Maybe we should start submitting DMCA takedown requests for Google Chrome because it contains that filthy PirateBay and Library Genesis. Such apps should be illegal.

Ah, makes sense. Have you tried library genesis?

As someone designing a programming language: this is a terrible, horrific feature of a language, that makes poetry and jokes possible.

Woah, the landing page looks like some unfinished Wordpress template and the forge itself looks 15years old. Nothing wrong, with the former, I just don't like the style.

Isn't github used only as the auth provider? It is not using any git features, just leaning on the security guarantees of github. I don't find this too alarming.

If you want, you can use git links when declaring dependencies in Cargo.toml. So alternative to crates.io is basically any git host already!

This is the way.

Almost completely pure way of storing ideas. With this I mean that you don't store unnecessary data such as "background should be white" or "left page margin is 1.3cm". It's just text. What's important is what it says + minimal markup.

Presentation is left to the reader's client. Do you want dark mode? Get a markdown editor/reader that supports it. Do you want serif font? Again, that's client's choice and not part of the document.

I wish browsers would support markdown out of the box, so you could open https://example.com/some-post.md
