from MEB-148:
@aerozol: All done, if you go into the design system > brand > logos, you will now see a āmonochromeā folder for all projects[ā¦]
@kellnerd: Hmm, am I blind or have you created monochrome versions for all projects except MusicBrainz?
aerozol: Hey, whatās that, look over there! ā¦Oh look, the MusicBrainz monochrome logos are now there and always definitely were there
Thanks David!
@mr_monkey: āLook behind you, a three-headed monkey!ā
truly truly, he does
People who have joined after 2021 mightāve missed this special moment on IRC.
An excerpt:
Who is the fucking mod of https://blog.metabrainz.org/? Your last update broke RYM URLs. Itās 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.

You know I appreciate all your work but donāt just pick up tickets that people make. I think itās 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 itās worth, thatās a lot more extreme a view than what the MB devs think at least (although I would agree with a softer version of it, āvolunteer 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 donāt disagree with the proposed option and reject your codeā).
Reporting bugs is certainly not a waste of time, anyway
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.
@chaban You have been a great asset for us and we really appreciate your time and effort for the bugs you report.
As @reosarevok mentioned, I was expressing that emotion, so please donāt take it personally. I donāt want people to work on things before even sharing the ticket with me.
Thanks for understanding
Solutions take time sometimes and managing what excites people to contribute code is also what we need to consider. From my experience, young devs (our current app devs) like shiny new tech with new features, hence you might end up thinking we only consider features over high priority bugs but rest assured that that is not the case. We do care about fixing the bugs as soon as possible.
Please understand that we are all in the same team
You seem to be misunderstanding what Iām getting at. I wasnāt asking for code changes. I was rather suggesting to warn users about this.
A notice in its description like: āThis app is beta, can have bugs and might submit data that is not related to musicā would have done.
It seems the app has no proper privacy policy and the link in the store goes to https://metabrainz.org/privacy which makes no mention of ListenBrainz at all?
Also I find it weird the data safety section doesnāt mention that data is actually collected and will leave the userās device:
