My answer is that it depends on several factors. The first and least impactful thing you can do (and that’s in terms of both you and the other person) is to just block them. Next step up is that if they’re not on a big instance that you get content from regularly, just block their instance. After that, report them to your instance owner - they might get blocked from interacting with your instance. And the more heavy-duty action is to reach out to their instance owner with evidence and make your concerns known - then if they get booted, you can continue as you were; and if they don’t, block the instance.

Embrace the power of “And”.

Honestly, if an AI was running the country without some bastard prompting it, we might be better off for four years.

Totally agree with you that everyone in the fediverse should be working together. Especially the amazing devs.

On Android, software can be made with free tools, released on Github/Gitlab/Forgejo/etc, and pushed into an F-Droid repo. Heck, you might not even need the F-Droid side, you can just throw an APK up at your free host of choice. Plus, I don’t think there’s a language restriction in terms of what can be compiled for Android (I’ll make my ignorance known here). Apple is not an open platform. One language is accepted, they have one way to develop software, one (overstuffed) place to download that software from. It is much more difficult to develop an app for iOS compared to Android. And if you try to monetize it, people will use a PWA.

To make it clear, this is not meant to be a debate on Apple. This is just my take on why free fediverse software is much more likely to show up on Android.

That matters only if there’s enforcement. Otherwise, judges are just old men in robes ranting and raving about the way the world used to work.

I don’t really have a positive thing to say about people who want to stick to Apple as their primary device ecosystem.

It really is, from my limited use. I use the PWA on my (very old) phone and Firefox on desktop. But I like Interstellar.

Oh, I’m aware that both Lemmy and Mastodon have good apps. I’m just pointing out that if the ‘argument’ is that alternatives don’t have an app, MBin does have one.

Why aren’t we suggesting Mbin over Lemmy, actually? Because it seems like it has the same options. And Mbin even has an app (not just the PWA function)!

You do realize that’s all of what he’s after, right? He wants to be remembered in such a way that no American will ever be able to forget him. He doesn’t care why he’s remembered, only that he is. We don’t remember the name of the pilot of the Enola Gay, but we remember the plane, Fat Man, Little Boy, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Truman. Recognition and memory, for him, is more important than context.

The Mrrshan were cool, but my pick is the Elerians.

I wish I was shocked, given the town it’s in.

By “suddenly”, you mean, they always have?

Was it the same one the first Bowler fell down?

Not everything gets tested at Groom Lake. There’s also the Lakehurst skunk works.

He’s just saying the quiet part out loud though. This was always the rule.

Their leverage is their value to the company. If you’re not capable of providing more than minimum value for your employer, then why should you work for that company? Find a company you can do more for.
