Are tech/privacy enthusiasts known for being super into Wednesdays?
I’d expect them to be… I don’t know, complaining about Prime Day sales today. Or taking about something remotely interesting. And I bet they are, but Mastodon isn’t finding it.

Processed cheese is highly meltable. To maintain the shape in the picture, wouldn’t the middle of the cheese stack have to be cold?
It looks great, but I think it should give the names of the commenters on each comment for credit and transparency.
Yeah, if I’d been given a chance to buy Twitch in its first year for $100, I would have said no. I play a lot of video games but watching video game streaming for fun is beyond my comprehension. It was one of my first “No, it’s the children who are wrong” moments.
Probably imported, but that doesn’t make them less real. The ease of transferring accounts will be a major advantage for this platform.
They were actually told to get bent but not fired, which is even funnier. Imagine insulting and belittling a key department in your company but letting them continue to run things.
Reddit was not going to change its mind.
Honestly, I thought they might. Not to cancel the API fees entirely like some wanted, but to reach a compromise with developers that would increase Reddit’s revenue and let the apps stay in business.
But it’s become clear since then that killing the third party apps isn’t an accident or side effect, but the explicit intention of the API changes. Now I can’t see Reddit compromising as long as spez is in charge.
I still have a dim hope it could happen. The protests aren’t over and Reddit is feeling it.
Thanks for making this. I’ve been reading it a ton during my “break” from reddit.
One thing I noticed is that multi-part replies aren’t captured by the archive. Here’s an example with part 2 of a comment missing: https://ask-historians-archive.netlify.app/posts/zpjnpi.html
Anything that can be done about that, such as detecting comment chains where a person replies to their own comment?
Other than that, this is really a superior way to browse askhistorians. There are no moderator comments to skip over, and no threads with 30+ replies that are just a sea of [deleted].
