@rileytestut They really are playing a game of chicken that they started, and I don’t think the EU is going to be first to flinch.

At least for now, I plan to treat Mastodon as my home base, and Threads/Bluesky as occasional places to visit. However, this "Post interaction settings" dialog over there at Bluesky is NICE. I wish so badly for something similar here.

This is so gross. 👎🏻 × ∞

I think the thing I find most offensive about Apple of 2024 is this conviction that Apple not only gifts us developers a platform, but also we will always and forever owe them for it. With zero acknowledgement that their platform is equally reliant on us to be competitive.

@Penultimate Honestly sending a link to LinkedIn alone is enough to give me 🤨

@Penultimate I’m not actively grossed out by this but I feel like it’s adding a bunch of stuff that either iTunes already asks for or just isn’t really useful.

@TechConnectify I’ve been a gas stove disciple for years — including doing a conversion from ⚡️ → 🔥 in our home — and now you have me doubting everything. 🫨

I have been extremely blasé about Apple Vision Pro so far.

I think I was wrong.

@TechConnectify I completely agree with you, but in the car nerd circles I travel in, side markers are considered homely and uniquely American.

I’ve been testing this for a few hours and it’s excellent. It’s as they describe — an alpha — but it’s already looking great.

Plus, what a great name. ?
