2 months agoAh yeah I completely forgot about “magic pixels” and image based trackers. I was just considering special links. That make sense. Still I do recall hearing Proton saying they block those things, but maybe /e/os doesn’t realise they are being blocked somehow.

That’s typically what people who advocate for less/no comments really mean. The code should self explain “what” it does, but if the “why” isn’t obvious (i.e. confusing business logic) nobody argues that you shouldn’t comment it. That’s how I’ve worked in every company I’ve been at (and all developers around me) from 50 person start ups to >2k people. It’s really common mentality with Ruby developers
