@grainloom I had this idea to maybe try to learn Phoenician at the time bit it turns out it's hard to causally find sources from which to learn a 2000 year dead language lol

@grainloom I'd be amazed if it weren't. The greeks had their crazy history of the written word and are much better known. The main issue with ancient greek as I understand it is that they were allergic to writing things literally. I think even if the Phoenicians/Carthaginians wrote straightforwardly the lack of sources and knowledge would still make them lose.

@ari Remember too that the former, like Latin, has never been a truly dead language afaik (someone feel free to correct me,) there have always been people who can read ancient greek since it's been written

@Elizafox I ran into this same shit with OStatus. Eventually I had to just give up and say only interop with GS and (iirc) pleroma were supported

@lain no lies that's how I did up too. The OStatus spec is “use wireshark and grep your GS logs”

@lain it's worse than that. You think you're making progress but then you test it against real instances and it hasn't worked that way for years. I never want to debug ostatus agaon

@maloki remember when eugen was like “wtf why doesn't know about the undocumented feature where you click on the eye symbol in the top right of a.conversation twice to in-cw everything”? I feel like that's probably some low hanging fruit. I'm also no accessibility expert but it might be a good idea to try and make sure all notifications have an audio and visual component.

@sir if I could throw an idea in there: release the win32 and directx APIs under a license wine can use, ideally with the full internal docs. That's an actual gesture towards compatibility rather than the one way snag with wsl
