It's hard to see hurt. Bullies often weaponise that and use words to gaslight people. Those same words have a traumatizing effect when uttered in good faith. The big web inflicts this trauma at scale. We need to be resilient but we need to see hurt and pull back as well. We can put an argument aside for another day because we are still going be on the smol web tomorrow.

a459 posted a farewell but has now, as far as I can tell, deleted everything :(
For the record the farewell was not in any way negative or aimed at anyone, he just said he's going to try something else. He mentioned a recent Gemini post about living offline, so it might be that means not posting anywhere, if so I'll miss the unique color he brought to Gemini.
There was a "thank you" to @skyjake in there too, in case you didn't see it.

Well, he did mention possibly deleting the account a number of times as part of the effort to stay anonymous.

Given the unique non-PC rambling writing style there is no way for him to stay anonymous
☕️ Morgan · 2023-08-22 at 15:35:
Yes, it's quite distinctive :)

I never really thought about it but staying anonymous in a small community is pretty hard. I basically recognised their writing style.
Housekeeping — I have decided to omit the prolific @a459 from the All Posts feed. The reason is simply that the front page is meant to display content from all corners of BBS, not just from one poster. If you are a fan of their writing, you are welcome to follow the user feed here on BBS, as a Gemfeed, or an Atom feed: /u/a459 A system-wide flag is a bit of a blunt instrument but presently I don't have time to work on a more sophisticated throttling mechanism to level the playing field.
