This makes me ๐Ÿ˜ญ

UPDATE: Thanks @nekusoul@lemmy.nekusoul.de for this update: The issue has now been commented on and was closed by the maintainer, where they explained why those blocks would be nonsense. But it appears the OP wants to still talk with maintainer privately about it.

I don't understand, what's happening? Blocked where?

[โ€“] gullible@kbin.social 24 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Nothing is happening, some kid was making requests that were entirely ignored until lemmy jumped in. I cried when they said that they preferred discord to email for official communication.

[โ€“] HarkMahlberg@kbin.social 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I thought that bit was hysterical.

"Tell me you've never been employed before without telling me."

"I prefer discord for business communication."

[โ€“] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, not being able to keep track of email was a weak fucking excuse.

[โ€“] WHYAREWEALLCAPS@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

Yeah, they should have pushed back and said "Nope, email is the only method we will conduct professional communications over."

Is the creator even a kid? I find it hard to believe a kid would give that much of a shit about email spam lists. But, then again, nearly half his repositories are forks or involve Roblox.

The creator is a chad

[โ€“] BarrierWithAshes@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Some random email filter project.

Oh well shit if I care, I loathe email anyway. Please block me ๐Ÿ˜‚
