A logical extension of your post really makes you think just how much of social media post-2007 was set up on fundamentally unsustainable business models. Engagement is not a good business model! Making investors pay for users was always a bad choice and sooner or later, investors were going to ask for their money back!
It will be interesting to see how social media changes post-2023. With Meta almost vestigial (except Instagram and marketplace), Twitter and Twitch absolutely clowning away their positions, what's next? Jeff Bezos and/or Daddy Sundar reinvesting in social media?
@hybridhavoc Please, for the sake of your mental health, get an SSD. A few months ago, I replaced the HDD on an old Mac Mini and paid only $15 for a 256GB SSD. The mf runs like it's new.
Does it take a lot less time these days? The 2014 Mac Mini is the first and (so far) the only Apple device I've owned. The OS installation and updates take close to an hour on this one.
Spez after the AMA be like (beehaw.org)
it is genuinely hard to believe how it could have gone worse
so, which Big Tech company do you think is going to shit the bed next and popularize its Fediverse/FOSS equivalent in the process?
I'm personally crossing my fingers for Discord.
