@BeAware this sounds like a stupid change

@BeAware yeah I remember when netflix and hulu covered pretty much everything...those were the days

@BeAware well that's not the greatest deal, but I'm glad they are recovering.

@BeAware No, but I've been tempted to look in on them again. I used to love watching them. But I still feel it was going down hill with Hogan and losing the 6 sided ring. #TNA

@BeAware yeah always seems like answers lead to more questions.

@BeAware can it be forked?

@BeAware oops someone probably getting chewed out for that one. upside at least it wasn't a title match.

@BeAware correct. From most users perspective their instance may say whatever is a no no and defederate with instances that allow so you may not actually see it. But there's probably one at least out there that will talk about all kinds a whacked crazy stuff.

@BeAware yeah it'd be nicer in camel case. But that might be my ocd programmer brain talking.

@BeAware I'd like that. but at least when I'm on my computer and not on ivory or icecubes sometimes it starts suggesting as I type.

like this

@WarnerCrocker So was this a flex to scare people or China, an oops we weren't supposed to do that yet?

@BeAware @rolle @linchiao wouldn't break like 5 if that

@BeAware @h3artbl33d

@BeAware ahhh. Cool idea but you are correct. VC is going to want ROI. Let the enshitification begin!

@BeAware Ok I know I could Kagi that, but what is OpenVibe?

@BeAware "new" toy, nearly everyone wanted to play with it. "oooooo shiny!!"

Step 1 build a somewhat Fediverse instance
Step 2 cash in on competition stupidity and withhold ads at first to grow big userbase
Step 3 test partial federation but make it inconvenient so people will no jump out of the boiling pot.
Step 4 Test AI profiles
Step 5 Test ads
Step 6 begin rolling out ads so your users get used to it thinking there is no where better to go (see 3)
Step 7 Quietly increase federation
Step 8 AI profiles post fake ads to all Fedi
Step 9 PROFIT

Hmm. I applaud them having a toggle and understand many will want it…but should this change to opt out?? #Apple #AppleIntelligence #ai

@BeAware Perhaps they've been trapped in too many wall gardens to know what to do in an open platform?

@BeAware @gtronix The have little reason to, that just encourages more users to go ad free on the fediverse at large and still follow whomever on threads.
