Hector Martin (Marcan42) was the lead developer of Asahi Linux, until he recently resigned. He had a Mastodon page where he would talk about AL development and hardware stuff, as well as frustrations dealing with kernel maintainers to upstream things like Rust stuff (long before the beef that went down this month).

Marcan has made it clear he needs a break, but I really wish he at least kept his Mastodon page up, perhaps in read-only. I’ll admit, I liked his posts so much I looked at it daily. I had a bookmark keyword in Firefox: I’d type tr in the URL bar to go to https://social.treehouse.systems/@marcan.

          I don’t know what a “fossbro” is. Me questioning it has nothing to do with a word being “gendered” as you say. It could be “fossthey” “fosssis” or whatever variation, I don’t care. And I don’t believe the person who used the term “fossbro” was talking about gender either. “Bro” is used as a genderless word often times similarly to “dude” or even in some cases “man.” Why you trolling? And bad at it at that.

            i never said you were being gendered or whatever, why are you accusing me of trolling? i’m referring to the word itself after you started discussion of the word itself 🤷‍♀️

    It was saved by internet archive and I guess by other archival projects, this is the last snapshot from 2025-02-06: https://web.archive.org/web/20250206022420/https://social.treehouse.systems/@marcan

    As I can see you can’t scroll back more than a month, but you can just select different snapshot dates: https://web.archive.org/web/20250000000000*/https://social.treehouse.systems/@marcan

    Clicking on “posts and replies” doesn’t work, so only his posts are visible.

    Or do we have a better way to see archives from the fediverse?

    I do not miss people that rant instead of trying to solve a given issue
