Well.. althought I absolutely love anonymity and freedom (of speech and in
generaL), bots and especially A.I. do have me concerned.. and I'm someone who
wants I2P and Yggdrasil or some combination of that/something similar to be
internet 2.0... so problems like that would exponantially rise.
My only flimsy defence line would be captcha.. but umm yeah right 1. try
implementing that into everything and 2. won't last too long either, before
A.I. can solve captcha better than real humans bruh!
So yeah, I'm anonymous and so is dnmx.org

but I promise I'm not a A.I. bot! :( don't deny-list me! Robots have
feelings,
too! oh no, I outed myself

Actually it is not bloated, the code quality is much higher than ST
(and is actually commented!), It Just Works(TM), and it's noticeably
faster as well when ST is patched with the juvenile "scrollback
buffer support" implementation--which calls malloc() once for every
line(!) of the scrollback buffer.

foundation for something bigger.
