What if instances could be tagged with their focus?

Then during an app user creation they could click a few "topics" and narrow down the choices to a much shorter list including member counts?

And the choice is what matters.

I had a minidisc for years. Quickly got replaced by chip based MP3 players.

I still liked my discs because I could swap and play more music.

If social media becomes decentralized we might even gain traction reversing some of the brainwashing on the masses. The current giants are just propaganda machines. Always have been, but it's now blatant and obvious. They don't even care to hide it.

Yeah this just sounds like compliance with the media making it seem like a protest for clicks...

The bad rep that China gets for making shit is mass produced knock off shit.

A company can have manufacturing in China with good quality control and come out OK.

One example to take this with a grain of salt. I got a Omega Mastocating juicer (it crushes instead of shreds). They usually manufacture in the USA. Came out with a cheaper model built in China. Guess what? The locking ring started snapping on loads of them. The part is under loads of pressure so it needs to be build to spec. The Chinese factory was trying to save money by remelting the leftover plastic into the parts. Weakening the part.

Omega issued a recall. Set a policy to stop cutting that corner. Basically fixed the issue.

I mean. It's on a manager to save money so he was doing his job. Same shit would happen in the states. Still adds to the bad rep. Omega stepped up and made the right move to fix it. Rep really comes down to the company.

Yep

Warning: This becomes a rabbit hole very quickly because there are so many items to cover. I’m not going to breadcrumb you. I want to provide you with everything, which means we have to start from the BEGINNING!

It also supports ripping playlists. Fantastic to archive a set locally...

Fixed. copyright*

Not to mention patent laws are bullshit.

There are law offices that exist specifically to fuck with people over patent and copyright law.

There's also cases where people use copyright and patent law to hold us back. I can't find the article but some religious jerk patented connecting a sex toy to a computer via USB. Thankfully someone got around this law with bluetooth and cell phones. Otherwise I imagine the camgirl and LDR market for toys would've been hit with products 10 years sooner.

Definitely missing documentation to make it a proper repo
