Nevertheless email stays the defacto standard for business communication and has stayed intercompatible with a wide range of clients, servers and plugins. So this graph could be better but is apparently not a big issue as long as companies and unis keep running their own servers, forcing big tech to stay with the standards.
Bro has been asleep for the past 10 years lmao
Things never change, companies never break promises, shareholders never hold power over decision, people can not be bought
Those would all have to be true in order for anyone to have a reason to put trust into Bluesky.
Dats a big S there buddy. U got a loicense for dat?
I had a vague feeling this was the case but i never saw any concrete articles/evidence. Hamas is just too useful for Israel, it needs to exist to allow Israel to conquer the area.
Meta auto created threads accounts for all instagram users iirc so they kinda forced thwir way into the market by pre inflating their numbers.
Have you tried 535 yet? I would do that before trying to experiment with other installation pathways.
lemmy is my first and only social account (unless you consider software forums or gitlab lol)
Matrix too but not using that in a social media way, only as a direct messenger.
Not without cracking it open to swap the battery.
It will ofcourse still be very filtered in regards to legal grey areas like piracy and porn i assume. But even then for everything else we really need a functioning search engine.
Thats an advantage so thin it is almost invisible. Its a centralized platform, it could be bought by Elon or shutdown for whatever reason at any second. Being this shortsighted about the future of global communications systems is not a great idea when Trump is about to take office.
Perhaps. Overall Bluesky is massive already tho. Twitter has something like 220 million users with Bluesky being around 14 million. Having 6% of the user count of Twitter is already beyond critical mass for the average user. People will be able to satisfy their microblogging itch on bluesky which means they wont go back. It has all the drama, porn and politics that twitter had.
No, and it doesnt federate even though they promised that a long time ago. Unless they do, they will inevitably also go to shit, there is no way around the enshittification pipeline. Just stick to mastodon and invest in a long term future.
For a slightly more detailed explanation: https://pluralistic.net/2024/11/02/ulysses-pact/#tie-yourself-to-a-federated-mast
This is additional new users not total users. Growing by 0.67% of the user count of the largest microblogging platform in the world in a week is absolutely massive.
Thats a good point tbh. Nice brain hack
Yeah they fucked around and found out. These are adult people, let them deal with the consequences of their actions.
Yeah for anything except some games, wine/lutris or a virtual machine will work wonders. Not having to reboot is much nicer. You can also consider booting windows off a fast usb stick or usb ssd.
Its an aosp feature i believe, but its disabled on many phones. Graphene and calyx have it. With calyx its default off, but you can set it between 1 and 72 hours. Very handy feature.
The matrix protocol is a good example to prove you wrong. It has been popularized in the past 5-6 years (i.e. this era of the internet) it has well over 100 million users and growing, is being used in hundreds of universities and wont stop growing, is being used by government bodies all over the world and has unified most of the software dev landscape into one protocol. Its hard fucking work and you have to start with exactly those groups which are easier to convince and then you can move on to the average consumer. Thats how email did it and thats how matrix will do it.
