That is more down to poor marketing. Here on Lemmy or reddit there are big open source communities where you can extol the values of it.

I never went with a software project from random scrolling. It has no value to me if it doesn’t meet a need I have right now.
No contributor is going to be good that doesn’t use it.
Why would it be? Software is good based on it’s use and recommendations from real folk, not *s. Many project not on github
Minecraft is one of the biggest games on the planet. Very popular with the young. Not what many would consider beautiful.
That is quite a mixed bag response. Leaves me between they won’t do nothing, and they might do something.
I mean, they can easily flood the ratings and sure All is just Threads content, then you’re not getting involved in Lemmy/Mastodon content, you’re just talking and engaging on content sustaining Threads and your comments are probably helping engagement next to adverts displayed to users.
It isn’t a good proposition, at all.
Meta doesn’t do anything that doesn’t benefit their bottom line, especially for their ad business.
I mean, the last point is weird. They’d never say that, and do not care about the illusion of being open.
Point 1 is true.
Point 2, what makes you think federation will make millions of users want to move away, or even know folk are on another service. They’ll probably censor the word lemmy and every lemmy address to avoid folk advertising away. The fediverse will just be filled with nonsense data and they’ll pull the stuff that helps their platforms and keeps people hooked on the teet. Without that data, they may not be at critical mass to sustain Threads and it might eventually die. With that and Twitter going to pot, avoiding federation actually helps Mastodon as it provides a distinguishable separate entity that has reached critical mass and has significant good will with the user base that motivates them to keep sharing content.
world won’t defederate from the right without a long drawn out process (see Exploding Heads for example). However, if someone posts “Karl Marx is great” or “Communism makes sense” or “capitalism is bad”, you’ll probably see a defederation before the enter key is hit. (Hexbear).
lemm.ee or lemmy.ml are where it’s at. I don’t think it’s great for power or userbase to be focussed on one instance. lemm.ee has 0.19 and world doesn’t despite their junior and senior infrastructure folk from their full 7 week interview process for volunteer positions.
I think most here have come here to avoid big tech companies. Reddit has become bad and beyond the pale. Facebook, and Meta companies are not good for privacy, and many wouldn’t like to promote them or have their content building those platforms up. Eventually, you become the thing you hate.
I’m not. :)
Hi. No one is creating content on Threads, can we steal your content, please?
It’s running on Lemmy.ml. I guess they’re trying to be cautious, test thoroughly and iron out issues. My experience has been positive so far, and I do seem to be seeing more content from small communities which is great.
But if they catch you sweating, you’re busted. Isn’t it public record that the guy cannot sweat?
Source? Do the UK even have a Sears Catalogue?
Company? It’s the UK communications regulator, Ofcom.
They found that many on low incomes don’t have photocard ID when they rolled out voter ID despite opposition.
Considering no one seems capable of withholding data from motivated hackers, this could be quite horrific.
Believe internet strangers? I had it on my laptop and Pinephone. After breaking twice on both, I went for Kubuntu then OpenSuse for desktop and PostmarketOS on the Pinephone.
You may be cheerleading for Manjaro but don’t discount experience of people that went there, suffered and want others to not suffer. If you really need easy to use Arch, EndeavourOS is far superior.
I’m on OpenSuse and it’s great. If you’re tempted by Arch, go straight up Arch. Manjaro doesn’t give any pluses here, only negatives.
I’ve had it break many times during update. Don’t get me wrong, I liked it at first, but if you want a system that works after update, you’re probably better checking elsewhere. Linux Mint, and Kubuntu are far better simplicity wise. Open Suse or Arch if you want rolling updates.
Yes. You corrected a dyslexic. Well done.
