#FAANG / #SiliconValley exists simply because people allow it to.
Now it's hard to ascribe individual blame to a lack of collective consciousness, but sometimes you do have to ever so gently head-butt someone (colloquially speaking) to get them to see their small part in the overall crime.
I was just reading a toot today about how horrible Amazon's hiring practices are.
Yet Amazon has no issues finding people willing to work for them.* Gestures broadly
Humanity kinda sucks.
But it can get better.

I've also lost Xbanish, and there doesn't seem to be any kwin setting to automatically hide the mouse cursor when typing, which is super annoying (macs got this right in the 80s, people!). I also have a weird thing where the mouse cursor is two different sizes depending on what part of the window it's hovering over O_o

@gordoooo_z @PhenomX6 @futurebird @ink8 Whatever Eugen decides at this point it’s irrelevant. He’s pretty much lost his grip over holding the Fediverse brand as secondary to the notion of a fantasy “mastodon network” when he gave that Time Magazine interview two months ago in which the word “Fediverse” appeared not one single time - that caused enormous, untold damages including confusion that remains in the news media and disenfranchisement of large swaths of developers and users alike on not just other platforms, but mastodon instances themselves.
There’s really no such thing as toots anymore, Eugen himself refers to “Posts” and “Quote Posts”, and the submit button in mastodon now says “publish”. The reason #Misskey calls them “notes” is because that’s what they are actually called in #ActivityPub - there are also other types, that other platforms use as well, including “article”, although, instances like #qoto have set the character count for notes at 65535 🙂
It’s been covered in this thread already that Quote Posts are simply beyond the control of mastodon devs, Eugen’s edicts, or local mastodon users or admins, because most other platforms support it and there isn’t anything #mastopub can do about it. In Misskey, users can disallow it, but that only affects other local users, so it’s s moot point (except for silo instances).
There are very few Fediverse platforms that aren’t taking advantage of most things that are possible, for example, #Soapbox now has federated events, and introduced custom emoji reactions like Misskey has, and live chat - Misskey’s traditionally led the way with these federating features with #Calckey going even further.
Some platforms however, intentionally incorporate a leaner set of features; #Smithereen is one example, it doesn’t even sccomodate boosts, which harkens back to #Myspace, #VKontakte (aka, “VK” - not sure I spelled that right), and very early #Faceplant days. #Epicyon has anti-silo capabilities baked in.
#Mitra has #Substack style subscriptions at it’s core. Anyone can subscribe remotely from any Fediverse server instance where the user can receive DMs - and in congruence with privacy concerns that are typically expected for Fediverse implementations, it’s based on #Monero (XMR).
Most platforms also support #Markdown, with Cakckey being perhaps supporting the greatest superset IIRC, including #LaTEX, and #Friendica, being much older than msstodon, has continued to evolve over the past decade and still has support for #BBCode too, and direct links for uploading images for those who prefer to.
I didn’t see any mention of Markdown support when I bothered to look at the mastopub roadmap, yet even on that platform, Quote Posts are all throughout the stream and people boost and reply to them as the time - and, as mentioned earlier, anyone can create a post, simply pasting the link from someone else’s post, and then boost that… Voila! Local #Quote_Post.
mastodon was successful in its arrogance of leveraging some pretty graphics and welcoming verbiage into a brand that Eugen weaponized against virtually all other Fediverse platforms, and now, with all of the fine forks like #Hometown and several newcomers, we’ll soon be seeing hardforking as a result of that hostility.
But not just forks, funding and ambitious development as evidenced by existing and emerging platforms like #Cloudflare’s #Wildebeest, Tumbler, and the very unique, #Django based Takahē Fediverse server that I wrote about here:
https://tallship.writeas.com/takahe-a-new-fediverse-paradigm
Average people are already migrating in larger numbers everyday away from the archaic mastodonian resource hog to other, more capable and promising (and friendlier) platforms elsewhere in the Fediverse that have integrated and fully support #masto_migration, and even ones that don’t (yet) haver that feature.
Unlike other dinosaurs and the eponymous mammal for which Eugen chose the namesake of his #TootSuite product, we shouldn’t expect extinction for his platform, but the apathy and indifference levels are rising, as is the enmity in many sectors of the community for what others perceive as a betrayal (or sellout), and that kind of self-inflicted damage is often difficult to mitigate, with waves of disenchantment reverberating get into the future… Just look at what happened to #SourceForge - it still technically exists, but never recovered after the community betrayal it committed years ago.
And finally, there’s a irony so obvious that’s it’s not even plausible to deny… Eugen subverted the very rudimentary principal that the Fediverse network is ideologically predicated upon - #DeSoc… There’s no question that his goals shifted to that if building a silo for himself, at least to some great degree. Very sad.
An interesting thing about condescending others, you find yourself alone and isolated in an otherwise vibrant, busy world.

