Because VILT is dead and Livewire is now on version 1100? I've worked on both stacks in the last few years across several clients. Honestly like with anything in tech it seems to m…

In a small local scene with several whatsapp groups, I put "don't be an edgelord" as a catch-all rule rule when I started a discord in the community. Lo and behold, the EXACT perso…
