@redcrew@shawnhooper I'm a WP Engine customer who was already considering moving to Pressable before this mess started. Now I'm considering migrating everything to Ghost and abandoning WP completely after the latest move by MM.
When I Like something, it's just for me and the person who made the post.
When I boost something, it's because I want to share it with others.
There's no software in the background recording and evaluating my behavior so it can decide the best ads to show me, and what I should see or not see in my feed to increase my engagement.
It's pretty nice not being the product anymore and just enjoying the web again.
It’s starting to feel like Threads isn’t integrating ActivtyPub in good faith. Besides no new fediverse features in many months, now they’re popping up this message which will likely discourage many users from keeping it on. And if they’re influencing people to turn it off, they could then say the data suggests people aren’t interested in the feature.
@feld I suppose that's a good reason to. They can definitely seem menacing. They've only bothered me when mowing the lawn, and it is unnerving.
My biggest issue with wasps and bees has been with carpenter bees. For a couple months out of the year I can't run on the trail near my home without them attacking my head and following me everywhere.
If the cicada killing wasps also appear in force during the double brood emergence, it’s gonna be quite an event. Many of them are burrowed around my home, and while harmless to humans, they look menacing when they fly near you.
Speaking of which, they catch and paralyze cicadas, put them in the ground and inject an egg into them, all while alive. You can figure out the rest. Just another example of how hard core nature can be.
Fixed it: “Taken without permission from creators, processed and created by AI for profit and without attribution, and then edited by humans for profit with attribution given to AI.”
News media should be embarrassed to use this logo. I still long for the day when we can move to use the username and server they're on fediverse style. I'm still hoping that Meta will add ActivityPub, which will be the catalyst needed to change the paradigm away from whatever Twitter has become.
