I asked Claude and it said look into The Ash Tree Man by Daniel Harms

RIP. Was on firefish a few months but saw the writing on the wall back then and jumped ship. In retrospect, probably the 3rd or 4th federated product I've been a user of that flamed out. WATTBA

So would you prefer the capital tax rate is lower or that CNN didn't report it?

As someone voting for Dems, I'm still confused why progressive policies are becoming more moderate

My personal opinion is that it was:

  • Easier signup
  • A wider variety of opinions... Fediverse imo is known for tankies and progressives. I'm a progressive so I'm OK w/ the latter, but it can be an echo chamber at times.
  • Built-in audiences (Threads especially but also Jack founding a spinoff helps)
  • Similar to Linux, one of the benefits to open-source is plenty of forks and standards. This leads to a more fractured landscape at times and so it's rockier than the alternatives

  • Doesn't have millions to market like the alternatives.
  • More technical requirement (historically anyways)
  • Much less likely to be the default on hardware (which is what most ppl stick to)

Regardless of how you feel about subscriptions, it's a step in making the fediverse a more viable option for that that create content for a living.

Made the switch as well thanks to the modern key bindings

Prior to switching (upgrading?) to Wayland, Debian KDE crashed under X11 regularly when waking from hibernation and the taskbar would disappear. Restarting the plasma shell made it operable again, so I created an alias and regularly rebooted the DE shell 2-3x a day:

alias damnTaskbar='killall plasmashell ; kstart plasmashell &'

Indirectly, but the .bash_aliases file that has all my terminal shortcuts

Et tu, neo-facists?

i agree. Not as good as the OG podcast but it has found it's form over the last few months

 

I follow two already using FreshRSS and I'm looking for more

 

They've started inserting a subtle ad as the first result instead of the actual app you're searching for.

This has to have been a change over the last month or two I feel like?

I'm having to reprogram myself to view the first result as irrelevant. Really makes me want to increase the F-Droid alternatives that I use.
