Yesterday I proudly did my part in this survey.

Fixed controller input inconsistently working in Big Picture mode windows.

God yes.

I used to have the “Founders Edition” subscription tier from when GeForce Now was introduced. It was like 25$/quarter and a limited time offer for the first subscribers of GeForce Now. It was on par with the premium tier (best servers, no time limit, and best quality + ray tracing). Of course, over the years, it got degraded to second best servers, 6 hour session limit, max. 1080p and so on … Then I quit.

I’m more concerned about becoming a meat noodle from getting sucked through a goofball sized hole when there is a leak in the train hull.

This, tbh. You don’t get bullied for something, you get bullied because bullies want to bully.

Was uns auf der Arbeit aufgefallen ist, dass wir deutlich öfter und regelmäßig falsch zugestellte Briefe im Postfach haben. Manchmal legen wir die selben Briefe 5-6 mal zu den Rückläufern.

From my understanding of your earlier comment you said casual Threads users will find out about Lemmy servers for the first time and I asked about how that will work out from the perspective of a threads user. I hoped for an answer of that.

What do you mean by “find Lemmy servers?” I mean, can you describe how that will look like from the perspective of someone that is using threads? And how that will motivate more common people to change the platform or browsing behavior?

What is concerning is his wording about “to leave threads”. Consider that whatever saying in this interview is carefully laid out beforehand. What reason is there for a corporation that is living of it’s users to just so casually let them leave like they please with everything that is giving value to Meta? He is not talking about wanting the users to leave threads, but to be able to migrate either direction. Who is going to win that fight in the end? The corporation who’s solely goal is to win or the free and open community that is so tolerant that it invites the beast it fled from?

Great, so he is already talking about how to extend activityPub? He says that like this function will be a one way street. This is literally what many here are talking about.

What happens if you merge the user base of a small network and a huge network? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_effect Will the small network gain from the huge one or the other way round? Also there is a lot to gain. The users base of the fediverse and it’s infrastructure grew by 5x in the last two years: https://fedidb.org/ Meta has a big interest in extinguishing a competitor before it profits from the bandwagon effect.

Great and such, but the large majority that might come to the Fediverse will never look nor use that function. If we don’t defederate with our instances now, we never will.

Relatively, yes. But look at what happened in the last two years: https://fedidb.org/

A natural network effect will pull in users in a network. Watering down our decentralized network with Metas network will make all of Fediverses advantages indistinguishable from the users perspective. Decentralization is not something you experience as a user anyway so there will be no obvious reason for someone coming from threads to switch over to the Fediverese. The other way round is more likely. Meta has insane design and market power to push out better Apps, faster CDNs and marketing to give users a better “Fediverse”.

Yes, but I advocate for decentralized social media to become the status quo and not the fallback role when corpo controlled media ends it’s life cycle via enshittification again.

You can: by making it irrelevant. It’s not dead then, but not used also. And that is what’s planned here.

Curious users can find the fediverse anyway if there were interested in changing social media platforms. Meta has NO good reasonable use to integrate the fediverse. Compared to Metas cumulative social media user size we are but a tiny hub of users. So here again: there is NO good reason for them to just causally go “oh hi guys, let’s be friends!” The only reason is to extinguish competition before it gets larger. It’s like Starbucks slapping down a store next to your local coffee shop because “wow we both like coffee, let’s be friends so our customers can enjoy coffee together and have a talk!” It’s a deceptive strategy.

Yes, still then there are only very limited software configurations that are allowed.

It’s not even really better on Windows. (Nearly) all streaming services restrict resolution to 720p if you watch on a PC, mobile phone or tablet. With the exception of Netflix if you watch with Microsoft Edge or Chrome, I believe.

Everyone here makes the joke only once. But you have many friends here!
