I never would have heard about Threads if it werent for the fediverse... which I find ironic because I signed up to it just to keep an eye, something i wouldnt have done if it wasnt for the anti-threads commotion going on over here.

UK Nottingham rapper Scorzayzee - seems like a real person just trying to do good... In a bad world.
Under-rated in my opinion...

if your employment situation allows it, ponder sending money to to people doing good work. Your skill of making money from your current industry may be the best thing you have to offer...

THOUGH SENDING MONEY TO ANYONE IS AN IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE... BANK DEPOSIT IF TRUST IS THERE.

Megalodon is a modified version of the official Mastodon Android app adding important features that are missing in the official app, such as the federated timeline, unlisted posting and an image description viewer.

You signed the contract without reading the terms?...

(fucking with the wrong company...
with the wrong ideas...)

If bodies of interaction and real people are involved it could be seen as disease or dis-ease... like sexual or bodily disease.

now downloading firefox source code :woozy_baa: yes i am compiling a firefox fork on a pentium 4 im losing it

Not only will #Threads not be launching in the EU (presumably because it'll be sucking up so much personal data that they can't make it GDPR compliant), but now the The European Court of Justice has agreed with Germany’s anti-cartel watchdog that Meta can't share harvested personal data between Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. That ruling will also apply to Threads.

A great day for consumer protections.

User-Agent discrimination - Websites blocking some browsers... 

User-Agent discrimination - Websites blocking some browsers...

Many websites worked perfectly in Vivaldi, but were blocked when not included on the site’s allowed list of leading browsers. ( even if they were Chromium-based ).

vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-on-an

And linked in this link was more about User-Agent discrimination by the developer, Yngve Pettersen about User-Agent discrimination.

Continued... (from first link)

To combat this, back in 2019, we were forced to change Vivaldi’s User-Agent strings. The User-Agent contains the web browser’s name, the name of the operating system, and other technical information.

x means hug??

Oohhh that's misleadingly coincidental!
I assumed it means kiss(es)
So x or xx ...and xxx used elsewhere don't forget! ^_^×^_^

JOKE: When I first saw a work colleague asking for a docx file, I briefly thought she was signing off with a kiss...

I've seen a swath of people complaining that #Mastodon isn't scratching the itch #Twitter did for them.. and that they aren't as inclined to check in here as they were there ..

..and they all seem to be missing the point - #socialmedia doesn't need to rely on gamified engagement to be good

There is already #fediverse chatter about future platforms that leverage an #algorithm and I'm guessing #BlueSky will be algo heavy when it goes public

Me? I'm happy my #doomscrolling days behind me...

@sharearea
1. What's the current list of Mastodon apps?
2. Any Apps that are backwardly compatible (?)
Those get my vote (so like iPhones all seems to need latest Android which is wasteful / cutting old school users off).

Android 4 i think is less 10years old

My guess is when #Meta joins the #fediverse they will technically follow the #ActivityPub protocol, but will leverage the ambiguity in the #Security Considerations of the #W3C recommendations to make two-way communication unnecessarily difficult

And if they do allow incoming messages easily from non-Meta instances, they may well be deprioritized or (more likely) hidden behind an annoying "see more posts from the Fediverse" click through

Nothing #Facebook does is in good faith; why start now?
