I still feel like they seem to be building a bit too much hype to what’s going to be just another type of social media in the fediverse with scarce posts made by almost exclusively tech enthusiasts

More like AITA

Wake me up when they finally bring up the UI to modern standards

Its great, I’d argue its main downfall (lack of popularity) stems a lot from the fact they don’t have any form of API like Wikipedia does. They can’t even agree on a single logo. Otherwise its a great resource.

Same with people believing all vtubers are AI chatbots or, to a lesser extent, that all female vtubers are just men with voice changers.

Like a minute or two of looking up either on any search engine would clear things up. But hell if it does show how little the average internet user seems to know about AI or audio editing. A lot of people seem to think technology is just straight up magic.

FairEmail design looks modern. Its just ugly and way too busy

Like that one MatPat picture he started using as his avatar, so much so that he looks photoshopped into the real picture now.

If this is how I fall into the vtuber rabbit hole I swear to god

…aren’t they like at risk of disappearing since their google search deal is being called into question?

So you’re telling me a quick and easy way to leave a mark on the internet forever is to post a picture of my shit? Better get those laxatives ready

They also originated loot boxes (TF2)

I just found a video of this girl’s mom roasting her in front of her audience and now this. OK I accept the divine sign, I will watch this vtuber.

Honestly if anyone gives them their money at this point. That’s on them.

Its the absolute lack of algorithm. No, really. I know Mastodon toots it as a feature, but without an algorithm to keep people scrolling most people just close the app and do something else. People who don’t understand instances would just go to mastodon.social anyway, but since no mastodon instance is actively trying to keep its users engaged 24/7, people naturally realize they have better things to do than to use social media all say.

Which is better for humanity, but bad for retention.

Damn this unearthed some memories, gotta check their channels out later

Isn’t iOS Firefox just a Safari reskin? Why wouldn’t it work there

This implies excel stands for extraordinary cellibate

Why is the preview pic two politicians kissing aggresively

IIRC wasn’t it also cause the higher ups cheaped out on personnel and hired a bunch of people who didn’t speak proper Italian, let alone the same language, to man the boat?
