As a linux user if 25+ years, you’re off on a bad foot with me from the beginning.

The base idea of ActivityPub is that we can’t let things get too big, because that draws attempts to takeover the userbase. There are already organized efforts beginning on Mastodon to mass defederate from any server (maston.social) that get’s to 51% of the total userbase because it would be an existential threat to all of ActivityPub if that happened. You’re basically asking starfleet to please ignore the prime directive.

If it’s all prophecy then what comes next: the eugenics wars, the second civil war, or world war 3?

I’ve gotten bad writers cramp within just a few minutes of writing since the 90s. Using the alternative pencil grip (where it rests between my index and middle fingers) helped me get through college, but I also opted for typing as much as possible. Now handwriting feels unnatural, to an extent.

How long do you think it will take before we have decentralized/federated identities to go along with it?

Same. I really like the way she presents ideas.

Your keep telling people for reasons that you wish to keep to yourself

He’s been almost as fast as social media on this one, and I trust his sources.

You’re digging yourself a hole, my friend.

lemmit.online is one I know of. Each community is a reddit board. It pulls the subs via RSS so there are no comments, just the original post.

It can dry out your esophagus enough that it basically welds together. But it’s non toxic! 👍

I think the lemmy instance that’s only for reddit reposts is a great way to go about it. You always know what you’re in for if you sub anything there, and it’s not taking up space on other servers.

Gotta finish planning the D&D session I’m running on Sunday

I haven’t knowingly used a Facebook/Meta product in many years and my life is better for it.

This is my I never let let my prod pipelines run builds automatically.

It took me a few days to realize that I could comment on threads without getting bombarded by every troll on the internet. The reddit conditioning is hard to break.

I’ve been avoiding all things Red Hat since they became RHEL for this reason. I saw something like this coming, I just didn’t expect it to take 20 years…

Now I’ve been using Debian-based distos on all my servers and desktops for so long that I’m not using Fedora, Rock, Amazon Linux, or CentOS by choice anyway.

I knew we were in for something like this when the Red Hat first became REHL. Even avoided Amazon Linux due to the lineage. But I have to admit that it took longer than I though it would.

Interesting. I got the opposite impression, that Kbin is friendlier and has a nicer UI (for the most part). I ended up moving from lemmy.world because of it.

Oh, there’s a Home Assistant crossposter on Lemmit too at !homeassistant@lemmit.online . Without Reddit or Twitter I have felt very out of the loop on Home Assistant

Doesn’t apply to me. Pretty sure Tom Baker was my first Doctor (via PBS reruns). Of the pre-2005 series Jon Pertwee was my favorite.

When nuWho started I was there from the start with Eccleston, but Tennant is my favorite.
