Like 4 posts down my feed I was about to post about how we should add Glitch.com embeds before I remembered "oh right, it was VC backed" and so I went and looked up what they're up to lately, and surprise, they've been incredible-journeyed: https://blog.glitch.com/post/an-exciting-leap-forward-for-glitch

Venture Capital: not even once.

tbh im not sure cohost is much better. If cohost really wanted to save social media theyd at least open source the app, and ideally federate it give control of the app to users directly

in reply to @ann-arcana's post:

that… doesn’t look like an Incredible Journey post? normally those say that the service isn’t available anymore. this just says they’re getting bought by Fastly which is actually Good based on everything I know about them

Oh they all say that. In the beginning. Just like, in the beginning, the dream Glitch claimed was to be the new Geocities, but in time, it became "your boss can save money on Github/JetBrains licenses".

How long do you really see the ex-Cisco VP who is now CEO of Glitch, seeing any value in this weird "cloud editor" thing, when their entire business is around CDN, and they posted a 200mil loss in the last year?
