I regret to inform you that I am temporarily limiting my Mastodon feed to 60 posts per minute because bloody hell how fast do you think I can read this stuff anyway?
600 Posts pro Tag: Twitter führt Leselimit für nicht zahlende Nutzer ein
Twitter-Chef Elon Musk klagt über ein "extremes Ausmaß der Datenauslese und Systemmanipulation". Die Folgen bekommen vor allem nicht zahlende Nutzer zu spüren.
@heiseonline
Ich hätte "kündigt an ein Limit einzuführen" geschrieben. Gut möglich, dass das genauso schnell verworfen wird, wie das Verbot von Links auf andere Plattformen.
@milan „Jetzt ist also ein guter Zeitpunkt für Admins, ihre Position mitzuteilen, wenn sie eine haben, oder die Leute wissen zu lassen, dass sie sich noch nicht entschieden haben. Für diejenigen, die offen für Beiträge und Diskussionen sind, ist es auch ein guter Zeitpunkt, die Community einzuladen, ihre Ansichten mitzuteilen." #meta#fediverse https://netzpolitik.org/2023/big-tech-zoff-um-die-zukunft-des-fediverse/
@mojoaxel@milan Und ich nicht, das die Inhalte die ich hier veröffentliche, auf einer Platform der Firma Mreta auftauchen.
Je nachdem wie man dazu steht, ist man allerdings davon abhängig was die jeweilige Instanz macht.
@mojoaxel Klar darf auch Meta Server betreiben. Aber keine andere Instanz ist gezwungen mit Metas Servern zu föderoeren. Und das ist auch gut so.
Da bereits etwa 1000 Instanzen klar gestellt haben, das sie Meta blockieren, habe ich hier gerade eher zuviel Auswahl wohin ich umziehe. 😁
P92 ist nicht nur eine andere App(Front-End) sondern wohl auch eine eigene Serversoftware. Und ob die sich an die derzeitigen Regeln halten, oder einfach eigene aufstellen bleibt abzuwarten.
@stux Ok, can't follow up all the discussion here but I saw no one else mention it. And I am sure I speak for all the others. We love you too. :ablobcatbongo:
The thing that saddens me the most about the whole fedi/meta drama is a thing I can't prove, but that I think is likely because I've worked in these kinds of tech companies.
The notion that Meta is looking to embrace/extend/extinguish the fediverse is laughable. The entire fedi userbase is a rounding error for Meta. They arent looking to take down the fediverse, they're trying to take down TWITTER.
They want the celebs and journalists back. Take advantage of Twitter's tarnished reputation.
@supernovae@CazimodoCreative The original idea was, that people could decide if they want their conversation to be searchable by using a # or not by not do so. Full Text search can heat up discussion by bringing people to hot topics. Observed this in the Birdcage at least.
@supernovae
Why not set up your personal account there for that?
It's a matter of even more then just liking facebook, if your users content is showcased in their product. 🤷
@supernovae
My point is, that Meta must have a reason to come to ActivityPub in the first place. And that seems to be Fedis user base. Of course IG/FB has a bigger one, but they want growth for growths sake, for sure.
Yeah, I am a fan of don't federate with Meta at all.
Anyway thanks for the answer.
And don't let these (ehem) artholes go under your skin. :ablobcatreach:
I don’t like to mention that rich guy over at #Twitter, but he’s rambling on about #ClimateChange & agriculture, which is in my wheelhouse. And he is also unabashedly & absurdly wrong.
Misinformation on climate change is irresponsible & dangerous, so let’s be clear:
25% to 30% of global emissions come from our #food system.
As UT Austin’s Michael Webber describes, agriculture is a major cause, victim and - importantly - meaningful solution to #climate change.
What worries me about the #FediPact is that those joining might be pressured to defederate from every server that did not sign the Pact, as data from Meta-blocking instances that goes through Meta-neutral servers might be exfiltrated to them anyways. And that would lead to a major balkanization of the #Fediverse, potentially splitting it in roughly two halves. Either scenario would be great for Meta: one half might be functionally absorbed by corporate, while the other half becomes its own echo chamber that slowly but surely dwindles in numbers. The privacy aware servers end up being functionally non-federating any longer, and to be fair many users would rather have it that way as their own carved safe space on the Internet, but barely anyone will even care about it existing and thus financial support will most likely suffer.

@tchambers
Why will Meta even come to the existing Fediverse? Because there is content and users that give their product value. So preemptive blocking is nescesary if we don't want to contribute for their business.
If they would jbuild a twitter like based on AP for all FB/IG users and stay on their own with this, they were bigger but it wouldn't be oroblematic.
Twitter is now completely "walled" (dont wanna rattle cages with a wrong title whoopsie)
On this moment you'll need an account to view anything on the platform.....
