Twitter is dead. Long live BlueSky.
  • They are already here 😊. I use Mastodon and don't mind that more people come over. It's an interesting, active and friendly network with noticeable growth.

    But I guess Bluesky has it's own positive vibe and is an equally good choice for now.

  • Servers/wait staff, do you find it rude if patrons stack their plates while waiting for the check?
  • Alrighty. I asked myself the same question, so I will continue to today up my place in the future. Without putting stuff into cups and onto plates, of course. 😉

  • What's the dumbest way you've seen someone get fired?
  • They were asking for this, weren't they?

  • EV industry watching Musk's role in tariff fixing
  • The editor, Saibal Dasgupta, seems to be a journalist located in India.

    Voice of America's headquarter is in Washington though, so good question.

  • Simple site to copy Symbols
  • Very useful!

  • Habe vor 10 Minuten diesen Preview von Common Side Effects entdeckt. Neue Serie mit Beteiligung von Mike Judge. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FgkQQCFaYuY

    Ich mag sowas sehr. Die beiden DEA Agenten sind schonmal richtig coole Figuren.

  • This looks really good 👍

  • Project Liberty's core mission focuses on decentralizing social networking through an open-source Internet protocol. This technical framework would allow users to maintain ownership of their data and potentially transfer their social connections and content across different platforms. Which is a significant departure from the current system where user data remains locked within individual platforms.

    The proposed system would work similarly to email, where users can communicate across different service providers. In this vision, social media users could maintain their connections and content regardless of which platform they choose to use.

    His plans sound a lot like the Fediverse

  • Headless men
  • I like those drawings

  • What's the coolest thing your library has available to check out?
  • Looks great, gameplay seems interesting and I guess it's something for my 7yo son, too.

  • Yes, I wish there would be more. But I am okay with the state it's in. The engagement is good enough, and I discover interesting things every other day. You can't force it anyway.

  • What's the coolest thing your library has available to check out?
  • That's cool. What was your latest find?

    We are going for board games all the time. My son is six and he loves them

  • What's the coolest thing your library has available to check out?
  • A robot set for children. The robot is called Dash. It can be programmed with a tablet or laptop using special apps with a neat UI. We had one for two weeks and it was a lot of fun.

  • Why is Mastodon struggling to survive?
  • While I agree with the article and a lot of comments, I am still active on my Mastodon account and I am enjoying it more than ever.

    Disclaimer: I'm a white male westerner working in IT. 😉

    A friend of mine works in linguistics and education. He was an avid Twitter user and has since migrated to Bluesky and Mastodon. He says, Mastodon is quite complex and clunky but on Bluesky there's not much happening in his bubble.

    For me, the quality of the conversation and the regional character of my local instance is a big plus on Madison. On Lemmy, I read a lot on international and tech topics, but on Mastodon, the conversation is related more to my countries politics and my region.

    So, maybe they lost a lot of users. But the 14% that stayed are a good start for quite a vivid community.

    If anyone has questions on how to get something out of Mastodon, ask away or follow me here: [email protected].

    Gizmodo editor-in-chief sues Apple, alleging ‘Tetris’ movie on TV+ rips off his book - 9to5Mac

    As reported by Reuters, the lawsuit was filed by Dan Ackerman against Apple, screenwriter Noah Pink, Marv Studios, the Tetris Company, and others. The lawsuit alleges that “Tetris” is “substantially similar in almost all material respects” to his book published in 2016 entitled “The Tetris Effect.”

    The lawsuit says:

    > The movie entitled “Tetris” demonstrated the confiscation of Dan Ackerman’s original work and creation of his book “The Tetris Effect.” > Plaintiff Ackerman’s book took a unique approach to writing about the real history of Tetris, as it not only applied the historical record, but also layered his own original research and ingenuity to create a compelling narrative non-fiction book in the style of a Cold War spy thriller. > Mr. Ackerman’s literary masterpiece, unlike other articles and writings, dispelled of the emphasis on the actual gameplay and fans, and instead concentrated on the surrounding narrative, action sequences, and adversarial relationship between the players. > This was the identical approach Defendants adopted for the Tetris Film, without notable material distinction, but often resonating the exact same feel, tone, approach, and scenes as the book introduced several years prior. > As demonstrated herein, it becomes readily apparent that the Tetris film is substantially similar in almost all material respects including specific chapters and pages of said book that were simply adopted from the book to the film, without Plaintiff’s knowledge, authorization, or consent.

    Ackerman says that he sent a pre-release copy of “The Tetris Effect” to the Tetris Company in July 2016. CEO Maya Rogers, however, allegedly instructed the company not to “license any of the Tetris intellectual property, such as its name and image, for any motion picture or television project.” (...)

    Hide post feature

    I'd like to see a button that hides a post from my timeline and fills up the slot with the next interesting thing. Well, yes, just like Reddits hide post feature.

    Is there or will there be anything like multireddits in Lemmy?

    I had my subreddits neatly organized into different categories with several multis. Is there a feature (planned) in Lemmy that can recreate this?

    Desktop notifications in Firefox / Mac not clickable.

    I activated desktop notifications in my settings: Settings > Show Notifications for New Posts.

    They appear as a bubble in MacOs, but I can't do anything with them. There is no link that opens.

    Can I do something about that?

    Is there a search feature? I can't find it.

    I'm trying to search for communities or keywords like on the Lemmy browser version. I'm probably just missing something.
