From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You are telling people to break rule 4, which I find a reasonable one: "Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click"
It's a static HTML page with no JS. I think telling people that's unwelcome and that it's all-in on your platform or GTFO is what is poor taste. Maybe one day my blog will speak native ActivityPub if I bother setting up a non-static hosting for it.
I am not going to rewrite the whole post and have it maybe render poorly in your client due to handling inconsistencies and maybe be gone in 10 years due to platform changes just so you don't have to click. Just disable JS and image loading in your browser or read it with lynx or sth if you are concerned.
