Cloudflare announced that they made a Matrix server. They did not, and in this post, I deconstruct their unacceptable failures and comment on the response from involved communities.
Welcome to my blog! I write long (sometimes very long) posts about anything that interests me, mainly technology, but sometimes personal things. I hope you enjoy!
The source code for my blog is available at https://git.nexy7574.co.uk/nex/blog. Please reach out to me if you have any questions, concerns, or other comments - I love getting feedback on my posts (especially when it’s “good job nice read”)! See my main website for contact methods.
I also sometimes post shorter updates on my fediverse account: @nex@fedi.transgender.ing.
