   This is a good thing to do ("ask people for opinions before you start"), it just solves a different problem. Btw I did something similar to the certainty score thing. We had a table with technical decisions ("let's refac

   Re/ JavaScript — as of yesterday, we serve everything in an iframe with a different origin. This should make us more robust against screw-ups, and will be essential when we start allowing script blocks in pages. Re/ SEO — we might

   Replaced with a better-encoded video (VLC meh, Handbrake yay). Give it another try.

   Hey — the video should work now. Say if it still doesn't.

   Definitely! Currently we prioritize feature requests from paying users, and nobody asked for syntax highlighting yet. When somebody does, I think it'll appear pretty soon.

    The opposite! Less time coding = more time running businesses. I'm not writing any code at Brick either.

    Hard to say. I have friends too (ha) and I'm not afraid to talk to them about my ideas, but alt Twitter still was different.

    Your account might be linked to another account that did something malicious. I'm not 100% sure but I've heard enough Google horror stories that I am migrating to Apple sign-in for everything. (Yeah, assuming that Apple won't

    That RF article pushed me towards making an anonymous Twitter acc, in February, and it was the best decision of 2020 for me. Literally. Highest quality therapy I've had in my life.

    We want to have a classic sign-up option as well, sure — if only because it's one less third-party point of vulnerability for users (will be relevant when encrypted pages are there). Unfortunately it's harder than Google/GitH

    Note that if you share a page from a subtree, the reader will see its parents as well, but not siblings. I.e. a b b2 <- if you share this, 'b' is visible, but 'a' isn't

    It's designed not to leak any info like that. Anonymity is super important ( https://www.ribbonfarm.com/2020/01/23/being-your-selves-iden... is one of the inspirations for what I want Brick to enable.) If

    We are not using a block editor (I think blocks are worse for writing than the traditional model). The only open-source block editor I know of is https://codex.so/editor .

    Yeah. At least a month ago Roam was unusable for publishing. A page can take literally 5 min to load. Roam also doesn't let you have several workspaces/databases, I think. In my experience, I actually /want/ different th

    Yes, all pages are indexable once Google gets ahold of the links (so if you never share the link with anyone, it's /not/ going to end up in Google — that's important). I can find my Brick sites when I search for my name,

    You don't publish! Every page you write is already available at the URL you see in your address bar. This said, it's not indexable or findable until you yourself share it somewhere. UUIDs are long enough to be unguessable. The eye

    Gotcha. Do you have an example of a small service with excellent privacy/TOS rules? So that I know what to treat as a high-quality exemplar when designing privacy/TOS rules for Brick.
