No algorithms isn’t a selling point to the average user. My Mastodon feed is kinda sad and boring, if I’m not on top of it I’ll just miss interesting posts that happened in the days I didn’t open the app.

Bluesky custom feeds really help with that, while still providing the chronological no-algorithm view as your main feed. It’s just a more interesting experience for people that aren’t chronically online.

Telegram is not private messaging.

This is the exact suggestion I saw posted around here when news of the speech was shared. You love to see it

The hotdog vendor keeps going on about how he’s the good guy because he pays more to the sausage suppliers. As if that’s at all relevant to his customers.

That’s the one everyone talks about. The ANH kiss is on the cheek, which is totally normal in many cultures.

This insane isolationism from the vocal minority will kill ActivityPub. The fact that the author is now backing down and switching to an opt-in system is infuriating. Makes want to fork the project and host a copy of the bridge that’s opt-out.

There’s a teacup orbiting the sun between Mars and Jupiter. There’s no evidence to the contrary, so it can’t reasonably be called false.

Look at the Nier Automata artwork page, that’s why 😳

This reply from July shows they're still working on it, it's just challenging: https://nitter.net/photomatt/status/1676415784548184065

Is Tumblr still working on this? It's a little depressing to think Facebook of all companies might beat you to it.

Yeah 😕 They are orders of magnitude bigger and better capitalized than us. Not an excuse, just reality.

I think you’re projecting your feelings onto him, he doesn’t hate Star Wars, he was just the wrong director for the job of making a middle movie in a trilogy. He’s a great director, and Episode 8 is a good movie in a vacuum. It’s just a terrible movie if you’re trying to bridge Episode 7 and 9.

I wish Disney had just let Abrams direct the whole sequel trilogy and given Rian Johnson a standalone movie like Solo. It’s pretty clear Disney had no fucking clue what they were doing with Star Wars after they acquired it.

That’s the joke. The New York Times are a bunch of chodes trying to sell you the narrative that Dems are unpopular.

Not in Utica, no. It’s all Albany expression.

For real. Wanna try Mastodon? Make an account on mastodon.social. Wanna try Lemmy? Make an account on Lemmy.world. Once people buy into the platforms they can migrate to smaller/niche instances if they’d like. Simply things at first, active users will then slowly figure out the rest.

This is great! Account portability is one of the biggest reasons BlueSky gave for developing ATProto instead of using ActivityPub. This could be a way of getting them to switch to the standard and expand the fediverse in the process.

That's not how ActivityPub works. You can't embed trackers or scripts into posts. You can't even do the basic trackers that emails have(loading a 1px image) since your instance pulls the image from the originating server and caches it.

Nightly is aimed at developers. I’m sure there will be an article with pictures once it’s closer to release.

I know this is in Memes and obvious bait, but you're comparing a phone with a $1300 launch price to a phone that's launching at $800. If you compared it to the $1000 16 Pro your bait wouldn't be as good.

Firefox forks have dozens of users! Dozens!

I think they’re referring to trans chasers. (Cis) Men that fetishize trans women
