Think less "private" and more "protected." Like Patreon subscriber perks, paywalled content, or just someone who only wants certain people to see what they post.

Agreed; wish the default filter was "newly available" since that includes all 3 major browsers (Chrome/Edge, Safari, Firefox) but still includes new stuff that isn't "baseline" yet.

Yeah, I edited that out because it was addressing something you didn't actually say. Trying to keep the discourse above-board.

Honestly, I'm as surprised as you are.

That's fair! I'd give more details about Smolblog < https://smolblog.com/ > if the project was anywhere approaching "done".

Agreed. It doesn't seem like a long-term solution, but it is the best way we have _right now_ to visit consequences on people/orgs that enabled the tragedy. If our society sees everything in cost/benefit, then increasing the

Yeah, this seems like a clear-cut "We want justice, not money" decision. We don't know how much the families gave up (could be a little, could be significant), but whatever it was was the difference between Infowars remaining

Yes... but it's also furthering the idea of WordPress as his project, not the community-built foundation it's frequently described as.

What's the risk for businesses in a dual-license situation? The public can use the AGPL, or the business can get a private license with no viral stipulations at all. Is it just the FUD around a GPL-like license? (Serious question, as t
