There's no mention of facial recognition or even webcam usage in the link. Yeah, it'd be gross if they were doing this, but... they aren't? It sounds like barely more than a chat app. What makes you think the app is using fac

Should enough people use it, it'll be yeeted into the dictionary and cease being a meme word. Language is like a living thing, it grows and changes. Honestly, I'm on board with 'yeet'. It's versatile, playful, and i

Someone started Trudeaumetre[1] for Canada after the 2015 election. It's a similar format, though from a quick look, I'm not sure it's been updated since late 2019 (their Patreon link seems broken too). Regardless, I'd l
