Jesus christ, what about hateful idiot.

He's doing exactly what Putin asked.

You’re literally the one nitpicking the analogy lmao.

you literally started it ¯(ツ)_/¯ - apologies for not phrasing it properly, English is not my first language.

Enjoy your cost of living crisis

que miedo 😱

Burgerland

🤣

apologies for not exactly spelling it out for you - is the US actively bombing innocent cubans? I get it, there's a torture camp- wish it didn't exist. analogies don't have to be perfect.

Google‘s or Apple‘s push notification servers turns out that doesn’t matter so much from what I undertstood.

Can you elaborate? It's my understanding that push notifications are only used to trigger Signal to check if there are messages - the message data and who/what triggered it is not being sent to Google/Apple. If you don't trust push notifications, you can always use a De-google'd phone and the Signal APK which will fallback to polling the server; this will obviously impact battery life as the app needs to constantly be checking for new messages.

in this scenario, does florida invade cuba first?

North Korean soldiers were being disguised as Russians and were acting under the Kremlin’s command instead of their own, South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun reported to lawmakers Thursday, his office told NBC News.

And I answered it? There are multiple wealthy people involved. Do you expect the full name, address, and social security number of every individual? I don't care to do all that research for you. My point still stands, Bluesky's devs are in debt (via investments) to wealthy people who will want to extract value (money) from it. Enshittification is inevitable.

They've invested millions and they wouldn't unless they expected a significant return. The only way to get a return on a social media investment is either ads or subscriptions via enshittifying it just enough to get people to pay. bluesky is destined to be trash.

OP has posted (and re-posted) about Bluesky about 40 times in the last 48 hours. I’m down voting every single one. Quit shilling for billionaires.

yes, lets further divide what's left of the US. /s

You don’t have to make an informed decision.

Correct, but you are still presented with a decision that adds friction to the onboarding experience. I was aware of how Mastodon works and that I could migrate and it took me a while to create an account because I didn't want to "waste my time". I can't imagine a regular user being prompted to "select an instance", decide to go with the first one they see, and registration is either closed or invite only. That's a huge barrier to entry compared to being forced into a single login that is always open.

Meanwhile, if you’re worried about something you don’t align with, then you don’t even get that choice with a centralized platform like Bluesky. For example, I don’t align with any of this shit https://toad.social/@davetroy/113476788536250587

100000% agree with you. I would never create a bluesky account because of that. Unfortunately people aren't as informed and most really just don't care.

Having to make an informed decision is a barrier to entry. it took me a while because I wanted to make sure I didn't join (and waste time/effort) something I didn't align with.

Thoroughly dismantling America. Sad day for Americans, exactly what Putin ordered.

wouldn't implementing ranked choice voting in blue states just further fracture them and weaken them against red states? I would think it would make sense to initiate ranked choice in red states first.

the real answer shines through when you step outside of US politics. The global recession had people in every country questioning the incumbent party. It doesn't matter if it was left or right, conservative or liberal, whoever was in office was being blamed - because the public in general has no idea how the world works and has the collective memory of a goldfish. The US is performing better than most countries [1][2][3][4][5] in regards to the impact covid-19 had on the world, but Americans are too uneducated to realize they had it good, as the road to recovery is never easy.

With the public angry at the incumbent government (globally, not just in the US), the Trump/Putin hate machine decided to to stoke fear, uncertainty and doubt in Americans. This clearly worked as people's views on the nations economy have been trending down [6], so now we're left to deal with the Magagenda, which all seem to align with everything Putin ever hoped for.

You would think people would learn that republicans tend to wreck the economy just for democrats to fix it, and republicans to shit all over any progress that's been made again, but just like dogs aren't smart enough to learn that a snake bite's venomous bite could kill them an hour later, Americans can't seem to grasp the concept of economic momentum and that changes made in one term may not be immediately fixed - especially if the previous guy smeared his shit all over the bathroom walls before he left. It's understandable it will take some time to clean up.

Anyways, Trump took advantage of these economic hard times by stoking fear and hatred with claims that the incumbent party is to blame, that it's all corrupt, and somehow immigrants and trans people are to blame.

In summary, we've got a known rapist/conman/cheater with a history of rape, conning, and cheating and we're supposed to believe he won fair and square? I don't buy it.

You do realise they’re trying to become the crypto WeChat?

Any evidence to support this claim?

Because I'm aware Signal introduced a beta crypto wallet 7 years ago, which was originally only available in select countries, and has had minimal resources allocated to its continued development since. They make zero mention of crypto/payment on their website, and best of all, the crypto wallet isn't even enabled by default.

Shit app with horrible management.

And here you expose your personal emotional trauma by lashing at at the most inconsequential "nothing": the development of a privacy preserving crypto wallet, "feature complete" half a decade ago, and disabled by default in a privacy preserving messenger.

Signal is the best free, open source, E2EE messenger that doesn't leak metadata and has decent UX. Best of all, its completely free to use. Simplex is a good contender, but the UX is still lacking.

You genuinely don’t need to make concessions.

So backwoods white Christian nationalists are okay with abortion? Gay marriage? Women's rights? Interracial marriage? Muslims Immigrants? Mexican immigrants? People not having a full grasp of the English language?

You, like all neoliberal excuses, have no idea what the working class of America is like, which is amazing because statistically you’re a part of it.

You're attacking a straw man brother. You have no idea who I am, where I came from or what experiences I have. You've also painted a picture that doesn't match reality based on your own experience. The world isn't as shallow as your singular perspective nor is it black or white.
