Why no one talks about other victims of car accidents and their is about 6k per month on average in US alone. But Uber and Tesla are on headlines when someone dies and there is like what 3-4 victims in total after all those years? It is not

Of course but imo it's not good strategy when you are dividing into hundreds of instances with 500+ users.

People still need to pay for it. FSF would also die of hunger if it were not for people donating them money they have to earn first... so nothing is free.

Yes, but so called "social media" isn't about installing anything to operate with. Twitter blow up the scene because it was super easy to start with and start sharing short sentences. In Mastadon you need to find a proper com

And who writes on Mastodon? Mostly devs or Trump? Maybe Obama? Ellen? No? So no one will use it, ever. I'm not against technology as it is great, but looking on this as a normal user it's not appealing to me. Mastodon is like old

Yea, they sell culture and give away free food. As you can see[0], most devs at FB are eating, traveling, eating, going to cafes or eating some more. ;-) [0] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWFDujYzvbI

So developers are building "social media" for developers with famous 30 minut install, make new instance or manage it by yourself kind of thing. Typical social media users will never get into fediverse as they still are using shor

Game limits, not wanting to share private account with some random folks used in games or for commercial purposes aka selling account later on and I can tell that this business is booming! :)

Great thing about Elon is that he believes in everything so much he is probably laughing reading those articles. I understand that myself, would lough too. There will be no future without 100% automation and for me this is the best bet you

Yea, that is still a huge number, but for advertisers that use FB as a platform is a huge waste of money and FB could easily abuse that as well.

This don't change my comment still many of them are fakes. I know people who have 5-6 accounts active at one time playing different games with 500+ friends on it. Many of those "friends" also are fakes, some even with the sam

Probably half of that are fake profiles, profiles made by people for commercial purposes or bots. If you make fake account and you will start wandering in the endless facebook steppes, you will notice that many of them are one post account

Kayako. No direct account deletion, they need to poke engineer to do it after many requests. They require your personal information and CC to use free plan. No direct downgrade button to free plan if on trial.

No matter what way of installing you choose they inform you via official website about pre-release version witch includes notice about sending automatic feedback. You don't need to prove your point in the most bizarre way and you can i

I'm not judging I wrote that everyone has it's own use case. My only point is don't use test version if you don't want to be tested or opt-out of it. ;)

Seriously they have to? Isn't this obvious enough? When downloading TEST RELEASE you willingly accept that it will collect anonymous data and send it to them. If you do not want to test something, because you're opposed to it, do

You are using Nightly "wrong" because of attachment to old extensions that will perish in June when all legacy stuff will be blocked. Nightly is only for testing out new features and it's not intended to be production ready b

Idea is great but this logo looks like evil douchebag kind of guy with this tagline "Not the bot you deserve, but the one you need" doesn't look great. You definitely need to work on your brand. :)

Because it is completely impractical. I used LS but it's a waste of time to check and block ads servers or malicious domains, which is why most garbage should be blocked from hosts or dnsmasq.
