So Gab has decided that their own code that they spent $5M of investor money developing is so unsalvageably bad that they're going to use Mastodon's code instead, with the added bonus of leeching off of our apps (with Gab apps being banned from app stores)

Periodic reminder that the Myers-Briggs personality test is *not* an academically-sound or peer-reviewed psychological evaluation of any kind. It is a commercialized psychological astrology reading.
