Because that's incredibly entitled. The maintainer is already the one who has to fix it.

Do all EU countries have that? I know our (German) ID works that way, using the FOSS AusweisApp, but I hadn’t heard of it being EU-wide (it should be, though).

Huh, I thought the EU had mandated for instant SEPA transfers to be free. Maybe it’s just national. What country are you in?

For logging, statistics etc. we have the Cloudflare bot protection on the standard paid level, ignore all IPs not from Europe (rough geolocation), and still have over twice the amount of bots that we had ~2 years ago.

All the people I know who joined big servers, have nitro and do it for their emotes. My impression of really big servers is that they also skew really, really young. That said, I agree that not having to create a new account is a huge barri

I just had a look. I can absolutely understand parent. I’d want an option to include read messages in the inbox, not avoid marking as read. I want a history of stuff in my inbox, the same way discord, my RSS reader, and my email client work

Alas, while all new development is on .net core, the main money maker is a .net 4.8 website, so no way to move off windows for me, for now (no, I don't want to dual boot).

Wow, WP has 10-15 in the developed world and 15-45% globally. I never knew it was such a widespread thing. Crazy, yeah, that would certainly change it for them.
