Pretty much lol. If I remember correctly his reason for leaving was them adding moderation tools

he left Bluesky around 2 years ago

It sounds like you could use any markdown app that supports tags or links. You can search for file by tag or create index notes that you link other notes to, letting you view all of them from the backlinks pane.

A lot of Obsidian users do not use folders for organization at all, both of the methods above are common. You could also look at Logseq which has similar features.

Apologies if I’m misunderstanding your requirements, lmk if I did.

The only options are Samsung, Google, and Apples messaging apps. Every carrier uses Google implementation of it and they have not created an open api for other apps to use it.

Even if a third party app supported it, it’d still be completely reliant on Googles RCS services.

I think it comes from the fact that a lot of communities and projects use Discord basically like they would with IRC, with voice chats often not even existing in some servers. I have to assume the people who recommend Matrix are only ever in that kind of server.

I’m in 2 or 3 servers with different friend groups and of course each one is full of friends of friends of friends. Even the smallest is over 30 people, but I only regularly join VC with 3-4. If I had to call all of them to be in a voice call I would literally never do it.

Same goes for chats, in Matrix the closest things to channels and servers is rooms and spaces. The difference is that you don’t join a space, you just view rooms in the space and join them. Most of my servers have a ton of different channels for different things, I want to be able to see what happens in all of them without having to join each one, announcing to them that I’ve joined.

I like Matrix for FOSS project discussions, but I don’t think it’ll ever be the right pick for just hanging out with friends.

This is just a link to the branding repo. There isnt much to maintain in there.

Drop-in voice channels are a requirement for a discord alternative, Matrix does not have them. AFAIK you still need to call an entire channel to start a voice chat.

This is true that some blurs could be undone, but the ones used in the files are definitely destructive and cannot be undone. Grok and any other image generation tool is also definitely not capable of doing it. It requires knowledge of how it was blurred so you can use the same algorithm to undo it, models simply guess what it should look like.

Agreed, using a planning phase makes a huge difference. It will break the implementation into steps, making reviewing or manually refactoring parts of the code far more easily.

Ngl I did not think about that at all. There are loads of sites with social in the name, like the flagship mastodon instance.

It seems kinda silly to stop using social as in the name for social websites because of them.

I’ve been playing since the minute the patch dropped and its been working fine

Yeah, there isnt even a merge request upstream yet and it seems like no tests have been added, which I’m sure will be required before merge.

They did release a binary of their fork, and you can always build it yourself as well.

You can also set them to only show up when you click a button for them, which I always preferred.

Like the other US gov accounts that are on Bluesky, it sucks that they’re their and get verified, but Bluesky is a US based company. If they refused to verify or outright banned those accounts, I think its really likely they’d face legal threats from the Trump regime, similar to CBS. I dont think those threats would be valid, but that lately our courts do not care.

ICE is already the third most blocked account, with nearly 100k blocks and only 330 followers, the majority of which seem to be following so they can ratio them in the replies whenever they decide to post. I think this kinda supports my point that federating with Bluesky is definitely not going to be flooding us with pro ICE users.

Thanks to moderation lists they were blocked by a massive amount of users they even knew they had made an account, essentially leaving them with just a void to post into.

I can’t find any evidence of that at all, but even if it is true, that still wouldn’t mean federating Bluesky has anything to do with a high demand to talk with ICE supporters.

What? Do you actually think Bluesky is full of ICE supporters? Most of my feed right now is full of support for protests against ICE, calls for it to be abolished, and hate towards democrat reps that are too cowardly to commit to abolishing it.

I just searched ICE and clicked top, the first two posts are some ICE Nazis busting ass on actual ice, and the third is just a post that says abolish ICE. The rest are all pretty similar.

This is AI generated garbage with no sources.

This sub has been full of shitty clickbait headlines from this site.

Yeah, I wasn’t trying to say SQLite is universally better. I shouldn’t have said best option, I really meant best default. I don’t think the majority of users are running a central db, most will just spin-up docker compose files for each service and end up with multiple SQL versions running.

I’ve had a lot of problems in the past from software crashes that left sqlite files in a corrupt state

I have had this issue, but it was always easily recoverable. I haven’t had the same issues with backups, although a lot of the software I use that’s running SQLite has a builtin backup feature, then I just backup that directory to a cloud service.

Besides that SQLite really doesn’t play nice with NFS, which is the basis for quite a few cloud storage providers. Also a good point, I just don’t think the majority of users are using NFS for their DBs.

When an app is using an ORM already, I think they might as well make sure it supports both SQLite and a hosted DB like Postgres

GNOME has plenty of features that are off by default and still exist. The merge request also mentions that redhat would 100% recieve complaints from paying customers if it was removed. Theyre very clearly aware that people still want this feature. You’re just assuming the worst.
