IIRC someone needs to be fired for allowing it to happen?

Edit: I don’t have a source readily available. This is anecdotal.

That seems charitable.

Conveniently no more than 35 again.

Now how is the young generation going to learn how to pronounce Igor?

Now can you convince the masses?

For the unititiated

Maybe these people need to feel the cycle first hand a few more times and that’s okay. ActivityPub will be even stronger when it comes around again.

At least maybe some more regular people will learn about decentralization (and alternative ways there) from this mass adoption?

is also decentralized and is federated, meaning it is moving toward a future where users “own” their audiences and can port them elsewhere (you can, and many do, argue about the details here, and about the differences between ActivityPub, which Mastodon uses, and the AT Protocol, which Bluesky uses).

Best coverage yet for that alone

I mostly scroll through the feed and chime into topics where I feel I can contribute to.

That’s good too but maybe consider lowering your bar on what it takes to “contribute”.

I have left many simple comments that have led to someone chiming in with something insightful that they may not have commented otherwise

Does your interface not show the instance with the community name?

Ptecisely, that’s how I always saw it. Say /r/games and /r/gaming, ostensibly those should have the same content but each had its own culture (or did at one point, who knows now)

Our bodies n brains are so cool. Think about what goes into locating a sound in space.

Edit: there’s more to it but at the most basic level your brain calculates the fraction of a second difference between when one ear picks up a sound and when the other does creating a reference point based on that.

The internet is pretty mainstream now. Being a virgin is no longer a prerequisite.

Not all Muslims are extremists.

Edit: who tf would downvote this statement?

You doin’ okay?

We don’t. We just continue to stay here and grow and flourish naturally. I see no need to rush.
