dauerstaender,

I am all for valve in terms of games, even though I don’t like the buying but not owning things stuff I would always prefer Steam over anything else. They earned my trust, something no other non-human entity will ever get. This company just has it figured out.

dauerstaender,

Wenn der sich mal entzündet.

dauerstaender,

Genau. Dann hätten wir mächtig Probleme.

dauerstaender,

Besser als in Zustellung: gestern zwischen 11 und 12 und es kommt erst heute.

dauerstaender,

What the fuck is wrong with your time? ಠ▄ಠ

dauerstaender,

The Python REPL is fucking good.

dauerstaender,

Leider gerade ausverkauft, aber wir hätten da noch Managerboni im Angebot.

dauerstaender,

Was?

dauerstaender,

Ahhh, danke!

dauerstaender,

Warum müssen die Verlage unbedingt meinen Arsch durchs Internet Attacken? Reicht es denn nicht einfach Werbung zu zeigen… von mir aus gestaltet eure Seite so das ich länger bleibe und mehr lese anstatt mir den Mittelfinger zu zeigen jedes Mal wenn ich online auf einen Link zu einem euerer Artikel klicke.

dauerstaender,

Ehrenerklärung.

dauerstaender,

How to junge Leute vertreiben in einem einfachen Schritt.

dauerstaender,

It’s alright, come here (~￣³￣)~

dauerstaender,

Never release under anything else than AGPL

dauerstaender,

Seit dem ANC Kopfhörern bin ich nicht mehr ohne Zug gefahren, einfach super leise.

dauerstaender,

Cats > Kids

dauerstaender,

Du hast mich erwischt.

dauerstaender,

Monster.

dauerstaender,

Hoffnung nicht aufgeben und mal etwas riskieren, kann sich lohnen. Oder peinlich sein, tut aber nicht weh im Vergleich zur Glückseligkeit.

dauerstaender,

Kann auch ein guter Gesprächsstart sein

dauerstaender,

🫦

dauerstaender,

Für mich auch! Auch wenn manche den wegen seiner Popularität nicht so gern haben bleibt es vor ein paar anderen Ghiblis mein absoluter Favorit!

dauerstaender,

Ders Gut.

dauerstaender,

Was?

dauerstaender,

Nice.

Mastodon has the responsibility to promote diversity in the Fediverse

I love the Threadiverse. Compared to the microblogging Fediverse’s sea of random thoughts, Lemmy and kbin are so much easier to navigate with the options to sort posts by subscribed, from local instances or everything federated. You can also sort by individual community, and then there are the countless ways to order the posts and comments (which are stored neatly under the main post, by the way). That people can more easily find the right discussions and see where they can contribute also means that the discussions tend to be more focused and productive than elsewhere. Decentralisation also makes a lot of sense, since it is built around different communities. All that’s needed is users.

Things were going quite well for a while when Reddit killed third-party apps, prompting many to leave and find the Threadiverse. However, it is quite difficult to entertain a crowd that has grown accustomed to a constant bombardment of dopamine-inducing or interesting content by tens of millions of users, if you only have a couple hundred thousand people. This is causing some to leave, which of course increases this effect. The active users have more than halved since July, according to FediDB. The mood is also becoming more tense. Maybe the lack of engagement drives some to cause it through hostility, I’m not quite sure. Either way, the Threadiverse becoming a less enjoyable place to be, which is quite sad considering how promising it is.

But what is really frustrating is that we could easily have that userbase. The entire Fediverse has over ten million users, and many Mastodonians clearly want to engage in group-based discussion, looking at Guppe groups. The focused discussions should also be quite attractive. Technically we are federated, so why do Mastodonians interact so little with the Threadiverse? The main reason is that Mastodon simply doesn’t federate post content. I really can’t see why the platform that federates entire Wordpress blogs refuses to federate thread content just because it has a title, and instead just replaces the body with a link to the post. Very unhelpful.

