I like how completely lacking in bloat it feels.
I duel-boot, and I always sigh at how long it takes to boot Windows. Also when having to wade through generations of Windows settings which somehow still sit side-by-side.
Ernie SmithSo let me break down how things are going on the internet today:
- Twitter: Rate-limited
- Reddit: Third-party apps dead
- Pornhub: Effectively just got banned in my state because of a bad law
- Bluesky: Slow as molasses because everyone’s on a single server
- Twitch: Hear they’re having problems, too
- YouTube: Working OK but sudden questions about them, too
- Mastodon: Running perfectly
We can make this work.
Angelo Veltens 🏳️🌈Update: https://social.veltens.org/@angelo/110643298577042397 Now all #twitter t.co links are blocked by twitter login. All #links we ever shared via twitter can not be followed anymore without signing in to twitter, no matter where in the #WWW they point to. Twitter put a gate in front of our links by "shortening" them and now they locked the gate. We never should have given them such power. #gatedcommunities #fediverse #web

Ok, false alert, sorry! After double checking actually most t.co links are working and also the #twitter archive contains a field "expanded_url" with the full URL! So the situation is much better than I initially thought. Thanks for double checking and making me aware @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] et al. It is still a big risk, that twitter has the power to wall in those #links #gatedcommunities #fediverse #web
Michael BaconThis is amazing. Rick Astley has taken it on himself to start covering The Smiths songs because Morrissey is such an unholy piece of shit, and not only is it not bad it's good and also wholesome.
This is great because Morrissey let a lot of people down. And Rick Astley, well, he would never . . .
