And the CEO is Emil Sutovsky, who recently made a twitter poll, basically asking, let's be honest, does anyone actually care to watch this women's tournament? When he never made a similar poll for any other tournament.
The chess world really needs to outgrow the sexist and transphobic FIDE
Unsure if this fits here, but the tool's been quite fun to look through. It lets you look at specific Fediverse software and instances, see graphs for their growth. And there's even a whole section for the Threadiverse (Lemmy & Kbin)
This morning I looked at the trending tab of my instance, and was pretty confused when #bbc was the first result. Glad that curiosity got the best of me though
Honestly, this is really good to hear! More mainstream accounts will definitely get the fediverse a bit more credibility.
And here's a bit more from BBC:
The team at BBC Research & Development are researching social technologies and exploring possibilities for the BBC. One part of our work is to establish a BBC presence in the Fediverse.
This is an experiment - we will run it for 6 months, and then look at how much value it has provided, how much work it requires to maintain and then decide whether and how to continue. We're learning as we go, and we'll write about what we discover in the hope that it might be useful for others. The BBC will continue its normal social media activity in the usual places.
We're starting off small with just a handful of accounts from R&D and our colleagues at BBC Radio, but we hope to be adding more accounts from other areas of the BBC soon:
Any recommendations? I use firefox, but haven't quite moved from google search yet. Last I heard DuckDuckGo was doing some shady stuff, but that was a while ago
If that was the only place you could get pride books? Sure
But I can only assume that there are other pride books around the library, and I think having a designated pride section is good for those who want it.
Agreed, if somebody is spam downvoting comments (Which is honestly quite the pathetic act), then people should be able to see that, and block/report them
Reddit realized that they don't even have to try to hide the messaging. Their audience will stay, and think that they're making a difference by saying Fuck Spez everywhere
"average person kills 1 cops in their life" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person kills 0 cops per year. Cops dais, who lives in cave & killed 7 billione, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.
Before the whole Reddit migration I was passively aware of the Fediverse, I thought I somewhat grasped the concept, and had created a Mastodon account, but never really used it.
But once the migration started, I decided to try out Kbin, and really liked it, and even started to use Mastodon more often.
