Johannes Brakensiek<p>The simplicity of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/UNIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UNIX</span></a> has healed me from using <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Java" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Java</span></a>.
