 I've been acquainted with Rabble for years from SSB. He's always been like this. Every problem needs a centralised solution with him as a gatekeeper.

Importing a literal Microsoft / OpenAI bot was a level of cringe I hadn't seen before, though... 
 is he an orphan or short or stutter or whats the wobble that makes him so graspy? 
 I assumed (SSB days) that he was just prowling for a passive revenue stream by positioning himself at a data chokepoint. 

SSB's culture is pretty hardcore anti-capitalist, so you can imagine how well that was received. 

He writes good code on occasion. Reportinator is not one of those occasions... 
 Lol Ok. good to know. hes a middle. no problem except decentralized means theres nothing to middle. You have to produce for the consumer. 
 middle, and mid 
 Anything employing OpenAI tools is suspect from the get-go sadly. 😐
