Wasn’t supposed to be condescending, apologies that I came across like that. I just more meant you aren’t representative of who a FOSS potential killer app needs to reach. I agree, I don’t want cloud, AI, subscriptions. But I do want a tool palette and interaction experience that doesn’t require looking at the docs to use.

From a UX perspective federation has been absolutely bungled. Twitters greatest trick was to cause an exodus before the alternatives had reached maturity, though I imagine the demand has pushed them further than they would be otherwise.

IMO BlueSky is by far the best Twitter replacement, insofar as you can just use it like Twitter but it is built on an open protocol, allowing you to run your own server if you wish but with zero interoperability friction or worrying about servers on the actual client. Also it has already started basic bridging between threads and mastadon, its custom feeds in place of algorithms is genius and stackable moderation is the most compelling solution I’ve seen to the core complaints and concerns over modern social media.

And it’s independent, transparent and run by intelligent, passionate people. And, very importantly, Jack Dorsey has nothing to do with it!

which is great for you, but not for anyone who has even briefly used more mainstream options

The simple solution is to change it to a BSD license and call it BLIMP

yeah this is such a thing. I don’t want to replay a 40-80 hour game to access 15 hours of new content interwoven or not even that just new features on the way. I feel CyberPunk getting abandoned is actually just a weird new-speak for it being ACTUALLY finished

It’s funnier than 95% of film or TV comedies. The writers are amazing.

“Mr. Evrart is helping me find my gun” is the funniest interaction in any video game I have ever played by an order of magnitude

As soon as we conceded “milk” for plant milks we were setting off on a long path of bullshit. If something is designed as an alternative to something it should be able to explain it’s designed purpose.

I was impressed that in their launch trailer they have graphical glitches

How does this work with a federation model. Is it possible that there can be lots of different clients with different UX’es?
