account on each and every mastodon instance? then just RSS

maybe with a checkbox of which instances you'd like to post to on your "submit

if you'd like I can give you a lua script which will take your fediverse
archive and turn it into a pdf which you can edit or print or whatever. Might
be a fun diversion from posting. You can reply to yourself, add
clarifications, change some things, put things in a new light, add context,
etc... before you know it you'll have something printable. Could even pull out
your best stuff and make zines.
should require just a little configuration to suit your setup. That's part of
how I stay "productive" without posting all the time.

why would I want other people using my computer? They don't know how to use my
computer! They might break something or mess something up or automatically
read/edit my files that are stored in standard locations through the usage of
a script which automagically scans and ransomwares machines on the internet
who store their files in specific standardized locations! no thank you.

just collectively worked around the clock to learn and work through the
important problems facing it
or even like, cleared out the backlog of stupid pointless boring tasks that
would allow the developers to work on something better
call it the wandering parade of development
could give us some experience organizing small, short-term projects to
accomplish specific goals and tasks in an ad-hoc way that relied less upon
procedure and more on "I think so-and-so knows something about that, they were
looking into those files and posted a breakdown of how they work yesterday"
