I don't think so. They should be locked in.

Thanks. Yeah, have run through so many different things. Hadn't done the Chrome flags, so why not. It's a long-term thing. I don't want to switch my DNS because I want to actually figure out what is causing it.

My hosts file isn't edited. I've cleared my cache. Security software isn't throwing up any messages.

The info I get from Googling the error doesn't really give me much. Have tried flushing the DNS cache, the domains are long propagated, no visitors of my websites are reporting errors, etc. There is probably some nuance somewhere.

Glad we're still in touch, Matt. Hope you are well.

Pictured in the first post of this thread: A pre-vaccine COVID-era photo of me in the Community Signal jackets I had made for the team at the 5 year mark.

Thank you to all of our guests, listeners, and anyone who has ever shared the show or offered a kind word of support.

I'd like to take a moment to thank Karn Broad, who has been the show's producer since the inception of the idea. Thank you, as well, to Carol Benovic-Bradley, who worked on the show editorially for 5 years.

I can think of many cases and issues where I have been disappointed by people in the industry who privately criticized someone, but publicly stood next to them, and I just never wanted the show to feel like that to anyone who really knew me.

There is always more I wish I could do.

That's the show I wanted to create. We're somewhat quiet these days, but the light is still on, especially for people in need and sensitive topics that should have a spotlight.

Personally, I just wanted to make something that made me better and that I could be proud of.

Whether that be bad industry behavior, powerful platforms and people that are a threat to the work, bigotry and racism, self-harm and suicide, CSAM and the abuse of children, the sensitive relationship community builders have with healing, hurting, and vulnerable people, and so much more.

It's a show about community, moderation, trust, and safety, with a relentless focus on the people who work in space. Not so much the companies or the vendors, but the everyday volunteers and professionals.

I'd like to think it's a show that has been fairly unafraid to talk about tough subjects.

It's probably weird how many times I've had a similar thought.

I will always maintain that those bans should have remained in place - and that he should have been banned faster.

If that had happened, we would be in a better place than we are right now.

Donald Trump earned any ban he received from a platform. Every single one was justifiable from both an ethical and policy perspective. In fact, he was given special treatment, and allowed to violate policies more than I would have been.
