@gray I love what the creator of Flattr has done with both IPredator and especially Njalla, however Flattr doesn't hit the nail on the head. Hopefully it gets better though...

And the username freddym was last seen "watching TV, eating grapes and drinking wine" in the november of 2007.
I now have the dev.to username of Freddy.
I've changed my handel back to @freddym to prevent confusion. Though the question is: why offer this service if it just brakes things? What's the point?
I changed my #hackernoon handel to @freddy thinking that it wouldn't work. Now my profile is a glitch between me and this other user with the handel freddy. Is this just happening for me, or are others getting this glitch?
@danarel like the article, though I feel like most students would find it hard swithching to LibreOffice. Firstly, students could struggle setting up a Nextcloud server, and $5 a month is a lot for someone probably not earning anything. Secondly, many schools use the Office365 or Google ecosystems, making it harder to submit documents using other tools. Otherwise great read!

@theprivacyfoundation I never understood why I as a user must prove I'm human. Why not turning the cart around, and let the bots prove? Like, honeypotting them with hidden form fields the human visitor won't see? So if that puzzle is solved, the visitor just "proved" to be a bot – while the visiting human wouldn't even try to solve it as it cannot be seen. Problem solved – or did I miss something? Do such solutions exist?
