A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Adam Mosseri:

Second, threads posted by me and a few members of the Threads team will be available on other fediverse platforms like Mastodon starting this week. This test is a small but meaningful step towards making Threads interoperable with other apps using ActivityPub — we’re committed to doing this so that people can find community and engage with the content most relevant to them, no matter what app they use.

Are you truly incapable of imagining that someone might have a different opinion than you without being bribed?

"Everyone who disagrees with me must be getting paid" is not the mature take you think it is.

Are you truly incapable of acknowledging that large bags of money motivate people to do unpopular things sometimes?

I really don't care about Mastadon as I haven't used it much, but I couldn't really think of a good reason for federating with Meta.

So you have evidence of bribes?

That's cool. Please share with the class.

LMAO... "bribes"... no, I have no evidence of "bribes." I don't have any evidence of a financial incentive either, as very clearly evident by my phrasing starting with "I bet..." I'm simply relying on 40 years of not having my head completely up my own ass to make some inferences about things, and if I'm wrong, then I'm wrong. I think you're being intentionally obtuse. None of this really is impactful, but you sure seem to have an agenda.

You have evidence that I'm wrong, correct?

[–] GammaGames@beehaw.org 1 points 11 months ago

That’s not how the burden of proof works.

Do you understand what "federating" means? It's a permission, not an obligation, for the instances to interact. It can also be filtered in any number of ways by any user.
