    I’m late to #LongCovidAwarenesDay here but a year ago I was hospitalised with the rare Stevens-Johnson Syndrome after Covid (1st and only) activated EBV then destroyed my immune system. It’s still very broken and I’m propped “up” on a lot of immune suppressants. 1/3
    Photo grid with 4 photos. 3 photos are of limbs covered in a red rash in a hospital and 1 is of me wearing a yellow respirator/face mask.

    😡 Four weeks ago I discovered I am still shared on a Google Drive folder of photos my abusive ex controls and is actively putting photos into. At the same time I learned there is **no way to remove your own access from a folder you have been given view-only access to**.

    👋 Heyooo. I left GitHub last week to focus on my Long Covid recovery. For an undetermined amount of time. I would love for this to not be necessary and I will miss my colleagues and the work we were doing 💜 😷 Also, the pandemic is ongoing, just fyi.

    I am shaking. This is so frustrating. Am I out of my mind? This is a huge bug. Anyone with your email address can view-only share something with you and lock you into content they control...forever?

    I don't know when this feature came in but I pasted from a Google Spreadsheet into a GitHub comment and it auto-converted to a Markdown table 🙏🌟

    Oh my gosh this week I re-joined @GitHub!!! I'm the PM for GitHub Sponsors now and I'm so excited to work with the people on this team AND to work on open source in this way! It's really too much to write in a tweet but if you know me then you get how this is 💖

    I have been able to reproduce this bug and have been dealing with support all month. THIS IS A REALLY BAD BUG. I can easily see how it can be exploited to harass.

    Today Support said that if you "Remove" but refresh, click back or forwards you are silently re-subscribed and they aren't sure if that's a bug. IT'S A BUG!

    Something I’ve been silent here about— Earlier this year I bought a one-way ticket out of Portland, put what I could into a pod and left a 5-year relationship that was sexually abusive, coercive and controlling.

    Also, their way of "actually" "removing" yourself takes the folder off the Shared With Me page but all the contents still show up in searches and all of your access is given back as soon as you click on it from a search result. This is not "removed".

    I am trying to be a cool cucumber and provide helpful responses and reproductions steps—I want this bad bug to get fixed for us all—but it's slow going and each time I have to go back into this really upsetting folder 😞
