As an atheist, I’m constantly amazed how much Christianity abandoned that whole WWJD thing — what *would* Jesus do, indeed.

HOLY SHIT y'all.

So, you may have saw my post about trying to attract a larger gaming community in the Fediverse.

Well, apparently it attracted some really horrible folks!

YIKES.

This week’s runs. So stupid humid. It’s too hard to put into words how much I dislike Summer. You can’t even breathe! 😥

@christowski @publix @zoraxzora @filter Publix? The southern American grocery store chain? Super weird.

@mike @tchambers @mastodonmigration @laurenshof @cheeaun @rolle @scottjenson @zeldman Hey! I’m an old too! GEN X REPRESENT! From a Vic20 and my friend’s TRS-80 to my first internet connection back in 91 managing a computer lab at USF in Tampa. Tis twas a different time. Decentralized is simply “rejoining” the internet the way it was (and probably should’ve stayed). Biggest regret was centralizing information to social media companies.

Well this will end poorly.

@mike @tchambers @mastodonmigration @laurenshof @cheeaun @rolle @scottjenson @zeldman You may be too young to remember, but we absolutely had to “join” the World Wide Web! Your internet provider was capital D Decision at one point. Now it’s more like setting up your electric and water bill. lol.

@grishka Given they a) aren't decentralized and b) want to operate in those countries, yeah, they will have to comply or leave the country.

The real issue is the bullshit "billionaire proof" & claims of decentralization, which Bluesky is neither.

@grishka @cwebber as I understand it, if Turkey shuts down the main Bluesky instance, bsky.social, if I had my own "instance", it would go black as well.

Here, if you shut down mastodon.social, mstdn.social keeps on trucking.

Microblogging peaked when Tumblr peaked. I'm surprised no one has made an app that adjusted the #Mastodon feed to look more like #Tumblr (content ABOVE the caption, + text only posts, reblog comments BELOW original content, etc).

I saw @dansup was heading that direction in OG #pixelfed days years back, but more #Instagram style later.

But yo, #Fediverse - what do you think? Do you miss peak Tumblr? Am I crazy?

There’s an irony that an #Instagram account that “makes cool AI art”, a thing that steals from other artists, is complaining about an AI video maker stealing from them “without consent”.

Too soon?

Saw this in a far left subreddit and honestly, if you are anti-immigration, please unfollow me now.

Fuck, I’m pro NO borders at all y’all.

@jacklaridian yeah, that's all I remember as well, his attempt at a small business which I *think* survived? But before that? I assume some basic office job.
