Very likely a parody account

Headless scalps 🤔

Do you know about f-droid? It's a foss app store for android.

I personally like using the touch pads for hunt/peck style typing. This may not be what youre asking, but i find it reasonably useable for my needs

Seems reasonably friendly via w3m on my phone (termux)

My bad

I use manjaro, if you like the up-to-dateness of arch, with the polish and ease of setup of popos, it may be a great candidate for you.

Naw ive seen a ton of people talking about hot being broken. You should use active

You didnt link correctly. Your link could only be used by someone browsing from lemmy.world

Ive never had any problems with it.

Sad i had to scroll this far to see this. Great client.

Uh, wouldnt this make more sense for mastodon instances to defed? Can we even see mastodon posts on lemmy? I know they can post here, but its always like a lost in translation weird post.

Does threads even plan to federate at all? I haven't looked that deeply into it. They may have just used AP because its open source so it was easy to spin up a twitter clone. I could very well be wrong about that.

The arguments about "hanging out with my friends" is valid, but also consider all the other organizations that probably will never consider using something like Mastodon. Will the bands I like, restaraunts in my area, politicians, etc join Mastodon? Maybe, but not all of them. Federation would allow me to follow my favorite bar and see what shows they have this week without me having to use threads myself.

When it comes to the damage Threads could do to the fediverse, I think thay has way more to do with how the fediverse reacts to changes that Threads may implement on their own. Considering the discussion all over fedi about Threads and whether or not to defederate, why the hell would the Activity Pub devs cater to potential breakages that Threads introduces? If Threads breaks compatibility with the Fediverse, then they will have effectively defederated themselves.

Ultimately it comes down to content. Threads may want to take our content and throw ads next to it, and that's fine if they chose to do that. Some of us may want content that originates on Threads while using a foss client.

If we chose to completely defederate from Threads, I think that will ultimately push users from the fediverse to meta. I hate facebook, but that's where my family is. I can't even convince my wife to ditch reddit for lemmy. They will scrape our data whether or not we like it, and whether or not we defederate. I honestly just don't see the point. As long as we don't allow meta to have too much say in how Activity Pub is developed, I don't really see the harm.

I dont see it as a big deal. When i browse all im really just looking for new communities to follow, and all that mess is blurred.

I made a second account on redditnsfw for "personal reasons", so defederation wouldnt be a problem for me. But i just dont see the issue with staying federated.
