Yea, we wouldn’t want anyone doing anything illegal with crypto… 🙄

I kinda feel like Microsoft already knows about the recognized pattern of every other OS release being considered a success. That being said, I’d bet $1 they’re already spending more in the development of Windows 12 v 11.

Lmao… who uses Dropbox in 2024?

Apologies… it didn’t actually used to be Vine, that was more just sarcasm about how TikTok was actually just a Vine ripoff but somehow more successful.

Anyone remember when TikTok was Vine? Just use Vine.

2 years is my guess.

Federating with an entity that is publicly traded and has shareholders to answer to surely has a goal of endless profit growth - that’s the nature of capitalism. The current spirit of the fediverse is one not driven by profits. What we have now will very likely change into something that doesn’t resemble our current experience once it’s engulfed by Meta.

You have evidence that I’m wrong, correct?

LMAO… “bribes”… no, I have no evidence of “bribes.” I don’t have any evidence of a financial incentive either, as very clearly evident by my phrasing starting with “I bet…” I’m simply relying on 40 years of not having my head completely up my own ass to make some inferences about things, and if I’m wrong, then I’m wrong. I think you’re being intentionally obtuse. None of this really is impactful, but you sure seem to have an agenda.

I wouldn’t call that a good reason to team up with Meta, but I would call it a plausible. Everyone does not want to federate with the largest social media company in the world, I can promise you that. If you like federation, you’d probably like it to not be engulfed by megacorps (unless you stand to profit from it).

I think I’ve logged in for a collective 15 minutes. I deleted it about 45 minutes ago.

Are you truly incapable of acknowledging that large bags of money motivate people to do unpopular things sometimes?

I really don’t care about Mastadon as I haven’t used it much, but I couldn’t really think of a good reason for federating with Meta.

Yea I was really confused to read that. I’m on Kbin / Lemmy significantly more than I log in to Mastadon (I think I’ve opened that app 5 times in the past year), so now I guess I’ll just delete Mastadon.

I bet he’s getting a big bag of money.

“Please sir, could I have some more?” - windows user

“Huh, what?” - Linux user

That means the issue is the culture, not photoshop.

Because the folks doing the work aren’t the folks paying the bills. You’ve gotta invade some country and exploit the shit out of them for several years if you expect to have enough money to have a voice!

Only if people continue to give money to Adobe.

That’s the reason I want a mega thread. I want to be able to scroll past anything Elon. Putting it in one spot is ideal.
