It does block them more so than on fedi. When I block someone they can’t see my content nor account, they can’t log out and go see my content. It’s not just filtered, also they have banned accounts and removed content

What do you mean by “kind of see where they’re coming from”?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Those aren’t the kind of forks that this article is addressing

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I don’t think there’s currently any platforms that do that but depending on what mobile and computing OS you use there’s client option

You say that but it’s a one year old play form and protocol, of course it is just Bluesky. The Fediverse existed long before Mastodon and Mastodon is 8 years old, so I don’t get your point. That still doesn’t touch upon the negative to tethering users identity to instances. Many of them have tried Mastodon and it was a poor experience for them. So, it’s not an option. The Fediverse isn’t for everyone and that is absolutely okay. People are hoping to leave and not use Twitter/X, they have good alternatives that suits their needs and that should be celebrated.

It is being speculated that they’re trying to give up Surtain and a farm to move up to get a QB

I get it, Sports Twitter is resilient and still is where the good stuff is. I mostly read and listen to The Athletic. The Threads sports community is solid, sports & tech are the reasons I made a Threads account. NFL Threads is typically lively

Same, The Athletic is my primary source of info. I listen to Move The Sticks podcast as well.

 

Man it has come so quickly. Do any of you keep up either the pre-draft content? What sources do you use for NFL content?

Yes, they opened federation a couple months ago and people are running their own PDS. It’s different from Twitter as people can own their identity, it’s only been out a little over a year, give it time dude. Mastodon is 8 years old. Blue sky has custom feeds over 40k of them made by various people, mute lists and block lists that are shareable and abled to be subscribed to, use identities are not tethered to instances, more controls of what they see and don’t see. You have a bunch of liberals and marginalised communities on there enjoying themselves. Why would go to Twitter?

Send them to jail and then I hope hell

They stopped calling it CP. As Porn is typically consensual and is typically what people think of when they think of Porn, they’re not thinking it’s two legal persons where one has not consented. Thus to avoid any confusion or possibility of downplaying its severity they changed the term from CP.

 

Just wondering if you guys and the mods think it would be a good idea to have a thread for free agency moves and discussion?

What makes you say that Kbin and Mbin have died out?

 

I was thinking how people are upset at Remake as they feel it deviates too much from og. The creators have said that it will remain true to the original but maybe they weren't referring to the ideas but to the core themes of og. Seeing Sephiroth introduced so early in FF7R, the whispers, different worlds etc. It got me thinking about what Sephiroth said at the Temple of the Ancients. He said "It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury... What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha ha ha. And at the center of that injury, will be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with all the energy of the Planet, I will become a new life form, a new existence.Melding with the Planet... I will cease to exist as I am now... Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every soul." Remember he is in-between alive/dead as he has not be absorbed by the lifestream. The planet uses that to heal itself. If he casts Meteor he kills two birds with one stone. He kills people and mortally wounds the planet. When the planet goes to heal itself he will absorb the life energy. The worlds merging benefits him as maybe it takes two planets worth of life energy to become a god.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/10462412 Q&A on ActivityPods and Its Integration with Memory for the Lemmy Community**

Q1: What is ActivityPods and How Does It Relate to Memory?

A1: ActivityPods is a framework that combines ActivityPub, a decentralised social networking protocol, with Solid Pods, personal online data stores. It allows for unified data management and control across various platforms. Memory, built upon ActivityPods, leverages this framework to offer users a more integrated, secure, and user-controlled experience.

Q2: I'm New to the Fediverse. How Does ActivityPods Enhance My Experience?

A2: For newcomers, ActivityPods offers a simplified yet powerful way to engage with the Fediverse. Instead of managing multiple accounts on different platforms (like Mastodon, Pixelfed), you have one centralised profile and data store (Pod). This means easier management of your digital identity and activities across various platforms.

Q3: I'm a Current Fedizen. Why Should I Consider Using Memory?

A3: As an existing Fediverse user, you'll appreciate the enhanced data control and portability that Memory offers. Your data is stored in your own Pod, giving you full control over it. Plus, you can interact with different Fediverse platforms using a single account, streamlining your social media experience.

Q4: For Fediverse Admins/Mods, What Are the Benefits of ActivityPods?

A4: Admins and moderators will find that ActivityPods simplifies user management and enhances security. Since users control their own data in Pods, there's less burden on the platform for data storage and protection. It also opens up new possibilities for cross-platform moderation and community engagement.

Q5: As a Fediverse Developer, How Can I Utilise ActivityPods in My Projects?

A5: Developers can harness ActivityPods to create more user-centric and interoperable applications. It supports semantic web standards for data, ensuring compatibility across different platforms. This means you can develop apps that seamlessly integrate with various parts of the Fediverse, enhancing the overall ecosystem.

Q6: Will My Username and Identity Be Consistent Across Platforms with ActivityPods?

A6: Yes, ActivityPods aims to provide a consistent username and identity across different platforms. While the specifics can vary based on implementation, the general idea is to have a unified digital presence in the Fediverse, making your interactions more cohesive.

Q7: How Does ActivityPods Ensure My Data Privacy and Security?

A7: Your data is stored in Solid Pods, which you have full control over. You can set permissions for who accesses your data and how it's used. This decentralised approach to data storage means enhanced privacy and security, as your information isn't held in a central server controlled by a single entity.

Q8: Can I Move My Existing Fediverse Data to Memory?

A8: The portability feature of ActivityPods should, in theory, allow you to move your existing data to Memory. However, this process might depend on the specific platforms you're currently using and their compatibility with ActivityPods.

Q9: Is Memory with ActivityPods Suitable for Non-Technical Users?

A9: Absolutely! One of the goals of Memory built on ActivityPods is to make decentralised social networking accessible and user-friendly. Even if you're not technically inclined, you can enjoy a streamlined and secure social media experience.

Q10: How Can I Get Started with Memory and ActivityPods?

A10: Getting started is as simple as signing up for a Memory account. From there, you'll be guided through setting up your Pod and connecting with various platforms in the Fediverse. The process is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly.
