How did you freeze them in the first place?
This is my backup lemmy profile. My main lemmy profile is @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone.
My main fediverse account is @ada@blahaj.zone
How did you freeze them in the first place?
I spend more time on Lemmy, but that’s mostly because I admin an instance.
I wish keeping fit and healthy was enough to give you an easy recovery. I ran a half marathon the week before my GRS, and still managed to catch pneumonia and have a bad reaction to the catheter
I don’t understand how you can watch tv with all of the other things you could be doing tbh.
I’m my mind, sitting in front of a device that only lets me watch things it decides on the timeframes it decides whilst blasting me with ads is one of the last things I want to do with my time.
Almost anything is better
I’m transgender, so, that would be a no from me
Other than blue bubbles,
I’m the one in the group DM that turns the bubbles green,
I’m far enough removed from iPhones that I don’t know what this means :)
Looks like we do :)
No, they didn’t share a post about how a police officer used their products.
They shared about because they were bragging about hiring a police officer that used to use their products to do surveillance before he started working for them.
Then when they were called out for that, they doubled down
I get that. That’s not so much what I’m disagreeing with. It’s more that I prefer my materials to be digital over paper, so I won’t miss paper when it’s gone
I have never used Tumblr, and I have no idea whether it’s chronological or whether it has an algorithm, but if it does use an algorithm, I can’t imagine that changing when they join the fediverse. But even if most of them get an algorithmic feed combining tumblr and greater fediverse content, as long as I can access their content on my own terms, it’s all good to me. Even if tumblr pulls lots of users away from smaller instances, it still works out ok because I can still control how I consume their content.
It only becomes a problem if tumblr pulls people away from the greater fediverse, and then disconnects from it, but that’s a different issue altogether, and one that worries me more than algorithms
I mean honestly, it doesn’t seem like it matters to me. An instance gets a feed from instances it has federated with. What difference does it make if one instance orders that content differently to another? It becomes another point of differentiation between instances, and non algorithmic options will always remain available at the instance level, and presumably even the user level
I don’t know how I feel about it. I like that it will encourage people to join. I don’t like that it isn’t a generic mastodon interface. However, if flickr and tumblr are coming, this Vivaldi’s way of doing is going to end up seeming pretty innocuous
Once I tried it, I couldn’t go back. It’s main issue is that it has very little 3rd party app support. MilkTea (designed for Misskey) is it really, and it’s imperfect.
CalcKey (a misskey fork) has local only posting, channels, groups, chat (and group chat) and a “Drive” feature that lets you store and share files
I haven’t used Diaspora or Friendica though, so I have no point of comparison
Mastodon’s own app, which has been seeing its own improvements.
It is? I must have missed those
Sure, but it seems like a very specific niche to try and develop and fill, only to end up losing a chunk of your userbase when Tumblr goes live…
Tumblr itself is coming to the fediverse though, so I don’t imagine anyone is keen to try and fill that niche in the interim
This was step 1 for me, and it happened at the first rumbling of Musk taking over, though I don’t use Mastodon.
This was step 2. I was using reddit and lemmy side by side, though mostly ignoring reddit, until the API change came through. I deleted my reddit account then and haven’t looked back.
I did this a few months ago.
I don’t really use either…
