There are a ton around me. Every time I pass one I pay close attention to the body. Many times, it looks to me like the body panels just don’t line up. They kind of look like shit TBH.

I already peg Tesla drivers

O rly?

It served its purpose.

That’s a bit different IMO.

Moving social networks is way harder than buying goods from a different store (and there’s always piracy).

But I do take your overall point.

You’ll see these marketed as monitors sometimes, from what I’ve seen. Mostly it’s for businesses but if you want a dumb screen to connect things to, it might be called a “monitor” even if it has the form factor of a TV.

Then she’s probably staying on Twitter (or was never there in the first place) making this whole thread about moms moot.

Is she looking for alternatives?

If so, it sounds like she understands Twitter turned to shit and would be smart enough to not want that to happen again.

If she’s not looking for alternatives it sounds like she’s fine on Twitter.

See y’all next time everyone gets surprised and upset when their centralized social media gets bought by a conservative sycophant.

Did they not learn a damn thing?

All your base are belong to us

Was always a gimmick IMO.

What are the chances they were building a laptop?

How/why is that blocked?

Would it still be if China invades Taiwan?

For the right price.

iOS friends, check out the Mastodon client Ice Cubes.

It’s free (beer and speech) and it’s very good IMO.

Also, after you settle on a server, consider setting up a recurring donation to your admin to help with server costs. The way I see it, it’s that or ads and enshitification.

I see BlueSky as different than Lemmy. In my mind, Twitter = BlueSky and Mastodon and Reddit = Lemmy and Kbin (if that’s even still around).

They took crypto bros VC money.

Do we really think they’ll allow mass federation without getting returns on their investment?

On principle, personally. I was done with Reddit after the API shit.

My issue with BS is it took VC money from crypto bros.

What do we think will happen when they come looking for their returns on investment?

Looking like it’s about time lmgtfy to make a comeback.

That’s all valid.
