I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others’ words. Weird, isn’t it?

we are real thank you very much
I’ve never heard this about DHH or Omarchy
on mobile rn, how well does that do inline links?

just general vlogs about their interests
I much prefer browsing the web instead of 2-clicking within each FTP path. (If you built a client to 2-click that for you then that’s just the HTTP web with extra steps.)
I sympathize, but Gopher is designed against hypertext (inline links in text). It is impossible to have e.g. Wikipedia transmitted over Gopher.
for niche communities so small and so tech-nonliterate that simply have no chance of being on the fediverse i went to tumblr instead
As an editor, based on the difference she made in community–WMF dynamics, I would say that Iskander is really useful.
the bulk of the work is crowdsourced
No. The WMF does not work on Wikipedia’s content. They focus on fundraising, hosting, software, legal, and the rare cross-wiki initiative.
The tension has decreased a ton with the CEO-ship of Iskander, with many long-requested features being delivered
I think the answer has changed a bit since they got a much better CEO who’s doing a lot more communication and engagement with the community, which dictates what Wikipedia looks like
It seems like at least changing annually would be better than the current system.
In theory, this should make games “more accessible to a larger audience.” But, as Water CS2 says, “The problem lies in the data Valve uses to make these suggestions.” According to the YouTuber, Valve hasn’t updated its conversion rates since 2022, when it first introduced the regional pricing system. At that point in time, “the Polish currency was near its weakest” – but Steam is still “using this weak old rate” from three years ago.

I was arguing against “Mbin is not quite like anything else”. assuming Lemmy is a copy of Reddit, Mbin is a copy of (Reddit + Twitter). to be more precise I can also say it’s just Lemmy + Mastodon.
technically it’s not part of any definition of “social media”, but it’s so ubiquitous that pretty much every well-known social media platform has it. this thing is a recommendation algorithm that acts on its own filters and aggregates items onto a homepage; usenet only had “filtering” by rooms. and yes, this definition would include reddit with its algorithm. i’m still unfortunately unable to find what you’re referring to that would be such an algorithm.
though since the beginning this has been a bit of a tangent—i mentioned disregarding that part of facebook’s innovations since it would be an unfair comparison. what did you mean when you said i was, well to put it a much harsher way than what you actually said but in the only way i can succintly summarize it after putting down this overly long disclaimer, dismissive of innovations?
I capitalize for comparison (to Social Media) and have my humanity doubted >:((((
I suggest you watch Tantacrul’s video on Facebook for what made it a social network and social media service respectively—the latter, centralized feeds, which from a skim of his Wikipedia article I don’t see what Kibo has anything to do with.
you’re outright lying/trolling about the conclusion
