Did you know?
Nearly every toot has missing replies, boosts and likes.
What are the motivations for switching apps other than "they didn't work for me/found something better"?

#OpenSource #FreeSoftware saved me again, this time connecting my #Android device to my #Linux PC running #LinuxMint, using the immensely useful #KDEconnect. Thank you!

"People in poor countries use Bitcoin to fight inflation."
No. The best they do is storing a part of their savings in "stable coins", aka USD.
Most people (from poor countries or not) are not stupid gamblers ready to put their little savings in a giant decentralized casino which can drop 30% over night from a single Tweet of Elon musk.

Do me a favor and put your socket in $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR and your temp files in XDG_CACHE_HOME. /tmp is MINE
The problem is the symbol, Google is not a corporation like the others, it poses serious threats to the safety of people, their human rights and democracy.
Never forget that #EdwardSnowden is a refugee in Russia and unable to return to the US for having unveiled the enormous NSA mass surveillance system that also serves despotic governments and in which Google played and still plays a key role.
KDE's inability to manage this situation with dignity is a sign that #KDE is now only a shadow of what it once was: it is only an infrastructure for technophiles passionate about #FOSS who like to make bombastic manifestos, documents such as Vision and Mission but who don't even give a damn about human rights.
It doesn't matter if it actually influence KDE or not, the issue is the symbol.

Top climax moaner Greta Reset deleted her 2018 post about world end in 2023 because of climax
Even if Google don't influence their decisions, it's still pornographic.
For me a real scandal is #KDE having the Google logo on the official webpage kde.org.
KDE Vision features this paragraph about privacy: "In a world where our privacy is increasingly threatened, we wanted to emphasize its importance. Freedom without the right to privacy is no freedom at all."
Still, KDE community is OK with having Google logo on their website, the logo of a corporation that profits mainly from user private data and that collaborate with governaments like the US one threatening people safety.
*This* is an actual community *officially* supporting violation of human rights.
It's just a Reddit user asking on /r/rust if there is a critique of Rust in the style of the old "Linux sucks" series by Lunduke.
Not everyone knows/follows all the Internet drama and can care of proper implementing cancel culture as morally required by some fanatics.
You posted this misleading message for boosts and likes, you'll get a report.
I am not convinced that it would help Meta or Google, rather help people move to the Fediverse while still being in contact with people that are still on Meta and Google. The same convenience of moving away from GMail to another email provider.
Again, if they are not joining the Fediverse it is because the ones that would take advantage of it are us.

David Sacks, one of Elon Musk's rich friends seen on twitter (1) explaining government is a worthless parasitical institution made obsolete by the VC space, and then, not much later, (2) HELP, GOVERNMENT, BAILOUT SILICON VALLEY BANK NOW!!
They can access the data from the Fediverse (and maybe they are) without running a public instance or involving their own well-known domains, you know it right? It is even easier for them than indexing the Web and parsing HTML pages, because the Fediverse content is already structured and available through API.
Why? If Meta or Google want data from the Fediverse it would be very easy for them to get it.
If you block some users from interacting with other users you are fragmenting the Fediverse, making the experience worse and people will avoid federation in general because it won't guarantee they can interact with who they want.
And you won't make any damage to Meta or Google. Actually, they are not joining the Fediverse because *that* would damage them and being good for the people.
