    Thanks for litigating every layer of a bug I fixed 27 minutes after your comment, more than a year ago. > Also, the same PR was reverted a bit later, IIRC No. Your #151 was merged.…

    Your PR #151 was opened May 4, 2025 and merged 2 days later. The repeated `chat.to_llm` message bug was reported Apr 30 2025, and fixed May 6, 2025, about 27 minutes after your com…

    I checked whether you or anyone from Wistia, your company, opened PRs. I found one: #813, opened June 16, 2026. Last week.

    I have founded a UG and upgraded to a GmbH before. It had got us "more credibility" with our clients, and 12,500EUR less in each other's bank accounts. Thanks for your insults.

    That is refreshing to hear. Unfortunately I can't get out because of exit tax, an unrealized capital gains tax for the privilege of leaving the country. That is way worse than what…

    Yes indeed. We converted Freshflow into a GmbH and needless to say it was expensive.
