Wow, organic maps is really nice, seems like a much cleaner user interface than OsmAnd, whereas OsmAnd has more options.
Huh, works fine for me for nearly a year now. The only thing I still use google calendar for are some shared calendars.
After proton adds Standard Notes. I’m hoping google maps will be the last product I’m tied to.
Yeah, assuming the best intentions from everyone, you would still expect some adjustments would be necessary to any new policy as they see the affect of the policy.
Really good distinctions about Lemmy vs Mastedon.
To counter the ‘rounding error’ argument, I would argue that Meta is making the decision to federate because it makes business sense. Either they see that Mastedon is valuable today, or they see that it might become valuable in that future. Either way they are acting now to move that value to their company.
Interesting, I didn’t think of this. I assume anyone does whatever data mining they want on Fediveres content, but maybe it won’t be worth as much because they have less identifying info about the users?
I think it would be the new Instagram Threads app. It looks like a great way for them to get a lot of free content for their new app.
I’m very interested in what thr Mastodon and Lemmy instance admins have planned. I think there are great arguments made in: https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html
I haven’t heard counter arguments that are equally well supported, but would love to hear them.
No, more like the US’s revolution likely wouldn’t have succeeded if it wasn’t for the French support.
France’s revolution attempted for a democracy but that got twisted and they got Emperor Napoleon, so then they had to fight again.
Edit: And today the US and France are again fighting similar political battles so it feels like the strong support from a French person has a long history.
