mfs doing stuff like this really need to stop living in america bruh 💀

idk maybe it's just frivolous thinking, but imo since social media is corrupted by corporate profiteering brought about by venture capitalists, a social media platform that can be scaled and run very cheaply and in a decentralised fashion (think JUST text posts, all media has to be somehow hosted externally) could genuinely succeed, and be BOTH a mainstream place, while also being friendly to its users, and creating a friendly and cozy environment 🤷‍♀️

this is the real answer hehe

no, but sometimes you'll go to all kinds of far away and hard-to-access destinations to get a particular tattoo 🤷‍♀️

easy, just go on a fast (eat nothing, can drink water and zero cal energy drinks) and/or very low cal keto (avocados), take vitamin and electrolyte supplements

me 😊

i kinda agree with /u/u_tamtam, it's standard practice to not change titles when posting articles to link aggregators, so most users (reasonably so) operate off of the assumption that the titles aren't altered

this gets esp confusing, when ppl change the headlines only slightly

plenty of places w/ no extradition 🤷‍♀️

if both instances are federated with each other, you can simply copy the url of the community on another instance and paste it into the search field of your instance, then click on the community that pops up

from there you can subscribe to it to see posts from it in your feed, upvote/downtove/make posts and comments

it really does lol, still can’t quite get used to it

do you think there’s no value in not misleading ppl who don’t engage w/ the post? 🤷‍♀️

it allows you to write graphics code in a backend-independent manner (supporting vulkan and metal for example), looking a little closer, it looks like a nice level of abstraction over various rendering backends 👀

comrade linus 🫡🫡

but also he’s finnish, which is communist, so he’s obviously a communist smh 🤷‍♀️

here, have an upvote

if your current rent suddenly because very expensive, or you can’t afford the current rent bc you lost your job, then ye, it’s not a reasonable option, but the only option 🤷‍♀️

not misleading per se (more like confusing), bc ppl may choose read the article and engage with the post depending on the title of the article, which they expect to come from the publisher, not the user posting the link to the article (but that's just my opinion 🤷‍♀️)

it’s a joke 😉

does anyone know what kind of moderation 4chan has? tbh, if it didn't attract all racists, nazis in the world, i think that kind of forum would be onto something interesting 🤔

ok, then (depending on what kind of consulting you do though) you should know that operating and migrating such a services is a big challenge?

i'm not even sure what we're debating: twitter is incurring a lot of hosting charges, and they're trying to mitigate that...

real shit

ppl like to shit on twitter and the link (reasonably so), but it's a legitimate challenge to run it and do so profitably, if they're having troubles with their server costs, only thing i could actually fault them with is making a platform that takes like 1mb of bandwidth to serve like 1/3 kb worth of text (also allowing pictures and videos)

while twitter as a concept is a pretty simple platform, scaling, load balancing, etc a service with hundreds of millions of users is pretty complicated

i don't really understand how you can be so confident while knowing nothing or very little about running such an insanely complicated platform as twitter

do you have access to their financial reports? bc i'm not sure how one can make claims like that otherwise 🤷‍♀️

like, i kinda see it wrt to the whole blue checkmark fiasco, but the issue with profitability goes much deeper than that, both in terms of time (during which this problem existed) and design (how much is it embedded into twitter as an application)

💀💀

as much as i hate elon musk tho, it is a sort of reasonable strategy in case you’re trying to prevent incurring further hosting charges while you’re migrating 🤷‍♀️

not sure why he can’t just pay the hosting bill but whatever, that’s secondary i guess

idk about you but i’ve no idea about how twitter is run, there’s plenty of reasons they would be unable or prefer not to do that 🤷‍♀️
