Checked in on the Forkiverse

/public/local == "Live Feed"

for the first time in a very, very long time

Months, probably

Clinging to 1,036 Active Viewers according to their own stats and according to mastodon.fediverse.observer

Still virtually no #Hashtag usage

Still no apparent participation with the outer #Mastodon / #Fediverse at large

Running on Mastodon v4.5.9 despite all the "forky" nonsense

It's a "fork" of nothing

ho hum...

The Forkiverse

Building a better internet with your friends from Hard Fork and Search Engine.

Spotted at a Späti (= kiosk) in Berlin today. After deleting TikTok, it seems candy can be an alternative to #Hardfork to stay informed about some of the trends over there. Especially if you wanna be as up-to-date as is appropriate for the old guy complaining about that crazy app that I aspire to be.

Very glad to see the #HardFork and SearchEngine podcast Fediverse community server continuing to thrive. So they are at 10,000 or so registered users, and hovering at a healthy 1.4 thousand of those as monthly active users. That tracks to normal rates on social.

And the conversations are active and growing....

Very glad to see the #HardFork and SearchEngine podcast Fediverse community the #Forkiverse server continuing to thrive. So they are at 10,000 or so registered users, and hovering at a healthy 1.4 thousand of those as monthly active users. That tracks to normal rates on social. And the conversations are active and growing. I think I underestimated the power of focused, topic-based server communities on the fediverse. 🧵 1/2
So @kevin and @Casey I’m listening to latest #hardfork where you ask what the AI companies could do to improve public standing. I think you already hit on it in the conversation: Currently, they publish toothless utopian white papers about theoretical “solutions” that will never fly in today’s politics, while lobbying against regulation and donating to conservative anti-regulation pols. How about heavily funding actual pro-regulation and UBI proposals and pols. I.e. put money where mouth is.

This conversation between Ezra Klein and Jack Clark of Anthropic is well worth your time.

Listening to the recent #Hardfork #podcast episode which featured a segment on the rise of AI slop taking over YouTube Kids with grotesque alphabet songs, I get to feel smug/grateful that my son is more into his Yoto player than screens. Here is one of his favourite songs to listen to, which is both funny and educational! @kevin @Casey

Crazy ABC's

AFAIK the terms 'soft fork' and 'hard fork' entered the lexicon from the crypto world, where they refer to software changes that split a blockchain into sub-chains. With a soft fork, the sub-chains remain interoperable. A hard fork makes them incompatible; what IRC greyhairs might call a 'netsplit'.

But AFAICT, these terms have since been repurposed by others to refer to something similar but different; 2 ways of forking any Free Code software project.

Just wondering... would it be a good business idea to stand up a human-made-content-only version of Youtube? ...Hutube?
