Whoa... you don't hear that everyday.

He's been saying it for almost a year. The legal thing is new. Not sure what that entails.

I think it means he's down to put his or his lawyer's name on everything, to take the heat if it comes.

Not sure a lawyer or he would actually take much heat. It would be good to have insightful advice, and a counselors little bite behind the sign, rather than just an idle threat "beware of dog" without a dog, but these days I'm not counting on much. I must have hope and continue to try - without expectations - which will demotivate and let me down. Including my own limited human efforts.

If he's gonna go big, it's gonna be a proper shitshow. Like when saidit's web host refused to host /s/IP2 So you're playing cat and mouse with DMCA takedown requests and shifty web hosts. Someday the decentralized reddit train* will ride into battle :/

I wish him/them luck (and hope he can shake off some of his issues). Not sure how big anyone can get in a world dominated by monopolies.

Someday the decentralized reddit trail will ride into battle

I don't understand.

Makes more sense.

Not sure I like the 1 dimensional limitations of a train confined to a track - or the possibility of a 50 car pile-up trainwreck. Why ride into battle? I'd prefer to deescalate conflict like a flock of seagulls free to flee.
