Bungie, another tech company, has been making this exact request of its community for years now, and their community has for years now found every excuse under the sun to ignore it…

Have you filed this bug or reported it to the requested Twitter thread? If anything else, a link to your HN comment posted to them would be enough — and then they’d realize there’s…

In the Safari menu, there may be a Feedback option that lets you report the broken site issue to them directly, without having to use Twitter. I’m not sure if it’s a developer thin…
