Almost exclusively day-ta.

I’m a day-ta scientist who grabs raw day-ta from a tay-ta warehouse (using an interface that makes it look like a day-ta base) and manipulates it inside day-ta frames in order to do day-ta analysis. I also design day-ta analytics schemas.

Sometimes, though rarely, that day-ta warehouse holds rah dah-ta, though, and I can’t tell you how it got there or why.

It’s not. It’s obliged to work in the shareholders’ interests. That can mean many things.

The board just chooses to take a narrow interpretation of those interests.

Every community needs moderators it seems and here it seems they need to be KDE contributors

Those don’t really seem like related skillsets. Community managers aren’t usually asset contributors.

Ooo, is it made by the people I work for? Because this story sounds incredibly familiar to me.

Federated means you shoulder the cost of hosting the bits users care about, while they harvest all the value in what you post!

My experience using the *bins has been that they provide a superior community UX, but the microblogging end of things feels very rough and under-invested in. It’s a value-add that doesn’t integrate well, or add real value.

There’s a ton of potential there for cross-posting, but it’s totally unrealized.

The Misskey forks are definitely the best UX as an end user I’ve tested out. And I found them easier to set up than Lemmy. But I also found that they caused frequent CPU spikes on my VPS.

I’m not sure if Mastodon does that or not, as I didn’t try running it, but I didn’t have the same experience with Akkoma or Friendica.

That said, I found Icefish’s implementation of the Mastodon API a godsend for mobile use.

The way she treats people isn’t “controversial”, either. Being a shit stain of a person isn’t controversial just because it hasn’t crossed the line into being illegal.

What you mean to say is that she’s polarizing, because she has fans that don’t realize she’s an awful person.

Also that – thanks in large part to movements like the Arab Spring using Twitter to organize and publicize – it became the go-to social media for reporters. The news -> celebrity -> news cycle closes itself nicely there, making it very difficult for either group to go anywhere else.

It was ruined long before he touched it

It just made it worse faster

I was worried when this wasn’t anywhere near the top. These aren’t even my favourite time travel movies, they’re my favourite movies, period, and have been since I was 4.

I have first@last.email, and my community rec organization couldn’t even accept it because their system had a hard coded lost of TLDs it would recognize for email addresses.

You can have as many forks as you want, but that’s a software engineer’s solution to a social problem. Lemmy is the “name brand” now for ActivityPub based federated content aggregation, and it will be orders of magnitudes more difficult to get support for forks, both from a contributor and from a user perspective.

Just look at last year’s Twitter migration, and the sea of people complaining about Mastodon not having features they felt were a requirement for adoption, while also ignoring every other Mastodon alternative on the Fediverse that had everything they were looking for.

There’s a ‘New’ algorithm, an ‘Old’ algorithm, a ‘Hot’ algorithm, an ‘Active’ algorithm, a ‘Most Comments’ algorithm, a ‘New Comments’ algorithm, a…
