No, I’m sorry. Zionists gotta project everywhere, now that people in the mainstream are aware of what’s truly happening.

Gotta respect boycotting Cloudflare on principle… but also, why?

Also known as catching up to Discord, until they reach feature parity and some people actually use it, and then BAM: service discontinued.

No, but as someone who just dumped Nova after realising I’ve been given some company free reign of my device (because I’ve had it so long) I feel Neo is closer to being a more comparable feature set… though still not as much as Nova

Give it a lick…

In short, it’s a backend/frontend combination that can be shaped using standards compliant web technology, i.e HTMX and JSON, to make it easier in prototyping federated platforms.

Prototyping frontend and backends in tandem is an undertaking to say the least. By creating a framework specifically designed to bridge that gap it will allow developers to more effectively develop, test and publish social media platforms.

…also, they coupled the decoupling… because of course they did. But yeah, if this makes it easier to create federated platforms, I’m all for it.

I think you missed the point.

What I’m saying is there’s a crapton of middlemen and the only reason they have a job is because some people are afraid to make an attempt, do some experimenting and generally going exploring. There’s also tech anxiety, tech fatigue, etc.

But largely, if people weren’t so scared of learning new things, or conflating certain computer processes (i.e CLI) with something that’s overly complex (spoiler alert: it isn’t), and also not having learned basic computer sense (like copying data and working on the data), then a lot of people would lose their jobs.

Also, who tf thinks Arch Linux is hard?! nano -w /root/Install.txt, a couple cups of coffee and you’re off to the races. Yes, that was another aside.

So contrary to our dispositions, most people are afraid of CLI, REPL and other acronyms that exclude the possibility of mousey clickie and box go swoosh.

This has lead to an industry of middle men, because people would rather pay someone to run a command line process than deal with the issue them selves.

CLI should be taught at schools, like the new form of handwriting… also: handwriting.

…and those damned machiatos.

Delusional boomer vomits his priveliged opinion all over the stage. News at '11.

One of my favourite legal disclaimers of all time. It reads like Bukowskian legalese.

I.e being more reliant upon Google Play services so you’ll have to accept their predatory EULA.

Now if they released a new driver update system independent of Google Play, that would be better.

…well of course it’s beneficial to their product, and a detriment against everyone else, which is why I called it a conflict of interest.

Either that, or you used the wrong word. Care to elaborate?

The logic is a little problematic, because it also means you mislead ordinary users, and honestly the infosec industry has a conflict of interest as well.

Damn. Wasn’t even aware of this… but it’s super cool :)

I’m assuming this may be a Flatpak issue. Have you turned on fractional scaling?

I’m wondering when we’re going to ask the big question, of whether or not burying people in a plot of land and putting up headstones is such a good thing.

Not only does it lay claim to massive amounts of land, but plenty of burial grounds have already been defiled - mostly because they were native American burial grounds…

But you know, Christian burials and the industry that exploits it.

Burry me at sea please. Let my body nourish the fishes.

In the 60s: “capitalism breeds innovation…”

In 2024: “Innovation is not allowed! It’s hurting my capitalism!”

Listen, I’m not saying we should hold a gun up to the patent system to get those bastards playing fair, but I’m not saying not to do it… you can do a libertarian angle, socialist angle. Whatever. Just make it normal to remind those fucks they’re not untouchable.

Not so fun when other people do it now, is it? Entire markets, run by dumb yuppies who inherited the kingdom from their dad’s. Absolutely disgraceful.

My biggest problem is how people refuse to integrate monetization into federated platforms. Some standard transactional system of sorts that could allow small platforms to create revenue streams for creators.

Not having that means Threads will be the only platform that makes such functions available, and you know they’ll have a quota based incentive system much like YouTube to get all the creators their side of things.

This is bad for musicians, film makers, animators, etc. And if you’re idea is that “you can just link to someone’s Patreon account or their PayPal wallet”, then we’re right back to the same problem again.

Believing that in 2024 you can just ignore monetization within platforms means you’re just leaving a hole in the fence for which nefarious actors can sneak in. It’s better if we standardise and normalise ethical payment models and have them readily available across platforms.

We need a federated, decentralised SWIFT for the fediverse - believe it or not.
