schestowitz> influence when I realised I couldn't continue donating art due to healthMar 10 06:57
schestowitz> i.e. art wouldn't be featuring anyway, which helped in needing to stepMar 10 06:57

schestowitz> No need for a response. All the bestMar 10 06:57
schestowitzJust a quick and minor point.Mar 10 06:57
schestowitzYes, IRC can be hard to follow because of several aspects and what I meant to say is that the key in a Web page (or Gemini page) should be text rather than trackers, JavaScript etc. Gemini pages can still do art and link to art, but they try to keep the users focused and protected.Mar 10 06:58
