So far we only have a corpo fedi-twitter in form of Threads. In that case non-corpo instance user has to specifically follow someone before their content is federated so that sounds like a bit overblown issue.

That’s why I keep saying it’s pointless to defederate corpos. They’ll just scrape everything before you notice.
I was among reddit refugees a year ago and it took me a moment to notice what was going on ml and their communities were more significant in comparison to what we have today.
One of the reasons I’m on sopuli.xyz now is that it was one of the first reasonably big instances to defederate hexbear outright. Hesitance and outright hostility to defederate it from some instance admins was also worrying.
Personally I’m partial to free pizza.
It might be just a little bit more shitty to be laid off and have finances jeopardized than to fire someone. I don’t know the market you’re in but I’d never stoop so low to come back to a place that laid me off earlier, I’d really have to be desperate.
Because alternative front-ends don’t use YouTube API.
It’s the common spaces / topic-based communities that are mostly affected by this so there’s no escaping this if you’re here for the news etc
Even on gaming subs it seems like every other post results in a discussion about the evils of capitalism.
I think it depends on community, I avoid all .ml ones for that reason. Don’t get me wrong, I could go on about evils of capitalism for hours if prompted but the real issue is that most of the user base is 13 years old either in their actual age or mentally so you’re seeing same performative cynicism over and over again. I’m also getting a feeling that over last 3-4 months it got much worse.
I love that my moderation and novelty bots that reddit broke received IPO email spam lol.
I have read your comment history and formed an opinion on it. I don’t think people should take your advice.
Kbin support in Lunar is very rudimentary and read only. The app itself hasn’t been updated in 2 months so I wouldn’t get my hopes up.
Ernest is still posting devlogs:
I’m fairly sure Lemmy image embeds won’t be visible in Mastodon since it doesn’t have rich text formatting / markdown.
You’re clearly mistaken, Lemmy devs fixed it: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4288

(there’s a high chance I’m sending this into a void)
Yes, it was a good alternative, and it remains good alternative now although Matrix seems way more popular these days. Nothing really changed regardless of adopting XMPP because with a hindsight we know that for tech giants it’s the platform and not protocol that captures mainstream popularity:
The article lacks some details that are inconvenient to the point it makes. What was the state of XMPP before being adopted by tech giants and after they dropped it / walled it off? What could be done to prevent it?
Beeper already fixed iMessage on Beeper Cloud and is working on restoring Beeper Mini. Might take some back and forth but it still wouldn’t be surprise if it makes their reimplementation more resilient to Apple tampering.
Guy wanted to vent about smart thermostats, explicitly said he doesn’t need advice and got bajillion responses with advice, mostly from FOSS folks who couldn’t contain themselves. I’d be annoyed too.
There’s no real harm in that unless they spam, at which point those accounts can be banned which shouldn’t overwhelm moderators.
