It’s hard for me to imagine how this benefits a for-profit company, and probably requires significant resource dedication so it’s not surprising.

And that’s exactly the sort of thing the fediverse is intended to avoid.
It’s not. Your passport account would be portable, just like any other account. I really don’t see what the problem is.
This isn’t centralization, it’s duplication.

Ulrich@feddit.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•A list with 1051 verified accounts from media organizations in the Fediverse 👇🏼English0·12 days agoI muted the entire Flipboard instance. They were just annoying. If I need any of those, I use RSS.
AP is supposed to be interactive but I’m pretty sure none of them are looking at those. And the ones that are already have accounts so these are just redundant anyway.
Ulrich@feddit.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Best place for a community alternative to Facebook group?English0·22 days agoOnly “absurd” in the context of a user. Not really in the context of a business with 3B MAU who will not leave no matter what.

The entirety of the internet disagrees.
Ulrich@feddit.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Best place for a community alternative to Facebook group?English0·22 days agoI know that shitty AI bot all too well. Unfortunately I’ve tried and failed to get people to leave as well. I have a community of ~20k users. Sad reality is that not only does no one care but they will actively attack you for even suggesting such a thing.
Facebook knows what they’re doing. The only way to close the group is to remove each and every member, one by one, and even if you actually wanted to spend the time actually doing that (I have), they will “detect automated activity” and lock your account.
I created my own private Lemmy community. Even set up Photon as a frontend. Not 1 single user joined.
So yeah, we’re so fucked.
Ulrich@feddit.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Mastodon updates terms of service to ban AI model training on user dataEnglish0·22 days agoIt potentially gives them grounds for a lawsuit. Probably not but potentially. There’s no reason not to explicitly deny permission. They have everything to gain and nothing to lose.

Ulrich@feddit.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feedsEnglish0·23 days ago- Bit charitable to say “no one uses it” when they have >300M MAU
- Wasn’t talking about Threads, I was talking about Meta.
Ulrich@feddit.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Threads is adding fediverse content to your social feedsEnglish0·23 days agoThey’ve been doing it for quite a while. Very slowly. The problem is it’s currently unidirectional, and opt-in. I imagine its the same reason Apple has adopted RCS (also opt-in): legal pressure.
If they just ignore it completely, legislators might completely fuck them like they did Apple with alternative payments. But if they kinda half-ass it then they can point to it and say “SEE, WE HAVE INTEROP! NO MONOPOLY!”
You can log into any Lemmy instance from any Photon instance.
I’m not a big fan of most RSS readers. And def not for Reddit content.
I replaced RIF with Stealth. It’s actually a really excellent read-only client that you can subscribe to subs and view content without contributing anything to Reddit.
RIF arguably the best Reddit mobile app.
Ulrich@feddit.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•If you can afford it, PeerTube is having a fundraiser for its mobile appEnglish0·27 days agoI don’t see any of that as useful, personally, other than changing the resolution. I sure as hell would not want to manage my video from the app LOL. But it’s great that they’re adding that.
I don’t understand anything you just said.
