While I do favour that UI improvements are needed - in particular for guest views and community sidebars, I’d say defo chasing the “big social” trends and UIs is not the way to go. Heck, I left Reddit partly because of the new UI (I know about old.reddit, it’s just there’s no promise of any kind to maintain it).

no no no no, I prefer the current status of things to anything blockchain.

holaaaaaaaa mundoooooo

I hope this teaches them the valuable lesson of always having domains with more than one registrar.

Or, hopefully, we migrate to a system more advanced than DNS registrars where your “name” can be taken down by an unrelated third party. The current system sucks and the fact that even the Fediverse relies on it (accounts are tied to domains, making full account migration impossible) makes even the remains of my pre-graduate CS student brain rumble.

I don’t want to, BUT companies are supposed to make efforts to protect their IP or they run the risk of losing those exclusive protections when it matters later on (abandonment).

My understanding is that 1.- they are not forced to defend against every possible case of trademark usage 2.- they are not obligated by law to be jerks about it and 3.- this applies to trademark only, not copyright or patents.

Fair point, he literally got it at just a finger’s length to destruction.

Might recall wrong but Frodo did not destroy the One Ring, didn’t he? He tried to protect it and use it but tripped on a meat-hungry Gollum at the last second.

Now now let’s be fair, at least animal excrement has a direct, practical purpose when put down on the ground.

To celebrate, I went on a (buying) spree on a rented e-bike today!

(Unfortunately it’s a bit costly around here)

It entirely depends on the channels you watch. All of the comments I read on the channels I follow are fine. I don’t know what other people are having a problem with, but maybe they shouldn’t be following Mr. Beast or Logan Paul bullshit.

Oh how much I wish people would listen to you on this…

I womder if “history is cyclic” applies here somehow and all that…

But I feel it’s kinda a more domain-specific thing. I’d venture and take the guess that people in some fields such as origami or other arts & crafts, as well as cooking, would actually have far better use for instructions and how-tos in video format (or at least in audio…) than in text, for one.

(I’ll be both happy and unhappy to be ackshually’d, and for the same reasons :p)

Fun that you say “turbo fucked” when Turbo was 1.- the first season without Rita in a villain role and 2.- the first seasons where the Rangers canonically lost.

Well at least Chrome is kinda multicolor…

Firefox tho… I can’t recall the last season that had a mammal ranger (it’s usually dinosaurs or vehicles), let alone an orange Ranger.

Mods should be joining in on the celebration instead, in particular unpaid / community ones like Reddi’s.

Could be wrong, or just more domain-specific, bu my experience is people don’t complain that the video is 15-30 minutes long, is that it’s a video (and that long) when the information could have been more succintly and practically displayed in a text tutorial or a blog format. Basically “this could have been an e-mail”.

Not to mention that way people avoid having to go to YT which is yet another cesspit community-wise.

You are right that people have shorter attention spans ofc, but then again when it comes to tackling it it’s largely an issue of medium: in the world of coding you can convey easily copyable or testable instructions in text format maybe with attachments, that can be verified in up to 60 seconds… or you could post a 30 minutes long video plus ads. Why would anyone expect the Fediverse, with the kind of people who are naturally attracted to it, to prefer the latter, no idea.

You don’t understand why or how platforms like these got made, don’t you?

If enough people came in to “put them in their place”, the way you describe, this place would basically become Threads (or Twitter) anyway.

Se ve adoptable.

Wasn’t Theora the set-and-forget free option? Don’t recall if it had the “good” part tho.

Oh you sweet child.

This post is actually so stupid, they didn’t take shit from us, it’s still right there.

It’s not. it’s quite visibly not there.

USB-A/B is very outdated.

I take it you are offering to provide me with the adapters needed for all my USB-A devices, and my square-USB printers, for free? Because your mouth certainly runs well oiled.

USB-C can be used to deliver audio, video, ethernet connection, etc. You didn’t lose any functionality. Worst case scenario you’d need a hub for the card readers or a usb to usb-c adapter, or ethernet to usb-c.

Worst case scenario is if you have one sole USB-C connector and it breaks or is damaged. You’d lose all the eggs you had in one basket, whereas with separate adequate connectors you’d at least get to keep some workflow.
