We’re in a generation of complacency. Nobody cares and our to busy consuming to care.

He should start charging the users to make up for the loss ;) (praying and hoping this damn site dies soon)

I despise bluesky but that too

meh, I’d say a mix of lack of ability to advertise efficiently on services like mastodon and lemmy and the fact that Lemmy and Mastodon are still in their “infancy” (I can’t say that about the latter since its pretty old in comparison to lemmy). Also, lack of marketing power compared to something like meta with billions of dollars of resources and all the motivation to try to get people to move away from Twitter and onto their services. This is new tech so I’d rather just stick to being niche for now and enjoy the experience. Its not going to last long and maybe soon by the next year we’re going to see alot progression.

or mastodon/threads mainly

Yes, embrace, extend and extinguish my breast milk drinking.

I would say Apple isn’t as severe as something like Meta or “X” but the amount of influence apple has over the industry is insane. There’s a reason why so many laptops are losing ports “because the MacBook has it” or why smartphones are stagnating and when they “innovate” they’re just removing more features like the SD card reader all simply because “Apple did it”. Hell, Windows has been trying to be like Mac OS for years from its flat minimal design to its oversimplification of its design to trying to make their own “eco system”. Apple’s influence can even extend beyond tech with their flat minimalist, corporate design being applied to every industry and building and design ever to be conceived in 2023. Everyone is trying to be Apple from Tech companies to fast food joints. Truly if we measure their influence and the power they carry moving entire industries to do various things. They are one of the most powerful company in silicon valley. Everything we hate about modern tech and how restrictive it is can be sourced all the way back to Apple.

Both designs really need to make a comeback as an option

Based weezer :)

Why are you even getting downvoted when someone else said the exact same thing?

Damn that was a lucky find!!!

I love collecting CDs especially from thrift stores. The hunt for some rare or obscure albums or even some of my favorites is always thrilling.

Hoping that works out!

Knowledge is power.

Don’t go to !memes. Thats all really. Block the community because thats where 99% of the circlejerk comes from (and app shaming somehow??)

Well hope it was still really good!

Yes, since you’re using Kbin.social, you’re able to see me and everyone else here!

It sounds like what you meant to ask was more about interoperability between different platforms

You hit it spot on. Exactly what I mean. I wish there was more and during my first time in lemmy back at july I’ve seen a few mastodon accounts being able to communicate here however we weren’t able to directly influence mastodon or pixelfed.

News especially. I find Mastodon alot more positive than here sometimes. Not to say everyone is mean or anything of course. I just find it more cozy
