  • Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

    1. Embrace:

    They implement ActivityPub and connect to all the available servers. A load of new users will see the content here and all the communities here will be absolutely flooded with new content and users.

    2. Extend:

    ActivityPub will be extended. Many new features will be added, that don’t really match the standard, but they are mostly useful so some developers will try to add them to let’s say Lemmy. They won’t be blr to develop new features on their own and some stuff with threads will always be broken or half baked. Threads users will belittle the users here, some will maybe go there, cause it just works and is otherwise the same.
    New users at the same time will most likely go directly to threads cause it’s backed by a giant company, always works and has more features.

    3. Extinguish:

    They will cut the federation.
    Communities here will feel empty and most users will just leave. Only the hard core will stay and that won’t be sustainable. The fediverse becomes even less attractive for new users and will devolve into a niche community.









  • Yes, and the farming industry is getting its dick sucked all year long. Each year they get money for their shitty returns because it was unforseen and animal rights get ignored.

    A typical pig farm is controlled ever 30 years or so. Germany has like the most fucked up animal rights in the EU and exports their cheap meat (produces by exploited workers from other countries btw.) into the rest of the EU.

    It’s a disgusting system really. Fuck those “poor” farmers. Yes. Their life is shitty, but they should just stop exploiting the planet and do something good instead. Maybe or politicians and the industry would then learn something.




  • I am on the phone too, but loaded it onto my server. It’s currently running. We’ll see.

    Edit: So its legit? Wow…

  • Sorry, but this guide is all over the place.

    You mention Arch before other distros and never even explain what a distros is (e.g. ‘a flavor of Linux with a choice of preinstalled software’).

    Then you say that it’s a beginners and not an advanced tutorial, but mention advanced distros.

    Also your reasons for the beginner distros are not well written:

    1. Fedora mentions “rightful backlash against the company”
    2. Linux Mint “I haven’t used”
    3. Pop OS “shares some issues”

    Why take one of them? They all sound difficult or weird. (to a newby reader)

    Then the part about Ubuntu and Manjaro which is longer than the 3 distros you recommend. This has major “Linux fanboy bashing other Linux fanboys” vibes.

    The rest I really liked, maybe replace “this era” with “its era”.
