      I don't know enough about @ravelry's situation or the politics of online knitting(!) to know if theirs is ultimately the right decision. But crocheted hats off to them for doing *something*, when tech companies a thousand times their size have found it expedient to do nothing.

      May I gush about Rav for a bit? Because they do many things extremely right. Biggest is how they handle advertising. Yes, they are ad-supported. But ads must be relevant to their market (yarn) and approved by a human. Nothing dynamic, no scripts, not even animations.

      Just static banner ads, that they deliver themselves (no outside ad networks involved). This makes me happy both as a knitter and as a security person. Another is that they don’t try to be all things to all people. They know they’re not Facebook. They serve a niche market,

      And cater to that niche. This gives them the freedom to do features that specifically serve that market. Like magic-linking patterns, or projects. That makes no sense outside of Rav, but is everything to its users.

      Also, everything is completely custom code. Other than AWS, there’s not much in the way of weird 3rd-party dependencies. This allows them to build exactly what they want, without being limited by what other people have made available.

      A lot of this is possible because it is an extremely small team. It wasn’t until relatively recently that there were actual employees. I am always super-impressed by what they accomplish with the resources they have.

      I know this decision will anger a bunch of people, but this is what you can do when you don’t have shareholders: you can do what you believe is right for the community you’ve built.

      You can do it when you have shareholders, too!

      Yes! But it’s way easier when you don’t even have to think about them :)

      The big tech companies are structured in a way that gives a controlling interest to the founders. Zuckerberg and Page/Brin can do whatever they want, just as if there were no other shareholders.

          Yeah, but there’s that whole making a *profit* for the shareholders thing. And when your entire business model is ad/click/number of accounts-driven, restricting activity isn’t good business sense. Which is annoying because I would happily pay for ad-free Twitter.
