Vimeo is not for the same purpose. It's more B2B. I read somewhere that after a certain threshold they start billing you for views.

I'm into it. All of the news is bad news for him and I love it. It's like a house burning for a year and I just like checking in on it every few days.

Version 4 has been a decent upgrade. I still have some gripes with the overall behavior and interface, but it's very capable software.

With the exception of AI Denoise the AI stuff is of little interest to me. I got in on the Kickstarter for Abode and am hoping that will be a suitable paid alternative.

Just curious, what are the biggest features that you feel Darktable lacks? I use it occasionally but haven't noticed any huge gaps from LR.

Agreed. Nobody wants the eBay police, but sellers and buyers should be the ones held accountable.

I heard about the bill a few weeks ago on The Daily. Shortly after I was on LinkedIn and noticed that some of the devs from my company and a company that mine contracts with would only list a last initial. It made me wonder if the reason for that was because of caste discrimination.

It's just a crude thing to say. If we say crude things out on the Internet for all to see, then we're being crude and that reflects on our character. Just try to be good that's all.

I have no complaints. It's nearly perfect device to me.

It really brings us down to their level when we use words like trumptard or magatard. Take the high road and stick to calling them hypocritical idiots.

Sorry, but Elon is about 40 billion in the red compared to this guy so I think he's got Unity bosses beat by a lot.

I agree with the other commenter that it sounds a bit like the Fediverse. It's interesting to think about. I think part of what draws people to any messaging platform is continuity with the other services on the platform. The actual messaging experience can be duplicated or exceeded by anyone, like how RCS has made the humble text message more powerful and compatible than anyone at Apple could comprehend.

With this idea, would any messaging platform that became ultra successful be then required to allow other platforms to message their users? Which platforms are allowed? How is spam managed? What about special privacy features like what's built in to Signal or Telegram? How do the platforms manage linking to content embedded in other parts of the platform (think Instagram posts/reels/messenger).

There are a lot of difficult issues to work out.
