The technical term is “platform decay”. “Enshittification” is not the term to lead with if you want people not aware to take you seriously.

And this isn’t that.

Your scenario doesn’t exist. All you had to do to get around this was make a new profile.

Which is not even a big deal because blocked users could just create a separate account to view posts they’re blocked from anyway.

No they aren’t. They are changing how it works, in a way that is mostly immaterial to the user. That is not even close to completely removing.

Less?

Not until now where they’ve been getting bomb threats to SCHOOLS and HOSPITALS.

What manufacturer? Name and shame.

CarPlay I can see if there’s an ongoing cost of making sure future Apple updates don’t break compatibility, but it’s very highly unlikely that will ever be an issue.

People won’t switch from driving to cycling over this. They’ll just pick one of the several dozen other car manufacturers.

That reddit thread is a gem. Funniest shit I’ve seen on WSB in a while.

The lawsuits haven’t even started. This is very very bad for them.

This is the way.

Mmmmm… silica.

How do you know if someone is a Linux user? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you. Lump them in with Vegans and Crossfitters.

Don’t normalize this shit.

Opposing viewpoints are fine. Disingenuous viewpoints that conveniently show the egregious fallacies of that viewpoint and ignore them when pointed out deserve all the criticism they get.

And we know what one specific viewpoint we’re talking about. Lemmy is so deeply infested with it now with the exact same bend that it’s a disgustingly obvious disinformation campaign and voter suppression tactic.

Again, don’t normalize this shit.

occasionally I’ll extend it for another 30 mins. I wouldn’t be surprised if that still uses less energy than just 30 mins high.

My dryer’s “energy saver” setting is just an hour on low with the moisture sensor reducing the time if needed.

It’s obvious you didn’t even read one sentence of the link. I know you and the troll farm have a job to do with your “Genocide Joe” rhetoric, but we’re tired of it and don’t want you here.

You’re right. But, the Fediverse is ActivityPub, and Threads is using ActivityPub, therefore Threads is part of the Fediverse.

The beauty of the Fediverse is you can defederate from whoever you want. But don’t confuse that with thinking that you can change the definition and rules of what the Fediverse is.
