Me da la sensación de que el departamento de marketing de Bluesky está ganando la partida. Tal vez el fediverso debería invertir menos recursos en ingeniería y poner algo de esfuerzo en venderse (alguna nota de prensa de vez en cuando tal vez fuese suficiente, el 90% de lo que leo sobre Bluesky es eso, notas de prensa republicadas por los medios)

No, he is not the owner of Mastodon. No, his company is not responsible for what happens there, because there is no company or similar. A non-profit foundation (chaired by Eugen Rochko) develops the software and launches it on mastodon.social, and that foundation does not even participate in what the rest of the instances do. They could go crazy tomorrow, sell the domain or change the software to make it more invasive, the rest of the instances would be sent to hell and the network would continue as if nothing had happened

It has an owner who can do with it whatever he wants. When you participate in that, you give value to another’s property. Matodon, lemmy and the rest of the fediverse are collective, they do not have a single owner, giving value to the platform only gives value to its users.

I don’t know about the rest, but for me that is an insurmountable problem.

Podrían redondear la noticia anunciando que se van a hacer cuenta en Mastodon.

I see people praising the film, I must have fallen asleep too and dreamed things like:

The man who made the maps getting lost (well, he had a weird hairstyle and screamed like a madman when he entered, it seems that he was not a very serious man, it is clear that they chose him for the most expensive and important mission in history because… who knows)

The biologist who panics and flees two frames later takes off his glove (!!!) and tries to touch a clearly threatening snake with his bare hand, it has been a long time since I saw such a satisfying death.

A strange liquid about which nothing is explained but which, depending on the scriptwriter’s convenience, kills instantly, turns you into a zombie, turns you into a zombie but with a delay so that you can screw your girlfriend and she has some kind of proto-alien.

Ancient cultures painted the constellation of that planet, how did they know it? Why did they paint it? It’s supposed to be a military base for the architects, not their home planet, painting the address to a random military base from their culture makes zero sense.

The movie is full of religious references that lead to nothing, they cross half the galaxy and just arrive on Christmas day, what a convenient convenience that leads the viewer nowhere.

… … …

Of course, the scriptwriter is Damon Lindelof, so it’s obvious that all the inconsistencies of the script simply lack a coherent answer.

Enjoy it if you can because this movie only manages to piss me off every time I try to watch it.

You have all the official addresses, I recommend using the Tor network

The comparison of the person proposed for the equivalent position in the European Union is interesting.

I’ve seen that kind of argument before and I understand it, but I can’t agree. I think it’s not the majority that makes the site bad, it’s a ridiculously small minority, driven by the site’s algorithm to be highly visible, that creates a vicious circle where more people become polarized (as a reaction but also to gain visibility and relevance).

A site like Bluesky, with its investors and shareholders, will sooner or later fall into the same thing, Mastodon could be the place to leave that tiny group of crazies in their own secluded space. It would be a gain for society but I think the window of opportunity is closing.

What? magic? that’s a really weird way to refer to a website, are you a teenager in love? if twitter was ever cool it was maybe in 2012-2014 (during occupy wall street) but it certainly wasn’t just musk who took down the site. Enjoy when Bluesky discovers he can make more money with polarization, the magic is over

This is really sad. A half-decent marketing campaign, a few press releases saying it’s the new Twitter and people just sign up. There’s Mastodon. We’ve been so close. It’s sad

He’s going to Threads??? They have finally launched the metaverse and no one has told me anything??? I don’t see any other rational reason to do something like that.

I’m not going to discuss it with you, because I’m not a doctor nor is it the issue, but the health authorities (at least the European ones) do not agree with your statement.

Estoy de acuerdo pero para mi hace demasiado calor, yo soy del norte y me gusta el calor pero en este caso es excesivo.

Empiezo yo mismo. Creo que el lugar que mas me ha impresionado ha sido la mezquita de Córdova. Es impresionante tanto la parte de mezquita como la catedral esa que tiene incrustada en el medio y medio, precioso.

Personally I think that financing a platform like this with premium subscriptions is illusory. I could be wrong but what are they going to offer as a premium?

I think it may be interesting to note that Spotify is closing its first green year in its history this year, for reference.

Ok. You are in a situation of harassment and you believe that giving your data and delegating your security to a private company that responds to economic interests is a viable long-term solution.

There are things that one cannot argue against

I will count it as a victory when my government’s communication channels with me are not private property. A government-owned Mastodon server for official accounts would be logical (the EU already has it even though it barely uses it)

Well, I am not a systems engineer to answer your question, in any case smaller Hitlers equals Hitlers with less power. Dividing power is not the definitive solution to authoritarianism, but it usually helps a lot, especially if the agents are also competitive. “If you are too Hitler, I’ll go to this other server that is a little less so” is a valid incentive to avoid the Hitlerization of the admins.

I don’t think I’ve ever used the name Hitler so much.

Ok, I haven’t denied that, the tools are different (I don’t even know Twitter’s tools very well), I debate whether that is worth enough to accept that it is centralized. If over time they consider that something else is more profitable, they will change the moderation tools, have no doubt.

Ok, if for you the API is the most important thing, go ahead, I’m worried about more companies doing “things” with my data, everyone has their priorities.

P.S. Unlike in BlueSky in Mastodon you can be 100% sure that the API will never be closed, in Bluesky it will depend on variable business interests
