Stoat isn't working well for me. It's taken over 24 hours to try to register a new account. First I couldn't register after doing several captchas. Then I had to wait for a verification email which took over 12 hours. I signed in to one client, but attempting to reset a password results in the same waiting game and error when selecting a new password.

I wish for the best, but they're probably putting out fires from the increased load

Wouldn't it make more sense to have them program and let a product person handle big picture ideas


The track record of MBA's destroying companies says otherwise.

What Mozilla needs is a change in leadership direction, not another MBA.


I very much doubt that the track record of companies fronted by an hands-on engineer is much better. If anything they probably fail faster on average so we never hear about them.


Most of the big tech companies were started and led by technical people.


wemod?


you could if you just whitelisted the apps you wanted your kids to use


And make sure you do it at their friend’s houses too, and on every public device, and make sure they never leave that locked down app bubble ever.


and delete the web browser?


Computers (they each had their own) in public space and no phone until 14. Worked great w/o no filtering or whitelisting of any sort.


there are similar mechanisms for controlling website usage. school computers do it all the time


ballpark percentage of parents that are technically savvy to set this up? I'd put that at 0.0284%
