It's always interesting how "liberal" or "leftwing" spaces (whether perceived or actual) have to "stop being a bubble", but no one asks the same of Truth Social or any of the other rightwing spaces.

Honestly, the rollercoaster of emotions that goes along with development is something I'm not sure I miss. I am glad that my debug detective hunch still works. Had a tooling issue with a rather useless error output and managed to guess where in the config the problem was. 💪
