  • The head of Israel’s Mossad, David Barnea, had previously revealed that the first 500 pager radios had been brought into Lebanon weeks before 7 October 2023.

    This was news to me. Another point of evidence that this entire genocide was pre planned and contingent on the success of the 7.10.2023 attack which the military knew about weeks in advance.

  • and get fuck all as any for of reaction whatsoever

    I mean yeah, why would anyone see your posts. I doubt people look at the "new" live feed much on mastodon. I dont have an account, but as far as i can see there are zero sorting features like on lemmy. There is only the live feed and a couple "Explore" filters that are not configurable.

    So yeah nobody will see your posts unless you already have followers... Thats just how microblogging works by default. On lemmy people will just automatically see your posts if its posted into a community with a bunch of subscribers.

  • Five of the suspects were detained in raids on Saturday as part of an alleged plot to target “a specific premises,” the Metropolitan police said.

    This is all that the article has about their goals. So it could be anything from planning a protest event to planning to blow up the parliament...

    You never know when it comes to "terrorism" in the UK

  • How safe is your current job? If you cant be sure that you will be able to maintain that income for at least the coming 5 years then i would be careful with big money commitments.

  • There will surely be lots of fleeing Trump voters too and idk if we want those. I guess they wouldnt be allowed to vote here anyways so it wouldnt have an immediate effect on our already worsening political landscape.

  • at least a setting stone for people to be in a slightly better place than Faceook or Twitter?

    No, not really. It has already started caving to Turkish political censorship requests for example. They are implementing checkmark bullshit and from the start they required you to have an account to view all content.

    but people are learning about alternatives like us

    99% of bluesky users have never heard of the fediverse or anything like that. They just blindly follow the herd to the next platform like always. In a few years bluesky will turn to complete shit and then they will once again jump to the next garbage platform.

  • Thats exactly what it sounds like, a "bridge". An island doesnt stop being an island because it is connected to mainland with a bridge. You could also bridge twitter or facebook to mastodon, but that wouldnt make them part of the fediverse.

    A bridge is just a piece of software that receives data from one protocol and re-formats it into another protocol. You could bridge SMS to bluesky if you wanted.

  • While the Fediverse has traditionally been the network most commonly referred to and used as an example regarding the subject of decentralized social networks, alternatives to it and the accompanying ActivityPub have been developed and deployed. A major protocol in competition with the Fediverse is the AT Protocol, which powers the Bluesky social network and has formed its own separate network dubbed by developers as the Atmosphere

    So no it is not. Basically Fediverse = activitypub
    Bluesky doesnt even properly federate with instance using their own protocol so its not even in any way comparable to the fediverse.
