I have actually seen people worrying about the computational burden of handling all the extra data this could produce. I seem to recall someone actually doing back of envelope math and concluding that federation with threads would be cost prohibitive for a lot of instances.

My understanding is that corporations are constantly trying and sometimes succeeding at influencing w3c standards to go in a direction which is favorable to themselves. For example increasing the legitimacy of DRM and surveillance. Developers of non-profit software (eg mozilla) then have to choose whether to be out of compliance or support nefarious technologies. If they choose against supporting the standards, then all users notice is that the application “doesn’t work” on certain websites.
I don’t necessarily know if running away and hiding is along term solution to this though.

"I miss the good old internet. This isn’t a talk about how we can get the old good internet back. It’s a talk about what a new good internet could be. And why we don’t have it yet, and how we could get it. "
I love this guy. And he’s gonna do this whole 45 minute talk wearing a mask. Total badass.
the beehaw admins have never pretended to be anything other than opinionated. the underlined articles sound stupid and I’m sure nobody is missing your dumb shit.
you are tedious and boring here also.
Ya I have tried several times over the years to get into twitter, mastodon, etc. I hate it. Do not understand why it has any appeal.
I always find screenshots from apps confusing. Also I don’t use IG. What is the context of these text boxes? Who is “promoting” the posts? It sounds like an ad from the user who posted it, but the accompanying text says it is advertising Threads.
I notice that the image posted here and the one in the comments by @wolfshadowheart have the same content but the usernames are different. Are they mirror accounts?
