First time I consider using the "flag" thing on HN. The piece is disingenuous through and through, in my opinion.
The last line sums it all:
> It is not difficult to have nice shit on the Internet, nor is it difficult to ensure such shit respects the privacy and preferences for media to use of the user. Based on how much time has been wasted on making incremental changes to minimalist protocols, complaining about them, and then implementing arbitrary sets of them, it looks very easy in comparison to make a convenient meta-media to achieve our goals.
Then I would say, stop bashing Gemini which doesn't have that much momentum anyway, and then start building your "maximalist" meta-media thing. Good luck, because in order to get any momentum you have to beat Google or Facebook at their own game, without doing the questionable things like tracking your users in order to pay hundreds of developers.
