I’m wondering what their motivation was for building it so that it could join the fediverse. I guess they recognize that the fediverse is the future, and they want their hand in that space.

I thought it worked well, but these homes aren’t “typical,” they are on the higher end. Most of them looked like million dollar+ homes, though I recognize many would be cheaper depending on the location.

I can’t imagine reading through a full TOS. I know I should be, but damn, I wouldn’t have much time for anything else in life if I read all these ridiculously long TOS that companies put out.

Meta is sickening. You have to have it for promoting events, artists and such, but it’s toxic and needs to be replaced.

As a music artist, I don’t know how to avoid platforms like Instagram and such while still promoting my art.

You can also include your passport ID and bank information in the “extra notes” field. Thanks for all your data! 🙏

More users should take all their contributions off. Especially if they are informative big posts. Reddit served as a platform that many people trusted, now it’s gone to a for profit model and blindsided all the people that never signed up for that.

I love your approach and hope it becomes the model for others. Anyone that contributes a lot should build a community that is not attached to any of the main for profit social media companies.

I find it problematic that Reddit thinks it can just sell all the content it’s users created. I like that people are deleting everything, making the site less useful, but it is sad losing all of that knowledge. I hope it reappears in the fediverse.

Imagine if Wikipedia changed its financial model. That would be a major, major problem.

I understand why developers want subscription models, but I simply cannot pay them monthly in perpetuity based on a promise that they will update the app so much that it’s value will increase in accordance with the monthly payments.

Mimestream was promising in beta. The subscription model is too much for me though.

Outlook is good. Apple mail is good. But I still like Spark the best, I think. But I dislike Spark’s terms of service and feel like they don’t respect my privacy or data.

I’ve also found this strange. Would love to know the answer.
