Yes, you're relying on an offline inference device to make trigger choices. Basically "if brown, shoot" from what I gather.
It's sad we've come to this because nobody can afford an actual home.
Two different questions.
They are a gateway to federated material as any other (like Lemmy), and those controls are at the platform. They can gatekeep federated content very simply.
There is nothing stopping them from leaving it all open aside from costs though. Hosting is very expensive, and I'm not sure how they plan to support their platform aside from advertising, at which point you may be stuck in a spot where you shut down certain intersections to appease advertisers.
Anyone have the linked docs from the article? Looks like archive didn't get them in time.
There is a huge gap in there that you don't see though, and Salesforce profits greatly from it. Small and medium-sized businesses who hate using Salesforce, but premade alternatives aren't customizable for what they need. Throw some customization at it, and you get exactly what you want.
This is essentially how SF became big to begin with. It sucked so bad, people hired engineers to build their extensions on top of it because it had the option. A capable FOSS solution opens the door to people being dedicated hosts for it, as well as offering pluggable solutions.
I understand the converse on its success, just see an opportunity to do better with it.
Good. Hope it gets some traction.
