Does your definition of “stupid thing” applies to tickling itself?

why not? (haven’t seen any myself, tbh)

End users (so to speak) usally don’t buy full parmesan wheels, anyway ;)

It’s been there much longer, for one thing. But from what I recall, it’s been a mess specs-wise. I do especially remember Friendica/Zot’s author despairing over how little they followed their own specifications. I’m not sure they’re still relevant today

It’s still alive (on alternative repos), but it still has glaring issues : as decentralized as it wants to be, it still relies on centralized services (or “zites”, 0net’s own lingo) to manage authentication, for instance.

Basically, I wouldn’t be able to eat anything that speaks (I haven’t and don’t intend to, but that’s not what would prevent me from eating a “talking” parrot, for instance)

Totally, not to mention setting a huge precedent on the path of a better SC. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely AM excited by LK99 ;)

There are actually people (e.g. https://www.twitch.tv/andrewmccalip) who are currently trying to replicate this. But from what early (internet) experts said, even if it works, is replicable and legit, it wouldn’t allow much current through it, about a quarter of amp. Still promising, but not as groundbreaking as initially put.
