Time for an ICQ for the Fediverse?

Looks like ICQ is finally shutting down, just as interest in retro internet tools is growing.

"Cox said that Emu can make “really amazing quality images” thanks to “Instagram being the data set that was used to train it” which he described as “one of the great repositories of incredible imagery.”"

This is a great reason for people to switch over to alternatives like

I think the is the kind of thing that has to happen to a social system like the Internet to force you to be engaged, more self-sufficient, and not reliant upon the largesse of government subsidies and vampiric commercial entities.

We have to drive it to keep it.

@kuketzblog Eine Partei soll weg? In einer parlamentarischen ? Ich glaub ich bin im falschen Film! :-( Bei aller Sympathie fürs , ich komme an die Grenzen meiner Toleranz. Mit Menschen, die eine Partei wie die wegwünschen, möchte ich nichts am Hut haben. Solche Leute möchte ich nicht in D‘land haben. Die sollen sich mit den Plakatabreißer:innen in eines der tollen Einparteienländer trollen.

"Thus, an “influencer” could easily post a link to an article written by someone else within their own social media feed. The conversation was removed from the blog post and instead developed in the influencer’s feed. As a result, carefully written articles have become a mere resource for influencers."

The fediverse has the potential to change that as more blog engines like WordPress and Ghost implement ActivityPub.

Why would Google News basically randomize the order of the results in their search?

I want to know what's new in the press about the #fediverse and I have to manually scan the whole list.

REPLACEMENT

I asked this a while ago but I wanted to ask again since I'm on a new server :

Long time Reddit user but I'm tired of their bullish!t and want to move on like I moved on from the bird site... or now I guess it's the swastica site.

What is everyone using to replace Reddit in their lives?

"At least two digital media companies are exploring the fediverse as a way to take more control over their referral traffic and onsite audience engagement." The Verge and 404 Media will both support ActivityPub and the fediverse. https://werd.io/view/665233a622e6230d5c0d69d2

☝️ Yes, the #Internet was not broken yesterday, only #Bing from #Microsoft and therefore these so-called alternatives, which apparently resist #Google. You should expand your naive belief and behaviour via #SearXNG, @Mojeek and/or #Stract search. You can find it by #search'ing for the corresponding hashtags in #Fediverse.
