  • I disagree: elementary is quite limited with really basic desktop features out of the box, limited personalization, weird interface decisions with some ugly panels, and pretty behind on updates, relying heavily on their own walled gard-

    You know what? You're right.

  • I don't give a fuck. "oh but my shows, oh they will close into a walled garden". Who cares. There's lots of good, if not better content elsewhere. Hell, there's lots of better things to do than sit and just consume the garbage they spew.

  • Threads content completely dominate other activity pub clients. Other clients / communities could get dependent on it. Then Meta is basically a drug dealer with leverage.

    How? Because this doesn't make an yota of sense to me.

    Flipboard federated. Are you flooded with news from them?

  • If Apple doubts the security and privacy of our app, we’re willing to share the entire Beeper Mini codebase with a mutually agreed upon 3rd party security research firm.

    What a beautiful way to call out Apple's bs.

  • Maybe a fediverse platform JUST for accounts? The user page could have a bunch of tabs for each Fediverse platform that account is using.

    Now THAT'S a really cool idea. Make one account, let it propagates in any services of your choosing. It would make your presence on the fediverse simpler and more consistent. Add a "share" feature that formats your posts to whatever service, center every communication around your omnipresent account.

    Damn, now I want that.

  • I find the idea of the fediverse fundamentally broken, if not plain wrong. It's cool for decentralised servers from the same service like Mastodon, but keep it there. Other services have different uses and interactions, I don't want a lemmy thread suddenly showing on my mastodon timeline. I go to Mastodon for microblogging, and it would piss me off to suddenly see giant posts from some WordPress instance, or thousands of photos from Pixelfed, or a tutorial in video form from Peertube that should be a paragraph on Mastodon.

    If I want discussions, I go to lemmy. If I want long posts, I go to WordPress. For microblogging, Mastodon, and for Photos, Pixelfed. Mixing all up brings subpar experiences because the apps that deal with each service are focused, and interaction with anything outside this scope becames awful.
