It’s easy for Threads to take off because a bunch of people are posting about it on Instagram, which is extremely popular.
Watching so many people get threads on Instagram is, for me at least, like watching the millions of people blindly accept all of the whacky government requirements during covid.
The vast majority of people aren’t critical thinkers.
I thought it worked well, but these homes aren’t “typical,” they are on the higher end. Most of them looked like million dollar+ homes, though I recognize many would be cheaper depending on the location.
I can’t imagine reading through a full TOS. I know I should be, but damn, I wouldn’t have much time for anything else in life if I read all these ridiculously long TOS that companies put out.
You can also include your passport ID and bank information in the “extra notes” field. Thanks for all your data! 🙏
I find it problematic that Reddit thinks it can just sell all the content it’s users created. I like that people are deleting everything, making the site less useful, but it is sad losing all of that knowledge. I hope it reappears in the fediverse.
Imagine if Wikipedia changed its financial model. That would be a major, major problem.
Would it be possible to have you fediverse username connected to the blockchain so you could use it to associate with an instance? And if that instance closed, say, you could simply connect your blockchain based account identity to another instance?
I have a hard time trying new google stuff because it seems they kill it a few years later. Google used to be amazing, now I’m highly skeptical of the company. I’ve even switched to using Bing because google searches just result in a bunch of AI shit and other SEO bullshit.
Same. I’m posting more because these are real communities on a platform that isn’t run by a bunch of corporate pricks. It’s real community. Not a business.
It’s slick. I can’t believe it’s a web app. The reply buttons are a bit different, I had to find the swipe to reply.
I’d rather not as I’m done talking about COVID in my life. It’s evident, I think, that there were a lot of disagreements on what the response should be at various times. I think we can also agree, no matter which side of the political spectrum we fall, that COVID was not, on the whole, handled extremely well.
