Yeah, let's embed a MS Word window in the interface instead of the text box, for a full wysiwyg user friendly experience. It could check the user's environment and log in to Office365 using their credentials, thus having access to their templates and onedrive too.

Hey, hey, what about... Teams integration? That would be super user friendly. We could read, comment and post directly from our cosy familiar Microsoft friendliness, never ever needing to know, worry or care about any underlying technology.

But wait! I clearly remember having to know, worry and care about how to use wysiwyg editors. Can't we instead go back to using raw latex tags and vi as the post/comment interface?

Mold, bacteria and grass?

Quite vague. Nonhuman biologics can be anything. Grass, bacteria, mold, cats...

Noneartly biologics would be more interesting.

I started by joining only one instance (vlemmy.net). When it went down, I realized I needed more, so I joined 3.

As for the communities, I subscribed to whichever clone had more traffic, among the ones I'm interested in.

I comment and post from whatever instance I'm logged on, as sometimes - especially in the recent weeks - one or two are temporarily down.

What about stupid malice, or maliciously stupid? :-)

Does a bully think being a bully hurts their image?

As an extreme narcissist, he can't fathom the idea that anything he does can hurt his image. Surrounded by devoted minions, everything he does boosts his ego. He's mauling Twitter, and thinks this projects a powerful image of himself.

I never liked this guy, I think he's an narcissistic spoiled brat, but even then I can't believe he could possibly be so stupid to think that things like throwing away the Twitter brand for "X" make sense.

Well, super bad breath is not your ordinary bad breath. It would possibly melt your lungs faster than the fire. Bacteria that can thrive in superman's body is not to be messed with.

Since he started his act about buying Twitter I saw that as a personal vendetta to harm it - the ultimate tantrum for being mocked at there and not being under his control. He said he'd buy then backed off just to hurt Twitter's value, but then when he was forced to buy it for the first offer value, he got even more butthurt.

It's pretty clear that everything he's done since is to get revenge and destroy it. It's insane that some people keep praising his decisions towards Twitter as anything but ridiculous.

He's the rich brat who doesn't get brown nosed by the waiter in front of his date, then proceed to buy the restaurant just to fire the guy.

Good point, I'll be out of my arm's reach too.

So maybe: "everyone but me has the option of not thinking like me", or "the option of not being where I am".

Geez, so a machine learning platform can now get a job as a product manager?

If they hired a human product manager, would the salary be the same?

What is it going to do with the money?

Everyone but me has the option of being out of my arm's reach.

What the flux do you need a pen for? Now, let me show you these unique single pixel NFTs...

Some social media focus on people, some on subjects.

One type tends to create "influencers" and circle jerking opinion bubbles, the other forces you to interact with different opinions around subjects you like.

I hope Lemmy stays on the second type.

Besides, with the volatility of instances, and user logins not being universal across instances, Lemmy also makes it harder to do that, and as a bonus devalues karma hoarding.
