I’ve used Google and Zoom at work at different t companies. It’s surprising how Google lags behind Zoom in features. Google is worse at identifying background as background. And Zoom has had video backgrounds for a while now.

It took me more than a minute to figure out what you meant, but good point.

Poor thing! Thank you for caring and trying to help it.

Thanks for digging for the informative part of the link.

Are you seeing any errors in the logs?

Yes I agree—a big part of choosing an instance is who they are defederated with.

It would be kind of cool to be able to define yourself the function that decides this for your account.

I think this was expected. Big hype then a fall in usage to the “real” level of regular users. I’m expecting a slow but steady ramp up in Thread usage over months or years. With spikes for PR stunts like getting big name celebs to exclusively use the platform.

I’m a long-time Mac user but I’m very excited about this laptop. I’ve been interested in Framework for a while, but 13” screen was too small for me. This new 16” screen is perfect.

I use Bitwarden and I’m planning on switching to self hosting Vaultwarden soon.

Whether you have something to hide depends on those in power. The people in power now setting the rules won’t be the same in several years.

“Oh I’m doing ok, how are you?

Aw yep, that’s the other big problem, moderation.

That is a long list of things to make the site usable. I wonder if we as the fediverse community can leverage Peertube and eliminate the need for all these blockers.

I feel like peertube could really use some sort of Lemmy driven community engagement

Agreed. Lemmy and Kbin have been getting a lot of attention lately, and Mastodon is the elephant in the room. But I hear little about Peertube instances. I think they would be a perfect fit in the Lemmy universe.

The one problem I see is cost. Lemmy serves text. Peertube would store and serve video. Lots of it. That’s a big bill.

Good lord they are only 11 years old. Who cares what bathroom they use.

I’m glad they’re leaving the old site, but Discord serves different purposes and isn’t a replacement. I’d recommend they start a Lemmy community.

Sure they are. But the amount of info in the fediverse right now is minuscule to say R*ddit. It will take time and growth before we start seeing fediverse stuff show up regularly in search.

Maybe a bot would be useful to detect when a post is a support question, and reply with links to the support communities? Unfortunately I don’t think newcomers will read the pinned post or previous posts about this that have come up.
