But where will meta put its ads, and how can it filter what you see if you can't (as a user of an instance blocking meta/threads/...) subscribe to meta instances?
I mean it's just a hot mess, so I'm all for blocking those predatory psycopaths even if it theoretically isn't needed in some cases.
Yeah, lets wait til the bugs in 0.19.1 are ironed out too please 😌 (well, the big federation bug at least).
With over a million users, I personally don't feel an overwhelming urge to make more people come here, I prefer a more organic growth, but that's maybe only me.
Took me some years (but man has Mint become better!).
I even have a little windows box for "all that stuff not working on Linux", scanner went over, big printer too, about everything except keepass(I have the 1.0 version so it's just lazyness) and, uh, photoshop but I'm working on it.
It can, but it would just be the assembly instructions.
Usually we use high level programming languages when developing software, you'd make the cat class, the dog class, both inheriting from the animal class etc. to make our job easier.
When you compile the code, all the cute stuff gets removed, and the resulting code gets optimized as much as possible, which means you can't get back to the nice cat and dog code anymore.
A bit like a painter uses thousands of brush strokes to make a painting, it would be very hard to figure out which ones he made to make that specific painting, even if you have access to the painting.
Yeah I know! Give them all the power and they won't go corrupt. How can that end badly?!
