Nah you’re not in position to state that. If the alternative wasn’t worse enough then you are to blame. There’s no perfect candidate. Ya could’ve voted in mid-terms, gave low approval ratings, voted for your preferred candidate during the next DNC primary. Not when it’s against Trump and project 2025. That’s choosing a nuclear bomb over a run of the mill bomb; sure both are bad but one is catastrophic. You’re mad that people chose a less severe bomb because it’s a bomb but your anger allowed something significantly more catastrophic yet you want to sit on some high horse. Sometimes you’re choosing against two bad things, choose the less terrible thing.

If there’s an unavoidable situation where people will die 10,000 v 100 I’m going to choose the least damage. You’d let 10,100 people die

That’s your opinion there’s people that believe it is. There’s people that don’t believe anything that isn’t ActivityPub is a part of the Fediverse which is strange because the term was used well before ActivityPub. But I get what you’re saying from a protocol perspective I can more so agree from your angle

I think people get the wrong idea about Nostr. To be honest I’ve seen a lot worse and illegal content on the Fediverse. Depending on the client and relay there’s a ton that can be filtered & muted.

I wonder if there’s any entities that they do partnerships with that have provisions in their contracts against this, curious if the sports leagues do. They’re notoriously protective of their IPa and rights

Hopefully they go to court to get an injunction. Hopefully, they also go to the powers that be in the EU, those same powers have been so focused on the Apple App Store they failed to take into account Google can do something like this with the Play Store. It would be a shame for the F-Droid project to end but it is completely avoidable.

Except when it comes to women and girls, he’s absolutely wrong

That is a rare case. If people actually cared and kept their word most non-maga owned news outlets would be out of business. Yet, people still watch, read and subscribe to those outlets despite them constantly posting about how crappy those orgs are. People are creatures of comfort. I imagine most that cancelled their subscriptions turned them right back on once they heard Kimmel was no longer suspended. Most major retailers and companies that dropped their DEI policies saw little to no loss.

Companies respond to big money, if enough people turned away from those companies they’d behave very differently

Holy smokes this is one of the best responses I’ve ever seen on the internet. Thanks for the information, breakdown and sources. One of the problems I’ve seen since the mass use of social media is that no matter the persons background so many people do the bare minimum. What I mean is they fall for clickbait headlines, only read the headlines, fail to check multiple sources. I get not everyone is a researcher but since we have computers in our hands it takes literally seconds to do searches. Your research helped piece so much together and I hope the family absolutely destroys this company and make it a deterrent for others to misuse these treatments

So, much of what you stated makes my head spin, maybe it’s due to the fact that it’s early but I highly doubt that’s the reason.

I would argue that’s centralisation. Instances are inherently centralised, they own the user identity, relationships and data. A user “migration” which isn’t really a migration it’s an alt account on another server, if that server is blocking or is blocked then that users social graph can be significantly impacted. There’s no way to really migrate their content.

The login wall is set by the user not by Bluesky. It’s a privacy setting

How can I contact you?

How do we keep track of the project and support it?
