    It’s supposed to be similar, not necessarily the same. The idea is something like this

    1. Anakin: something
    2. Padme: but [normal thing] right
    3. Anakin: …
    4. Padme: but [more basic thing] right??
    5. (implied that not even that)

    The implication here is that not only is the primary purpose not for the blind, but it won’t help them at all

    (am I overthinking this?)












  • Since forever. It’s very slow, I’m still not sure replying is actually in the spec or email clients fake it with Re: and then force you to quote the entire history of the conversation back and forth. Also very easy to break if you don’t like the Re: or something. People are constantly replying to the wrong person or persons, sometimes even to themselves. You have weirdly named fields “cc” and “bcc” that are present all the even though I use them like 4x and 1x a year, respectively. You can’t unsend or delete emails.

    And all this is before I get into doing git or calendars over email.

    Email is in fact one of the reasons I’m not sure I want the fediverse to succeed right now, because then all the faults of activitypub will be forced on us for centuries, like they are with email.
