Plaid effectively admitted to stealing your transaction history and selling it to the highest bidder in the past. There was a settlement and they agreed to not to that in the future

Just don’t ever share your password, and certainly not your banking password, and definitely not with Plaid.

Too redundant, just use S-exprs.

(Mostly joking, but in some cases…)

I have been in meetings which people who thought the fact that a user could use a different font, even only intentionally, was “unacceptable”.

I hope those people aren’t directing the ship at YT, but could be.

Consistency. They don’t want to be at the whim of your font (which for many users will be the OS default). While it’s not frequent, sometimes Apple (iOS) or Microsoft (Edge) will have a very different interpretation of a Unicode emoji, which makes the UX of comments containing those emoji inconsistent between YT users.

The other suggestions are probably better, but you can technically self-host Wire (from Wire Gmbh) but I’ve never done it successfully.

New messages will show on all your devices, but yes, it is intentional that old messages are not available to new devices.

I primarily operate in strict standard compliance mode where I write against the shell specifications in the lastest Single Unix Specification and do not use a she-bang line since including one results in unspecified, implementation-defined behavior. Generally people seem to find this weird and annoying.

Sometimes I embrace using bash as a scripting language, and use one of the env-based she-bangs. In that case, I go whole-hog on bashisns. While I use zsh as my interactive shell, even I’m not mad enough to try to use it for scripts that need to run in more than one context (like other personal accounts/machines, even).

In ALL cases, use shellcheck and at least understand the diagnostics reported, even if you opt not to fix them. (I generally modify the script until I get a clean shellcheck run, but that can be quite involved… lists of files are pretty hard to deal with safely, actually.)
