im very much “kept in check” with storage myself… which again is ultimately a good thing… no-one wants to read “sound.and.vision lost control of his legs after a pile of 1000 VHS tapes collapsed on him”

@aerozol
What are legs even for :man_shrugging:

@sound.and.vision
exactly, this chair’s got wheels

from MEB-148:

@aerozol: All done, if you go into the design system > brand > logos, you will now see a ‘monochrome’ folder for all projects[…]

@kellnerd: Hmm, am I blind or have you created monochrome versions for all projects except MusicBrainz?

aerozol: Hey, what’s that, look over there! …Oh look, the MusicBrainz monochrome logos are now there and always definitely were there

Thanks David!

People who have joined after 2021 might’ve missed this special moment on IRC.

An excerpt:

Who is the fucking mod of https://blog.metabrainz.org/? Your last update broke RYM URLs. It’s not possible to attache them to release groups

reosarevok was that you? why you do not test your code?
I would like to talk to your supervisor. Who is it?

This morning my inbox had 340 emails from 1 user - chaban - who, apparently was channelling the Blues Brothers and decided that he was on a mission from God.

@Maxr1998: strawberry ice cream is so catchy

@DontMindMe: If we get an obsession feature it will be on mine :smile: One of those songs I love to loop!

@Maxr1998: I also noticed that it’s probably a perfect song for CPR
Yeah, I’d love that obsession feature

@DontMindMe: “What are you waiting for? Save him!”
“Hold on, let me start my CPR playlist”

@Maxr1998: “He’s dying”
"I KNOW, but I just can’t decide on the right song!’

You know I appreciate all your work but don’t just pick up tickets that people make. I think it’s wrong for tickets to propose solutions to problems. We are the devs. We will find the solution after discussing with our teams

Reporting bugs is a waste of time. Got it.

For what it’s worth, that’s a lot more extreme a view than what the MB devs think at least (although I would agree with a softer version of it, “volunteer devs who are not in the dev team, ask if we want to change/fix something before you start writing code based on a ticket to make sure we don’t disagree with the proposed option and reject your code”).

Reporting bugs is certainly not a waste of time, anyway :smiley:

When concerns about a privacy invading core feature are apparently ignored for nearly a year it pretty much feels like a waste of time. Moreover it seems new features have a higher priority than fixing bugs in existing features.
