Pretty sure they're on TikTok, and not Threads.

Right, but what this will end up doing is effectively creating two distinct Fediverses; one with Meta and all the users, and one that will sequester themselves off to an even smaller corner of the internet than before. That's not a healthy outcome. And if all the EEE(E?) rants and ravings people have been posting lately are to be believed, that'll only make these smaller communities even less able to resist Meta's influence.

What an absurd headline.

EDIT: And "AI" was only mentioned a single time in the article.

The biggest names in laptops showed up to CES this week with new designs, new chips, and usually some way to sneak in the term “AI.”

The biggest names in tech reporting apparently showed up to the internet this week with some way to sneak the term "AI" into their headlines. Fuck you, Wes Davis.

Okay, but what sort of material would you expect to actually see on your timeline in this scenario?

With ActivityPub, Meta is playing on our turf. They don't have home field advantage here. ActivityPub isn't a protocol that they control.

What sort of "Meta shit" would you possibly expect to appear on your timeline?

I'm not so sure that this sort of divisive policy is healthy for the Fediverse. ActivityPub is meant to connect communities, not split them apart. I feel like this is just going to cause even more fragmentation at a time when ActivityPub can really be showing off its capabilities.

I imagine this would dissuade further adoption by other communities.

I think you greatly underestimate how large of a platform Twitch truly is. They have over thirty million daily active users.

Damn, I hope it comes back. Bash was one of the greatest monuments to internet history.

I used to work with a guy who spent several thousand dollars on ships, most of which were scheduled for release 3+ years away from when he gave up the money. I think he still hasn't received some of them yet, but for some reason he keeps preordering even more ships. I would not be surprised if he spent $10k on this game already.

The admin drinks a lot of water.

Okay, you fix the software, then.