The same goes with PeerTube. There are plenty of videos on there that I am quite sure a lot of Mastodonians would appreciate, yet both views and likes there stay consistently in the tens. Yes, Mastodon’s web interface has a local video player, but in most clients it is the same link shenanigans, may may partly explain the small amount of engagement. This is also quite sad, because Google’s YouTube is one of the worst social network monopolies out there, if not the worst.

And I know some might say that Mastodon is a microblogging platform and that it makes sense only to have microblogging content, but the problem is that Mastodon is the dominant platform on the Fediverse, its users making up close to 80% of all Fedizens. It has gone so far that several Friendica and Hubzilla users have been complaining about complaints from Mastodonians that their posts do not live up to Mastodon customs, and of course, that people frequently use “Mastodon” to refer to the entire Fediverse. This, of course, goes entirely against the idea of the Fediverse, that many diverse platforms live in harmony with and awareness of each other.

The very least that Mastodon could do is to support the content of other platforms. Then I’d wish that they’d improve discoverability, by for instance adding a videos tab in the explore section, improving federation of favourites since it is the dominant sorting mechanism on many other platforms, and making a clear distinction between people (@person) and groups (!group), but I know that that is quite much to ask.

P.S. @feditips , @FediFollows , I know that you are reluctant to promote Lemmy and its communities because of the ideology of its founders, but the fact is firstly that it’s open source and there aren't any individual people who control the entire project, and that the software itself is very apolitical. In fact, most Lemmy users both oppose and are on instances that have rules against such beliefs, so I highly encourage you to at least help raise awareness on the communities. Then, of course, there’s kbin, which isn’t associated with any extremism at all. As a bonus, it has much better integration with the microblogging Fediverse, but it is a lot smaller and younger, and still very much under development.

Anyways, that was a ramble. Thanks for hearing me out.

dauerstaender,

What has mastodon implemented wrong?

dauerstaender,

Das Spektrum der Medienkompetenz in Sachen Internet ist fließend. Nur wenige denken sie verstehen es und noch weniger verstehen es wirklich, aber niemand ist wirklich all wissend.

dauerstaender,

Die Bahn hat vier Todfeinde: Frühling, Sommer, Herbst und Winter.

dauerstaender,

Mach einfach den Kühlschrank zu!

dauerstaender,

u/spez is a hurensohn

dauerstaender,

Der soll versteigert nicht beschlagnahmte Beute sondern auch Eigentum anderer Behörden wenn diese es loswerden wollen.

dauerstaender,

Was hat es mit kacken im Ford Focus auf sich?

dauerstaender,

Rettungsschirm sagsts du? Paar Milliarden finden wir noch

dauerstaender,

You also don’t need any Sunglasses or ice cubes now, crazy right?

dauerstaender,

Did you know you can write your password on Lemmy and it automatically replaces it with *? See my password is ******** and Lemmy make it so you read it as ********. Awesome right? Go ahead try it for yourself!

dauerstaender,

It show ******* but when I copy paste it shows hunter2 to you

dauerstaender,

Sad but necessary. I like the fact that this doesn’t exclude IRC from matrix as anybody could setup a bridge. This is what make matrix special: it’s openness and decentralization from ground up.

dauerstaender,

Muss man schon stark dran ziehen das die Hinterräder blockieren.

dauerstaender,

Freut mich das ich helfen konnte.

dauerstaender,

Beim nächsten mal

dauerstaender,

Nicht wegen Gottschalk, sondern weil ich weder Gliederschmerzen hab noch inkontinent bin.

dauerstaender,

YOLO

dauerstaender,

Everybody knows Linux is primarily used and developed (?) by moms who play FarmVille in terminal.

dauerstaender,

Still waiting for cross distro support with flatpak

dauerstaender,

I can’t tell you how, because I don’t know the technical details either, but why shouldn’t it be? If given the right permissions it can access the same interfaces as any process.
