I listened to it a LOT in my teens. They’re amazing.

Hybrid - bri’ish breakbeat band. Really really good for people who like a darker (as in moody) sounding electronic music.

Raon Lee, mostly know for her covers, but her originals are also great. Next one below!

It doesn’t make it less of a crime against good design. Low contrast for reading is bad practice.

Commenting counts as creating content right? If so, I’ll be glad to continue as a serial commenter and rare poster :')

Yup, boring lives are a goal to strive for in our world. That means financial stability with not many serious issues going on.

Goddamn I want my life to be as boring as possible.

It’ll happen when they capture the biggest portion of Twitter’s users. As soon as that happen enshittification shall descend upon it.

Yup, capitalism pushes them to try to own/incorporate everything that can either be a threat or a resource for the business.

It’s really not primed for development. I’d use Arch, Fedora, openSUSE or Debian for that.

Being opt-out instead of opt-in is icky. I don’t have much faith in RedHat related projects after the recent debacles (RHEL trying to kill off Alma and Rocky and Fedora’s project manager being fired with no replacement).

As a Fedora user, I’m really tired of being disappointed. Gonna wait for my vacation to switch to Debian.

Yup, Meta is planning to implement ActiveHub (the protocol Mastodon, Lemmy, Kbin and others use to communicate with each other) and federate with us. We’re better off blocking them.

As much as I dislike porn (exploitation industry etc) this is a good take.

The apps for the fediverse aren’t responsible for federating with Meta, the instances (servers) are.

If my instance (lemmy.world) federates with Meta, I need only to switch servers (say, to lemmy.ml or lemm.ee), not stop using the current app I use (mostly Jerboa, but also Thunder and LiftOff).

ActivityPub won’t ever “truly” die, it might lose the chance of becoming “the salvation from mega corporations running the internet” though. We’ll always have the possibility of running small-ish, tight-knit instances.

But agreed, fuck Zuckerberg and his cronies.

I disagree with your threat assessment, but thanks for that link, it was indeed a good read.

Which corroborates Eugen either being really damn naive or a paid shill.

I almost got Klee’s outfit because it’s hella cute, but I don’t even like using Klee :(

I also expect lemmy.ml to defederate since Dessalines and Nutomic admin it. I have an account on Lemmygrad as a “safe house” from enshittification, but I intend to keep it mainly for my studies and be able to still use this one for general crap (hello Genshin Impact).

Hope lemmy.world admins don’t be too naive about Meta.

Based mastodon.art, I don’t use Mastodon anymore (microblogging isn’t my thing) but I’m glad I set my account there when I tried it. I remember the folks there being quite the lively and caring bunch.

In the current age we don’t even have to be that old to have been screwed by big corporations more than once. I guess anyone in their 20s would have by now gone through it at least thrice.

And we’re now getting the Meta shills as well, wanting everyone to federate with Threads because “what harm is there in federating with a fascist mega corporation? You’re being too judgmental and intolerant”
