Do you want this social media to be for your family to use only with family members or for them to use with family and beyond?

Revolt could be good as a local family group chat if you like the discord style. You’ve probably already tried it but Pixelfed/mastodon/misskey sound like the easiest to get family on board with and seem like they would be good family social media platforms IMO.

Without Linux users advocating for Linux it would never reach the average consumer. We don’t have a marketing department we have to grassroots that shit.

Nah I’m not gonna educate myself. I’m getting mad on behalf of the warlord weather he wants me to or not.

WTF let the warlord use what he brought and paid for. Stop eula roofing him and let him Cook.

I wouldn’t call that attack “easy”. If someone wants to go through that much effort to kill me they can save themselves the work and stab me outside pizzahut on Saturday night

I know but I expected there to be more cool apps and less shit ones. I’m disappointed by what mobiles have become.

Mobile apps. They have so much money and users and it still feels like there isn’t as many cool mobile apps as there are cool computer program.

Mobile apps often feel like a web browser with the URL bar.

This is posted every week with different numbers. I don’t care if data centers use a lot of electricity. They run very efficiently and are a necessity for our modern lives. You have no idea what is being run inside those data centers ai is so much more than chatgpt.

No ai can’t because no one believes a word they say. There are so many guardrails put in place that speaking to ai chatbots feels like talking to corporate HR

I don’t care if 99% of users are on once instance as long as people have the option to create their own instances and build on tech software and content created by the community.

We are going back to the days of TV where half the time was spent watching ads!

Pretty cool graph. It was funny to see the two lemmy.World porn communities in a see of lemmynsfw. I was completely unaware lemmy.World hosted porn.

What is it? I didn’t really understand what they do from reading it.

Awesome read, I’m switching to NT 3.1

At the moment federation between platforms is not useful. The only advantage is federation between Instances. I’ve used my sister at a test for what the average woman would think about it.

Aspects she thinks is cool are that it’s owned by people and designed for people, that its left leaning and inclusive.

Aspects she doesn’t care about are privacy, lack of ads, federation between instances, federation between platforms.

Aspects she doesn’t like are her friends aren’t there, none of the accounts she like are there, no recommendation algorithm. She also hates the name fediverse.

I think that we need to stop being boomers clutching our chronological feed and word of mouth discovery and embrace algorithms. That’s not to say we can have chronological feeds it’s just that we should include and option and serve some form of content recommendations.

I also think threads will be a major player in drawing people in. Its easier to convince people who use Instagram to switch from Twitter to threads than Twitter to Mastodon. Once they’re on threads they can start being a part of the fediverse and then eventually they might decide to try out one of the instances.

Those came out really nice

Bazzite to be a good time for me and they boys.

Every bazzite gamer has to crack this joke once in their life.

Nobara and its not the best way of using the internet.

Linux user is shown grass and immediately points to it and says look it’s linux

…and it’s ruined… Thanks internet
