I know I’m preaching to the choir here, but this may help some of your friends or family who are on the fence about making the switch toward more open software solutions.

Sorry, I’m not a regular poster so I don’t know how to make a FOSS version of a YouTube link.

You have to understand we are not normal users. Anyone even remotely interested in federated software are not normal users.

Bluesky may not have 57 third party apps and that’s why people are flocking to it. It’s easy. The signup process through the app involved no selecting of servers, no understanding of what it actually is under the hood, and users are greeted by a default algorithm that feels very much like old Twitter before Musk.

Basically, regular users do not care about the fediverse and just want a competent and polished app and site experience.

The Southern China Morning Post may or may not be a completely unbiased source in the matter.

Asking the real questions.

Ha! Same thought at pretty much the same time. Good to see you fellow elder.

The switch from NiCad to the mass adoption of LiPo was pretty revolutionary in my eyes. That might just be me showing my age though 😅

Tenet IV:

The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

Bro can post what they want and you have no say in the matter.

I watched the first season. I’ve never been a huge LOTR fan (watched and enjoyed the movie trilogy but never read the books) so I didn’t really mind that they were taking liberties with the source material. The only criteria I had was they had to tell a good story. And the just… didn’t. I was bored out of my mind the whole time. Not planning on watching the second season. I feel like I wasted enough time already with the first one.

Fuck me. I wasn’t even thinking in that context. I thought it was in reference to a new Lemmy thing like “Rule”.

Protocol 2? Im definitely missing some context.