#Oddly specific 🤣
Grammatical rules break down a bit when using repeating consonants to indicate lengthened speech.
I try to repeat consonants instead of vowels when that's an option to avoid confusion, but there's no real way to do that with 'not.' -

@RL_Dane @Haijo7 @niccolove @benjaminhollon @gordoooo_z @sotolf i think b/c the phone maker must pay jolla for a official port? But community port would be awesome, too. Check also #shiftphones... What i dislike about volla is that they use #mediatek ... So no kernel updates x.x

I'm surrounded by people who don't squeeze excess air out of Ziploc bags before sealing them (if they even seal them at all), and it drives me absolutely banaynays.

Can someone please explain to me why an Apache mod_rewrite rule would apply in Chrome, but not in Firefox? Basically, I'm taking the requested subdomain, e.g. [something].mywebsite.com, and using that string to 301 redirect to mywebsite.com/[something]. Works perfectly in Chrome, but hasn't worked in Firefox in a while (first version worked in both, but I had to reimplement it after a WordPress update overwrote it) and I have no idea why that should be a thing. We basically have zero Firefox users attempting to use the subdomain aside from myself, so it doesn't *really* matter, but I just want to understand (and avoid an unnecessary customer service email in the event that a Firefox user scans the QR code and erroneously ends up at the homepage; yes, the subdomain was a mistake. But the QR codes are out there by the thousands, so it's too late for me now lol).
I should say that the majority of my mod_rewrite experience was probably a decade or so ago, so I'm definitely pretty rusty.
The rule:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www\.)([^.]+)\.(mywebsite\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%2/%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE] -

This is the kind of weird obsessive thing I can lose a hours to, with zero warning... I'm not one of those people who uses subtitles even though I can hear perfectly fine, but we usually have them on because my s/o likes them. Anyway, I was tweaking YouTube's subtitle settings, but for whatever reason decided they weren't quite granular enough, so I opened up Stylus (custom CSS extension) to get it just right, and well, uh... I got a little carried away.

5 months into self-hosting my single-user instance, and I have zero complaints. The cost comes up to $6usd/mo. (~$8 cad, atm), and there’s headroom to spare. I’m running Akkoma on Fedora (which I thought was 38 but is actually 37 so I guess I should probably update it).
This is on a Vultr “Cloud Compute” server, with the “AMD High Performance” option (EPYC CPU + NVMe storage) on the lowest tier: 1 vCPU, 1GB memory, and 25GB storage. As an irritable person who hates waiting for things to load, it’s performed beautifully.
I can’t comment on Mastodon. While I’m told it’s a bit of a resource hog, especially as it scales, it might be perfectly fine for a single user instance, although when I was first considering self-hosting, I was advised that I’d be better off spending $15 or $20 minimum on a more capable server for Mastodon. I can’t refute or confirm that statement, so use your own judgement, but I don’t really like the way the Mastodon project is run, and I like being able to use Markdown, even if barely anybody will see it.
