They share the same dick too.
The one on the left has 2 heads.
Dear Lord,
Please save us all from this fucking shit.
Amen.
Better a bed under you dad
Than a Redbull over your dad.
Finding and innovating new ways to fuck people with ads.
Of course, I use uBlock Origin.
But sometimes, I’m on a fresh install or on a friend’s computer and I forget that I don’t have an ad blocker.
When I see an ad on the internet, I purposefully look away to not look at it.
It is deeply ingrained in my brain to never let ads win.
I don’t know how my parents are doing it with cable TV.
Interesting finale.
I’d applause.
I recieved today an email from Affinity saying that their whole suite of softwares is 50% off.
I’m assuming more people will be migrating to either Affinity or FOSS.
I currently use FOSS but I also really love Affinity. Especially since it’s a perpetual/lifetime license.
My comment was intended to be joke lol
Pixelfed already does support the image import from Instagram.
Mastodon doesn’t seem to support any import from Twitter/X.
I’m assuming account migration from the main social media platforms to be an important feature.
But I don’t think supporting ALL social media is realistic unless they all follow the same norms. Which I really doubt.
Libre/anti-libre is one of the problem to solve.
Cara seems to be working for them and for now.
For how long? I don’t know.
Another problem is related to the instance creation, management and promotion.
From my understanding, only tech people can do that, there aren’t many companies providing those services and it’s not something average users are interested in.
Yes and no, you and me both value software freedom so we both understand that.
Education is obviously part of the process.
But I think most people don’t really care if libre or not. Libre or anti-libre is mostly tech jargon for non-tech people.
They just want to be part of their own communities and be where the party is.
People chose Cara because they identify with the art aspect of this social network. They don’t care if it’s anti-libre. They probably don’t even know what it means.
The purpose of a federated instance like Pixelfed is to be a blank state. You can do anything with it. Any niche. Art in this case.
The issue here is to bring these people to Pixelfed and make them feel at home within their niche.
These people should create an instance on Pixelfed, a libre alternative to Instagram.
Recently switch to NextCloud.
So far so far.
