Joseph Brett @josephbrett.bsky.social · 27/01/2025Is there a good name for effort absolutists? I'm looking at water softening for my coffee machine, and as is typical of the coffee world you very quickly descend into "if you're not installing an industrial filtration system you should probably give up on coffee all-together". 120
