They’re turning it into a magazine - wonder when they’ll add personalisation algo
In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey; it was the best of times, it was the blorst of times. Angst for the memories Toronto, LDN, NYC & Melbourne
They’re turning it into a magazine - wonder when they’ll add personalisation algo
OP ignore these salty old dogs
Yeah maybe - I imagine the tech debt is hard to manage when you fire 80% of your staff.
I’m on the latest version of the app and latest iOS version so I suspect I’m not alone
So many ways:
I like the idea they think they can make an everything app when as a text app it’s so utterly broken
Oof, felt this right in the geriatric millennials.
Mfer I was doing assignments where I had to scroll through index cards to find the encyclopaedia, then hand write out the essay.
It’s weird when you go from being the disruptor demographic to realising that when your 5 yo kid jokes about the 80s it’s as far away in time to him as the 1940s we’re to me - for him it’s a 2d, pre-Alexa, analog dystopia.
And I’m only 42.
I’m not sure actually. I just tried to screen record and it wouldn’t let me. Then I tried to take a screenshot and it triggered a no screenshots pop-up
Welcome to life after 40 - I’ve been an early adopter all my life, but my network hasn’t moved with me.
As a result joining Snapchat has no value for me.
So I tend to use apps that are friend-agnostic like this and TIkTok.
Side note: my fave messaging app is Confide, it only reveals redacted words as you run your finger over them, and then deletes. So it’s impossible to screenshot.
Just like all my hopes and dreams
I saw that function posted elsewhere, but I assume it’s from a desktop interface because I can’t see it in the app
Me too. Has more of a small town feel. Usually, because I’m in Australia, my comments are buried and never get replied to because the US is sleeping. Here, people are actually engaging. Loving it so far.
Wish the sorting worked a little better in wefwef so I’m not scrolling past the same posts each time, but otherwise feels like the reddit I joined 16 years ago (or slightly thereafter when comments were added)
I remember watching a clip from “The Network” where Jeff Daniel’s is interviewing an expert on climate change. It was when it was too late - and the expert lore or less said so.
It struck me as prescient - that despite all the warnings we’d be shocked when it came and it was irreversible.
Tbh it came sooner than I expected.
Think it’d end up being astroturfing if anything - forum bombing positive sentiment, opinion etc
I’m sorry you feel that way, but I get where you’re coming from.
Zoom out a little though and it’s consequences are war, famine, and desecration.
If not the human suffering, consider eons long chains of biology that’ll be wiped off the face of the earth as climates shift quicker than their ability to adapt
That was fantastic- sums up the stages pretty well
I think it’ll probably take the university being active for anything to happen there - you need an anchor employer and consumers.
I worry it’ll end up like docklands - some ai generated idea of what a city should be
Awesome, thank you!
I tried mastodon very briefly about 6mths ago, and it seemed pretty quiet ala diaspora - has it filled up a bit now?
We really just sleepwalking into a Cyberpunk dystopia huh?
Oh yeah? I’ve never used the main app/site
