There he is
They must prevent this meta takeover at any cost.
Btw we missed you, welcome back. đ€
Son dĂ©sir de monopole est plus inquiĂ©tant, malheureusement il a des adeptes des apps telles whatsapps et Instagram tellement nombrilistes centrĂ©s sur eux ...Rien que Facebook suffisait Ă elle Ă faire sortir puis exacerber certaines pathologies d'ordre psychique , pourtant ce ne fut l'objet de sa crĂ©ation , mais notre sociĂ©tĂ© a bien voulu ce modĂšle qui dĂ©montre bien la face dantesque de certains individus ..le laissant vouloir rendre trop addicts certains individus, nous ne pouvons que nous en vouloir . Le fait qu'il ait eu WhatsApp puis Instagram sous son giron ne devait point se faire. Cependant ces outils y pu rapporter une certaine notoriĂ©tĂ© chez certaines couches de notre sociĂ©tĂ©, ça a dĂ» peser sur la balance..Avant qu'il n'y ait ce monopole c'est lĂ qu'il fallait agir je me rappelle de sa monnaie lorsque j'ai dĂ» tester ces outils afin juste de pouvoir les analyser...Le seul intĂ©rĂȘt selon fut WhatsApp qui ne lui appartenait Messenger permettait Ă une grande partie de la population mondiale de communiquer ensemble sans trop avoir dĂ©boursĂ© de l'argent. Personnellement je ne supporte pas Facebook pour les retentissements plus graves chez certains individus sans oublier son non respect flagrant des donnĂ©es utilisateurs . AprĂšs les gens sont libres de leurs choix mĂȘme si certains donnent leurs accords sur des conditions d'utilisations qui ne sont pas accessibles en termes de comprĂ©hension de droits pour nous . Carpe Diem
Agreed Zuck isn't trustworthy.
#nostr fixes this.
My relays cannot ban me from seeing others people content
Now that's a blog I haven't visited since the Mardown discussion
Same, for a long time Iâve thought that it was Aaron Schwarz blog that lingers on after his passing.
Thatâs a lesson that youâll be stamped in your face with what you spend time/attention.
Lol
march of mastodon?
Mastodon plateforme soit disant dĂ©centralisĂ©e ou pas ou Mastodon ? đ
Despite hating Meta, Iâm against censorship even if against persons/entities that I do not agree or despise.
If your enemies canât run a node, then the network hasnât evolved enough yet. đ
Facebook running a #bitcoin full-node or #nostr relay wonât lead to these issues because users can switch connections if Facebook acts uncooperatively.
Function without the monopolistic control/leverage of corporations is our the goal.
the old âits only censorship if its against usâ pickle
Something build that can be captured is being captured well this is truely shocking
They got nothing on us.
If I understand it right, it matters less whether a non critical mass of users want to limit network access, and more if the network properties allow that.
Surprised John and Ben Thompson still havenât picked up on #nostr at all yet.
Repeating what I said on twitter cuz I thought it was clever đ - âWhy did Facebook change its name to Meta anyways? Itâs like an episode of HBOâs âHis Dark Materialsâ where Metatron turns out to be a total assholeâ
the self righteousness of mob rejection is a popular substitution for a life of meaning and actual belonging in todays pop culture.
When individuals arrogate the authority to determine what is right and wrong, firmly entrenched in their unwavering conviction of absolute righteousness and moral absolutism, it frequently paves the way for extremism and totalitarianism.
I missed you, Jack đ€đ«
I will try to learn what is fediverse..
I never saw the point of masto as being open. The draw of masto is to help users block corporate surveillance and corporate/user abuses, utilizing more active moderation from people with similar values and interests. Itâs a governance model. Facebook has done tremendous damage to peopleâs mental states, there is zero reason to think they wouldnât continue on masto and every reason to preemptively block them. Now, if youâre on masto and want all content from everywhere, you can spin up a single user instance without any blocks (time and money). So technically itâs possible, just not as easy as joining a moderated instance.
Maybe it's not "mob mentality" maybe it's about preventing monopolization of server ownership. Anyone can spin up a node and anyone can block it. Sounds like open sourced community decision making to me .
Maybe it is a design problem.
Servers shouldn't decide what content you can access.
Migrating on mastodon is messy because you cannot keep your handle.
The irony. Meta implemented the linked data stack WAY before mastodon. And activitypub still havent implemented the spec correctly
Itâs hard to imagine meta would share the same ideals as the existing fedi community, so this is not an unexpected reaction. Ideally the protocol and product would be resilient enough that it doesnât matter.
Great read. I love the use of the term âpre-crimeâ. We got to support any large company when theyâre doing the right thing. The snobbery in the âfediâ-verse will be itâs own demise.
It's a sign that #nostr might be winning.
