Andrew's latest activity

@dansup @andreagrandi Yeah, I think that's all we can do really. Nobody can *stop* Meta or X implementing ActivityPub, that's kind of one of its strengths. We just have to be clear with ourselves about what we're building and how, and make sure we do it responsibly. (I've not been following your projects all that closely so I'm just going to assume you're doing that.)

@dansup @andreagrandi I think it's fair, yes. People keep saying stuff like this as if these platforms are just uwu smol bean fedi admins who were trying to run chill little communities when suddenly billions of users signed up overnight and now they're doing their best to moderate it all but really struggling to find the time what with work and childcare. They're not, they're groups of grown adults who sat around a conference table one day and deliberately chose to allow libsoftiktok to stay on their platforms because they'd make very slightly more money that way and that's more important to them than keeping vulnerable people safe. If your goals for fedi are anything more noble than "make network big" then surely Meta are almost by definition your enemy?

@dansup I really enjoy how quickly the fourth column descends from a fully established nonprofit to "an anonymous Dutchman (I never knew I had it in me)"

@dansup I'm the same, vscode for big projects and sublime for smaller stuff. It's faster and less mental load, so if I don't need all the vscode extras

@darius I think you just sent all the reply guys into an infinite loop trying to work out what an ironic annoying reply to this would look like
