I think I’m slowly starting to understand the use cases of these small form factor computers. Pretty much Swiss Army knives in computer form.

Makes sense that people are trying to sell them commercially now, even if they are bit experimental and don’t have a defined use case as of yet.

Plus it just looks cool.

Going to play devil's advocate here.

Bluesky is just...better than any Fediverse microblogging platform. In terms of UI, discoverability, and keeping a balance of users in the community.

Mastodon sucks for regular people. And none of the other better platforms like Firefish ever gain enough steam to beat Mastodon because of existing issues in the structure of the Fediverse and ActivityPub (this also includes Mastodon itself to an extent).

I'm shocked people are actually against Mastodon adding a common feature. Seems like one of the gripes with it for ages has been the lack of features and polish (I personally stopped using Mastodon in part because of this)

Glad they are going ahead with it...it doesn't really hurt anything and isn't any different than just screenshotting posts.

Surprised the NBA didn't veto this one like they did with CP3 and the Lakers

Cool emulation machine and design, even if it isn't the most practical thing ever.

Jiraiya from Naruto Shippuden. Felt like my own family member passed when they killed him off.

Edit: Also, Sergeant Johnson in Halo 3.

ok this is the type of FOSS software I live for

It's just like Peertube. Cool concept in theory, but breaks down once you consider the less fun parts of it (storage volume).

Gonna be really hard to figure out how to make solid Fedi alternatives to image/video-based social media.

Nothing to contribute honestly, I just want to say that this is the funniest post i've seen on lemmy

• Lo-fi hip hop instrumentals. Think Nujabes and related producers or MF DOOM and Madlib beats.
• Jungle/atmopheric DNB. NOT breakcore because I know electronic fans are rabid about genres and categories.
• High paced rap and rock/metal. Counter-intuitive for studying but great for physical exercise. This is mostly newer style rap.

Newgrounds would be awesome in the Fediverse tbh, would bring so much content (beyond politics and news).

Image hosting seems to be super problematic with activity pub, especially with something pf Newgrounds' size. I'm super invested in this, can't wait to see where it'll go.

Yeah I've pretty much accepted that kbin.social is just gone at this point. I also owned a community there (/m/ai). I didn't have any spammers appear, but it eventually just died since spam ruined the rest of the instance.

The signs were already there months in advance, but most of us stayed on the instance in hopes that the dev would eventually take up one of the offers to help maintain the instance. Was fun while it lasted, and was the best alternative to Reddit for sure as a software. I don't even know how Ernest kept up with development during the initial Reddit exodus lol.

Honestly, I'm not impressed with Lemmy so far and I don't really vibe with mbin for personal reasons even though the software is great.

This whole kbin story has just pointed out a lot of flaws in the Fediverse as a whole for me. I still like the idea, but the execution needs improvement.
