I just love how literary no one involved even acknowledged the existence of Threads lmfao.

[–] Orbituary 15 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Literary or literally? (hint: neither are correct.)

[–] [email protected] 61 points 1 month ago

literally is objectively correct in this context

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago
[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The latter is correct, no?

[–] syreus 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

In the secondary, new-age definition of "literally" yes that's true.

We lost the war for "literally". It's now just an emphasis word. The definition is mind bending:

1)in a literal manner or sense; exactly.

2)informal; used for emphasis or to express strong feeling while not being literally true.

On the bright side less people use "absolutely" incorrectly than before.

Sure, but where in the image do you see someone acknowledge the existence of Threads?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I used to see people having some sort of threads number on their instagram profile, now sometimes i forget that even exists lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

It's the same number on every Instagram profile

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

i haven't heard of anyone actually using it, but I've heard of people using the others

Milf Messenger needs to join the fediverse

Full of scammer bots there.

We can fend them off if we could self-host the hell out of it...

Holy shit that was a fast article

[–] xantoxis 33 points 1 month ago

I'm mostly just impressed at whoever came up with a plausible-looking and fairly professional icon for it.

Mastodon: Independent, Libre, Federated

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

Top free

Top social

That other search term

Edit: USA Apple App Store

[–] Zomg 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Pssst, it's a meme, milf messenger isn't real bro. Ya did a whole book report on a joke homie.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was looking for Blue Sky!

And until I searched I didn’t know how many cougar apps the App Store had. So much better off now.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

It's okay, we were also hoping for its existence.

[–] anas 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Top rated apps are region dependent.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Good call, edited

USA Apple App Store

[–] nepenthes 3 points 1 month ago

Looking at that list we (humanity) are screwed.

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I can't lie, bluesky is pretty nice. Discovery feels like it's actually functional, and it's got the growth. And fuck twitter.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

~chuckles~ ~in~ ~mastodon~

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Eh, I really didn't care for Mastodon.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Do you know ays good memesters on there? I got dropped into the science/open source algo. I need to add some funny

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago

I accidentally told my wife about it

[–] 10_0 17 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Who is using threads? And who other than guys are using milf messenger? And wtf is bluesky?

[–] Donkter 52 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If there were no women on milf messenger there would be no milfs to message.

Checkmate, liberal.

[–] Whats_your_reasoning 2 points 1 month ago

Nah, in this case the M in MILF stands for “Men.” It’s obviously an app for gay males hookups. That’s the real reason why wives aren’t allowed to join.

[–] TheBat 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And who other than guys are using milf messenger?

Your mom

Man, I love frogs.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

The one with the M was the open source and federated one, correct?

[–] Etterra 3 points 1 month ago

That looks like MtG's M symbol.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm not seeing it. (android user)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It’s not a real app and not a real chart.

Look at my reply to the op.
