These are great ideas, but in the short term, I think we're going to see a lot of instances blocking Threads completely because of this.

If they were part of a secret organization, they sure couldn't openly say so in a Fedi poll.

Nobody can honestly answer yes to this question.

Threads users can't reply to Fediverse replies.

Yeah, I wasn't clear. That's what I was trying to ask when I asked if they had enabled replying yet. I meant, do they yet allow Threads users to reply to Fediverse comments.

So, not yet, I guess. It's all one-way right now, and still siloed away from Threads interactions.

It will be nice if they ever become a true participant of the Fediverse, and not just simply a passive semi-consumer of it.

@evan@cosocial.ca @evanprodromou@threads.net

And it looks like my reply to you didn't even show up on Threads under the "Fediverse replies" section on your post. Maybe because I mentioned a separate Fedi account; not sure.

@evan@cosocial.ca @evanprodromou@threads.net

Have they enabled replying yet? Are fedi comments still relegated to a second tab so most people won't see them? @evanprodromou@threads.net @evan@cosocial.ca

I need to vent a little bit.

I've been out of work for close to two months now. I know that many people have been looking for a lot longer than me. But, I had a really good prospect at a company that I respect, and felt that I was a great fit for what they were looking for.

After a bunch of interviews, all of which seemed very positive, I got word this morning that they wouldn't be making an offer.

This was so incredibly disheartening. I even have a friend who just started working there who was talking me up to them.

This is now the third time I've gotten far in the interview process, only for them not to make an offer.

I'm just feeling so frustrated now. The last time I lost a job (four and a half years ago) I had an offer at another company is less than two weeks.

Now, it's been nearly two months. I've sent out over 80 applications, gotten interviews at five or six companies, with three of them getting pretty far. But I can't get to the offer.

Anybody who I've ever worked with would tell you that I'm smart, talented, a hard worker, and a fast learner. But, none of that seems to be enough right now.

I've got an initial interview at another company on Tuesday. So I'm going to keep plugging away at this. But right now, man, I feel really demotivated.

In a couple months my severance is going to run out, and I have to have a new job before then.

If anybody knows any jobs for a senior PHP or golang developer, please let me know. This can't go on much longer.

What are the conventions? Are these documented anywhere? @apps@toot.fedilab.app

People don't capitalize Internet? I always capitalize Internet.

@fediversereport@mastodon.social

I would like to see Mastodon get a little pressure to support more of the standard, and others to follow suit.

I was thinking the other day about building a Fediverse location-sharing app (like Foursquare).

The vocabulary is all there (Arrive activity at a Place object being the most basic), but would it gain any steam if Mastodon didn't know what do with those other activities?

People would want to be able to cross-post to Mastodon, but Mastodon would just ignore it all, as would most other AP apps.

@bobwyman@mastodon.social @evan@prodromou.pub

@apps@toot.fedilab.app Found a formatting issue in Fedilab. The issue occurs when there's a ul inside a blockquote.

Basically, the bullets for the li appear outside the left margin for the blockquote, even though they're inside it.

Trying to keep up with remainders. But I don't know if I can do it. Oh no, I've subtracted too much. I haven't subtracted enough.
