thinking that leaving capitalism is beating capitalism ha

Heres how the cycle of abuse toward me goes.

Someone builds a thing to give themselves power.

I point out the nascent hierarchic structure being formed and its bad purposes

The people running it attack me for shit i havent done.

The people under them join in.

Time passes.

Eventually everything i said about the leaders comes to pass.

Rinse repeat. Everyone forgets but me.

The marketization of Attention which @petercoffin often talks about is a good example of Late Stage Capitalism attempting to innovate a new way to solve the contradictions in capitalism. Workers can't afford to buy the product of their own labor; so create ways to profit without workers spending any money at all! Turn the customers into the products. Another example is the profit model of make something, give it away for free, get huge "potential for profit", then get bought by a big company (see: tumblr)

I'll say this: the centrists could really benefit from being on a social network with no algorithms.

I'll also say this: I have tried and failed to explain a federated social network to a few I talk to. It's really a foreign concept to them and I'm not sure they will actually stay here.

my next vid changed so much as I am making it

I turned down the resolution on my phone and the battery is night and day.

Why is there a resolution option on my phone? I cannot tell the difference except now my battery is decent.

@MnemonicLight @petercoffin I think people trying to pitch it as a 1:1 Twitter replacement are wrong, but only because they're equivocating without realizing it. What they mean is that Mastodon is like Old Twitter, the place where you talk to your friends and see what's up with their day.

It's radically different from New Twitter, the "news" app where you consume viral Content(tm) and current events and discourse until you're depressed.

Mastodon is more like an evolution of email.
