Where did the 39+ million users come from, as reported by @fedidb? This does not match the numbers reported for Popular Severs and Popular Software either.

#Mozilla has announced the new #MDN #Observatory would be released on January 31, 2024. But now all I get is a "HTTP Observatory is down" error. Has the web address for the tool also changed?

Attacking civilians is barbarism.

It doesn't matter who the perpetrators are, or the excuses given.

Attacking civilians is barbarism.

Is newsie.social blocking or limiting mastodon.social, or the other way around?
Again, all the news outlets I was following on newsie.social were unfollowed without any interaction or notification. This is really frustrating.

Here comes a new wave of #misinformation powered by #Twitter and #Musk. The 2024 US elections are going to be pretty ugly.

"This is a Code Red Warning about TESCREALism. If Yudkowsky's words are taken seriously by our political leaders, or perhaps some lone wolves, we should be extremely worried about the harms that could result. Over and over again, history shows that the march to utopia can leave a trail of destruction in its wake. If the ends can justify the means, and the end is paradise, then what exactly is off the table for protecting and preserving this end?"

Dangerous times ahead for #Argentina.

"What happens if an unstable country is ruled by an unstable leader?", asks journalist Juan González, author of a #Milei biography titled El Loco (The Madman) published last month. "I'm worried he will actually try to push through his impracticable economic theories further devastating the economy and provoking violent social unrest."

#Instagram has totally lost its appeal to me. The push to force the adoption of #Reels by users has wrecked the feed with a bunch of stupid vertical videos.

I really hope #Pixelfed will thrive, not only for being part of the broader #Fediverse, but also for being a place where pictures still have value.

It is actually long overdue for the #press to treat #Musk as the liar he is. But I doubt this will happen anytime soon. People in general, and the press in particular, seem to love a Reality Distortion Field (#RDF).

"This fight is bigger than #CCDH – it is a line-in-the-sand moment. If we allow ourselves to be strongarmed by #Musk and #X, it will give the green light to every other social media behemoth to do the same to anyone who dares to speak truth to power."

A very nice analysis of the regulatory landscape, but tainted by the usual #BigTech immediatism.

Has #Mastodon really failed? Isn't #Threads built on the #ActivityPub protocol? Wasn't #Meta considering to join the #Fediverse?

¯_(ツ)_/¯

"As we saw with the failure of Mastodon, new entry into the social media market is not impossible but it is very difficult, as it depends upon a critical mass of users making the switch together around the same time."

#DeSantis seems to be preparing himself to not fail where #Trump failed.

"On the governor's shopping list were helicopters, boats, police powers and reportedly even cellphone-hacking technology for a force outside of federal jurisdiction, and accountable directly to him."
