We're back with @evan - sans mustache. I wasn't ready for this.
He's going back to the basics - Introducing the Fediverse.
@box464 you and me both

Algorithms are optimized to keep you on platform and engaged. Stay here for EVERYTHING. The platform will decide what's important for you in the moment.
Jeff Side Note: I want to re-iterate that algorithms aren't evil in and of themselves - it's the platforms that manipulate you with their algorithms that are the problem.
@box464 I got to that!

@box464 I got to that!
@evan You did. 🙂

"We'll know that the fediverse wins...when mainstream media starts showing posts from users in the fediverse rather than X, Facebook, etc."
We've already seen some of this with Bluesky, but he's right, not sure I've seen a Fediverse handle out there yet.
@box464 Thats not true at all. MSM does those ads because they are paid to, its another form of advertising.
In order to achieve that the Fediverse will have to play the same game and be working to make those corporations money for the exposure. That would be a sign not that the Fediverse is winning, but that has parts that are capitulating.

Evan's not making a great argument for using social media!
52% of users report feeling worse after using social media.
@box464 72% of americans feel worse and more stressed during the holidays. Doesn't mean we should stop having holidays, as they have some very good qualities as well. Definitely means we can change some of our traditions and expectations around those holidays.
47% make up stories to avoid family for Thanksgiving and 67% feel worse for it. Yet there are significant positives to getting together with SOME family.

Users looking for meaningful connections to other real people. Willing to look outside of large socials for that, moreso every day and with every new generation. Moving to smaller, more meaningful communities.
@box464 "we've never been more lonely" ? oh please. It wasn't that many generations ago that people living in remote places wouldn't even see people for months, or military deployments would be assumed to be years, where contact via phone happened rarely due to cost and rarity, mail was the norm with a postcard or holiday card being the only contact with family.
Are people lonely beyond their comfort level? Sure. But our tolerance to any alone time has also decreased massively.

This is fully awesome! I'm very interested in it. In fact, I'd probably want to create one such customized app for a community we're building in our town.
Where could I find more information about it! Thanks!!!!

Amazon preferisce dare la colpa ai propri ingegneri piuttosto che alla sua intelligenza artificiale
"La cosa più comune che fanno i computer è rompersi, ed essere sinceri e trasparenti su questa realtà senza far sembrare la propria piattaforma un mucchio di mattoni incoerenti che barcollano su un dirupo sopra un parco giochi è un delicato gioco di equilibri. L'affidabilità di AWS è leggendaria e, nelle rare occasioni in cui fallisce, camminano sul filo del rasoio e comunicano molto bene. Quindi sono rimasto sorpreso nello scoprire che tutto ciò che bisogna fare per spazzare via vent'anni di eccellenza e farli sembrare dei fanatici insicuri e spumeggianti è cospargerli di un po' di narrativa del tipo "forse AWS è pessima nell'intelligenza artificiale". Poi, perdono la testa."

@marcoboh @ju @matz @lysander @thatgiga ah si, il famoso italiano corretto dei fiorentini, «sta lí a dusgento metri».

@G3rt come potrei non scegliere le opzioni 1 e 3 oppure la 2 e la 4?!?
DIMMI TU COME? 😝

@fdroidorg no issues so far, thanks. The big question is how will the 148 update be handled. I don't want an “AI kill switch”, I want a browser without AI features in the first place. Will Fennec patch that shit out at the source level?

@glitchypixel I'm very interested to see where you go with this. I got really excited about VALA about ~15 years ago, and the unportability of glib to even things like wasm was one of the reasons I eventually fell off of it. I'd been hoping someone might come along and produce a middle ground between gobject and glib. It seems like that never shaked out, but patching over the deficits with a few choice libraries might actually work out really well.

@50Percent_Cooler LibreWolf Is a bit too opinionated for my taste

@manto ma è un pezzo di storia! Telefono salvavita per anziani, più anni '90 dei Crash Test Dummies!
