They&#39;ve done reformattings and similar changes in the past. Browsing through the mercurial history becomes more fun, and, more importantly, patches won&#39;t apply cleanly as the code went through such modifications. So, now? I can totally see GenAI touching all the files for reformatting so that you can&#39;t just backport the reformatting commits.<br/><br/>(And this without considering the whole mess that is JS and HTML features being defined in unversioned, non-stable and backwards-incompatible &#34;living standards&#34;. (fetch() comes to mind as an example of this, the defaults were changed, and sites relying on the new defaults broke where fetch() was available with the old defaults...; I didn&#39;t check well enough to know whether postMessage()&#39;s new features are an example of this or not (it did break reCAPTCHA in SeaMonkey &lt; 2.53.23))) 2026-03-07T09:12:24Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs8da6w3actra5a289wsa66q83y3hskftqp50uuajqfddtrz2yddlgzyrl5c88lmukxeh8lughc7dg2seyw6w7crhlzmft90574cncm82j52su4288 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2k6nnr508z7y9zd9sas72622dwdg2jk3y8537kma9x48u7888tvcdyg6wu'>nevent1q…g6wu</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I will have to investigate it a bit further. I think I recall seeing something weeks/months ago about authentication failure with another client, but that could be me misremembering, I have to see if I can find that thread.<br/><br/>Meanwhile I did find one other relevant (sub)thread [1], describing the same outcome with Brutaldon.<br/><br/>[1] <a href="https://moth.social/@TheVoidTLMB/113079754367119907">https://moth.social/@TheVoidTLMB/113079754367119907</a> 2025-01-08T12:45:19Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqswkzf97xq38h2u4llwgu3kajhgvxtkfke2vapnw28m8tn9t9vqpdczyrl5c88lmukxeh8lughc7dg2seyw6w7crhlzmft90574cncm82j52vemphu In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsglxpkwq4vqf5nucqxt47mdvxzfuzksz0uv4gz3jqcelxswlq3pzc8zf6t4'>nevent1q…f6t4</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;m having trouble logging in with Brutaldon, the authorization page loads but says &#34;Client authentication failed due to unknown client, no client authentication included, or unsupported authentication method.&#34;<br/><br/>Do you happen to know what it might be, is this something I forgot to enable in the account settings?
