@CarlCravens @gamehawk Being born before 1964, I remember when some people in my generation thought we would fix all the previous generations' messes. By the time the tail end graduated high school, I think that had pretty much evaporated.
(Side note: Not since at least World War I has there been a 16-25 year slice where people are alike enough that the ssme label describes the groups as a whole. Generationalism is as false as other isms.) -

@whistlewright 1: No apology needed. If you're busy eorking, you're busy working.
2: These mobile clients need something better than a cryptic little icon in the middle of a row of icons to indicate post privacy settings. Nearly 100% of my initial replies go out with an undesired setting. #tusky #fedilab -

@moonman I never understood why it was a big deal. If the real #NSA was interested, we'd never have any clue they were monitoring. Therefore, other than an overachieving marketing intern, no one in NSA would create that account. -

@whistlewright Axe, saw, sword, spear, bow & arrow, pick, shovel, plow, gun. You know, the things that kept us from going extinct before engines and electricity. -

Court rules that warrantless searches of phones and laptops violates the 4th amendment.
Not that anyone with a high school education didn’t already know these searches were illegal. (Probably junior high / middle school, too!) -

@abnazhor In my opinion, you should try to roost elsewhere if you can. The worst thing for a federated network is when a single instance or very small number of instances becomes the center of gravity for the whole network. CC: @kai -

@mewmew @er1n If your goal is to be hidden from search engines you'll have things like valuable technical discussions lost forever.
Yes you deserve the right to be forgotten.
Yes you deserve to be anonymous if you want to be.
Yes you deserve ownership and control over your data as much as is technically feasible. (e.g., once it leaves your machine... all bets are off, sorry)
If what you think you need is to be hidden, you're not a social network and you're not helping us create a solution to end the digital tyranny the other 7 billion of us face on a daily basis.
I want AP to liberate 7 billion people from algorithmic manipulation and corporate-sponsored censorship.
I want AP to bring back what communicating with friends was like in the 90s and early 00s.
It's going to take money, time, blood, sweat, and tears.
Yes, money. I know people get very distracted by the fact that there's money flowing into ActivityPub's development. This is a requirement if we're going to get this off the ground. I can't think of a single widespread protocol we consider foundational to our daily lives that didn't have money behind it.
The internet itself (TCP/IP) was not birthed by some free software zealots. It was billions of dollars of military research brought to the public. Some people might even hate the military that did it!
The Web was also not birthed by free software zealots. It was done at CERN. On a NeXT machine. Some people might even hate the countries funding CERN, or Steve Jobs/Apple.
This lead to Mosaic and then Netscape.
"Netscape was the first company to attempt to capitalize on the nascent World Wide Web."
Mozilla is now the darling of the internet, but it was born out of capitalism. I'm sure the thought of this is offensive to some people. Most don't even recognize the fact.
The point is, we need a good protocol with a healthy standards body of members participating from MANY projects because diversity is strength and we cannot have a single member trying to throw their weight around and control how the protocol is developed. And if we don't care about doing security right we will fail.
I don't know how to bring everyone together to solve this, but I know damn well that Mastodon's goals are directly at odds with the rest of us right now. I hope they come around though because we'll be stronger together. -

@lain But then you'd run into the same problem as pleroma.site and pixelfed.social . Once it gets a substantial userbase, people will assume it is a flagship. @dwaltiz -

@whistlewright LOL. Do I detect a faint aroma of wine coming from western Texas?
