makin, as in hs reddit's makin? wow. idk if ur looking for a response here and im not sure i want to talk to you. but in the interest of good faith i guess:

if you don't agree that there's a difference between gio and 'kici.moe's intertwining of their own brand with their homestuck mirrors (my main point being, do we even know who kici moe... is? compared to gio being an extremely established figurehead? who had 'saved homestuck' as his tag?) then that's fine. i do know gio's name was in the url mid 2023, but it's possible it wasn't by october. thanks for the archive link, the layout changes i was referring to must've been undone before the talks started. also looks like they weren't archived either way so it's kind of a 'trust me bro' moment, apologies. with all that in consideration, maybe it wasn't on hussie's mind at all, and just mine. i appreciate the corrections.
