Wake me up when they finally bring up the UI to modern standards

Honestly if anyone gives them their money at this point. That’s on them.

Its the absolute lack of algorithm. No, really. I know Mastodon toots it as a feature, but without an algorithm to keep people scrolling most people just close the app and do something else. People who don’t understand instances would just go to mastodon.social anyway, but since no mastodon instance is actively trying to keep its users engaged 24/7, people naturally realize they have better things to do than to use social media all say.

Which is better for humanity, but bad for retention.

Stalinism is when thing bad.

Wait I haven’t been keeping up since the ui refresh. What are they doing

One day we’ll get VLC 4.

The only issue for Firefox’s translator currently is the time it takes to load at first, or the fact you have to download each model first. Its not some monumental task, but it does have more friction than Google’s “automatically send the site you are browsing to our server”

This is actually one of the few cases where it makes sense. Its for alt-text for people who browse with TTS

No

Isn’t it cause its the handle of the main dev?

Don’t forget Plants vs Zombies 2. Which despite some micro transactions, definitely held up in its early days. Rather, I’d say it got do either dirty from balancing issues rather than greed.

Any relation to the WordPress competitor Ghost or are there two blog platforms called Ghost

Does it have the option of using TPM to unlock a LUKS2 encrypted partition like the previous betas? Or was that dropped?

And also the maintainers being too trusting. They openly discussed pirate ROMs in the server and such.

It really has been almost 20 years huh

It would be pretty useless as it is. Even for them. Federation only really mattered for a few people (us), most of their userbase doesn’t care or know so its not like it was meant to be a hook to lead them in.

Because it isn’t finished

Money

I don’t just mean socially speaking. But for contacting services and stuff. My car insurance company only accepts reports through Whatsapp or through calling a guy to come look at your face for a fee.

Most of the world doesn’t use SMS, they use WhatsApp. Plus, SMS is even worse than WhatsApp for privacy and security. And stopping using WhatsApp in most of the world is like not using email, so no “I don’t have WhatsApp, you can only contact me through signal” is possible.
