What a waste of domain space (yes, I know they're abundant, but still.) areweaudioyet.com says nothing about its contents. areweasyncyet.rs had the right idea with the .rs domain name, but anyways, I feel like all of these would be better organized on one wiki, with one list for each category. Easier to search, edit, and hyperlink.

Also about half of the domains are down at this point...the smart one hoated itself on github.

Who cares? There’s virtually infinite opportunities for domain names - unless you think there are better, more legitimate uses for the phrase “are we audio yet?” And it’s not like domain abandonment isn’t already handled by ICANN.

Strangely, no entry for IsItYet or HowLongUntil - which deal with such timeless popular topics as Christmas and Burning Man.

Looks like the initial concept got lost in translation. The original “arewefastyet” was created to focus relentlessly on one single goal and be accountable by making it public. If you have fifteen of those hidden under funny URLs you’re kinda missing the point.

I'm not sure if you're saying that (say) "Asynchronous I/O in Rust" should be tracked by arewefastyet.com or that "Asynchronous I/O in Rust" should not be tracked by any website at all, because neither of those make sense.

I think the argument is that if tracked it should not be done on a website using the branding of the original campaign because doing so dilutes the original brand?
