☔ Something wrong with me ? feel offended ? that was probably not on purpose: Please turn Internet off then on again…

I don’t see why, it’s simple as much as I enjoy the fediverse ideology the current status of this part of internet show how little it is relevant the the vast majority of people. And yet it’s a good thing to allow both fediverse purists and ones that don’t care connecting with the « others » social networks live together.
Well that’s actually a great thing: many instances will defederate/block thread, some will federate. Freedom of choice
I agree, I do the same. But the second part of your reply « who cares those aren’t the guys », years and years watching the fediverse trying to kickstart the whole thing proves it wrong . We, fediverse users, do need those people onboard
All true. And yet sadly until mastodon or better say another fediverse instance do have algorithms and a brain dead stupid onboarding and hyper cool phone apps, that will not do for 99% of the people.
Unfortunately most users don’t care about privacy, they only move then (subscriptions) prices rises
That rewrite just for the sake of using .net is insane
I know that, in my mind the algorythm or maybe better to said the algorythm’s parameters run on client side, no need to create a Fediverse instance on client side. We can already to something a bit like that with word filters.
It would be nice to have some kind of user controled algorythm. Maybe even running on client side for privacy.
Because of the fediverse partial mesh, leading to incomplete timeline view, or inconsistency depending the instance you’re on.
People tend to flock on primary, massive instances because they are well know of course, but also because this is where you have the most complete view, and from there your posts reaches many other instances.
You can change the UI if you selfhost it is like themes.
And it seems that new themes are coming in the next releases.
Time to cut social media too
Cut TV, cut the news. You can’t do anything about world pain anyway.
So, kaboom ?
It was quantum time, either you get the notification or not or both 🤭
I’m still looking for a cheatsheet mapping journalctl commands to plain tail+grep on var log files…
I don’t know, but for the context let’s say that MMS are as safe as a mail could be: « not so much or not at all » depending on one privacy needs
MMS are sent by mail protocol between operators 🤭
+1 for Waterfox, for some reason it works 100% of the time on my usual websites, whereas Librefox has quirks or just fail (because DRM for what I understand)
Plus it seems Waterfox is a bit more professionaly build and maintained, the team do tell you how they make money from side projects like searches, that is not in the browser core, good enough for me.
