Mastodon builds on the ActivityPub protocol with its own API, but the last time I looked into it, the documentation of the API was poor, so it was difficult to develop for.
I haven’t looked at the BlueSky docs so I can’t compare, but it sticks in my craw a bit seeing the words “friendly for third-party devs” being used in the same sentence with Mastodon
I love the flat earther energy in this
I don’t get it.
The only use for a printer in this situation that I can think of is printing individual video stills and making them into an erotic flick-book, but I’m sure that’s not it
sudoers getting renamed to grownups
Be careful who you trust with your data! And back it up
As long as they don’t find a problem with maltitol. I just discovered “low-sugar” ice creams made using the stuff and they’re amazing
It’s not zero sugar like erythritol, and it’s not as sweet, but I like it
The original article is paywalled (I mean, registration-walled?), this summary is not
404 Media reported that 4chan users claimed to be sharing personal data and selfies from Tea after discovering an exposed database.
No-one suspected Bruce Wayne’s “free WiFi for Gotham City” initiative
It doesn’t even try?
People are right, this AI thing is overblown
Maybe wearing a different tinfoil hat every day would mess up a person’s “fingerprint”
Hmm… How many significant figures of pi was it made to?
I’m not sure how much it would make sense for me as I don’t use Nextcloud for anything else
I just want a self-hostable open-source alternative to the shitty closed-source IM systems I’m forced to use
I’m sticking with Matrix for now, hopefully some of the issues I’ve had will get ironed out
I wonder how you haggle with an AI
Actually this reminds me of the story a while back about how LLMs give better results if you threaten them with physical violence. Maybe that’s one way to get a cheaper ticket?
This is genuinely really classy
As long as most rooms of the entire matrix network are replicated on the matrix.org homeserver
Is this a dealbreaker for people though?
Can AI reliably tell if a cat is longer than a banana yet?
Never heard “JAQing off” before, that’s good
The ecosystem is not so healthy on the server side, and I think the API documentation is a major factor.
The project has been sitting on this for many years
You could say it’s an improvement over BlueSky because with Mastodon you can host your own server, but if you don’t like their server, then you’re out of options
