Your order is already "algorithm based" and has been for like a decade, companies routinely adjust pricing and even selection based on your ad/surveillance footprint, say hiking the price of it think you got a payday recently (based on spending patterns etc). Idk about McDonald's (though I wouldn't be surprised) but the fact that Amazon does this is very well documented

I suspect the ones that prefer ai are like that for the same reason I preferred books.

"Tv never came home drunk. Tv never forgot me at the zoo" etc etc

People's morality about slaughtering meat is going to flip so hard once we get affordable lab grown meat, future generations will think of us as utter savages. But until then I don't think it's going to happen at scale

Yes the original use case is sending patches back and forth on the Linux kernel mailing list

That's just life on the Internet/fediverse in general, there's a constant churn of the small websites/instances as people inevitably burn out. You gotta be mentally prepared for it. I'm really sad since .ee was one of the few good instances that federated with the unpopular ones too

The only solution is improvements to the protocol so migrating instances is less painful. A different form of identity (key-based rather than domain based) would be cool to let us keep handles across instances
