Alex RussellThe tech press are 100% cooked. I double dog dare you to find any mention in any of the stories covering this that point out it there is an alternative to the App Store:
Would a web app be fully censorship resistant? No. But it wouldn't be a single point of failure like this.
.@404mediaco : no mention of web apps as an alternative
Bloomberg: same
Reuters: ditto
BI: you were expecting...what, exactly?...from BI?
The Verge: [ drooling sounds ]
NYT: [ copies The Verge's homework ]
Engadget: [ copies less prestigious outlet's homework ]
BBC: lolsob, but in British accent
Bloomberg: same slop, but at Bloomberg because you're at a terminal, I guess?
Cooked. Totally, absolutely, Tim levels of cooked.
Richard MacManus@slightlyoff I will be sure to mention it in my newsletter later today :) https://webtechnology.news/ #UnCooked #MinorTechPress
Joshua Graves@slightlyoff @404mediaco I was surprised at 404. I hope they come around. The rest? Not at all surprised
McNeely@slightlyoff @404mediaco wonderful descriptions of media coverage π
πππ£π€@slightlyoff as soon as I read this, I search my Fedi feed, and no doubt you already called it out! Obviously they already developed a significant API backend for thisβ¦ time to pivot to a universal web app on the front-end.
