Bitcoin's "value" in USD terms has dropped ~20% in the last few days, so I'm not sure we can call it 'stable'

This is like saying "laws aren't always enforced equally, so we should have no laws whatsoever". Bitcoin is not a helpful response.

normalizing scams, by laundering their image via standards organizations, pollutes our communications environment. Both an emoji and a petition are symbolic - and our symbols are in fact important.

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

True bitcoiners 🤝 no-coiners "Bitcoin should be illegal"

Is there a reason you seem to be upset by this piece? This is a forum for discussion about the Fediverse. Seems entirely appropriate to me.

This may be true of your own experience on Lemmy, but on microblogging software such as Mastodon it is most definitely not the case.

Thanks, just subscribed, will x-post :)

+1 for yabridge.

Bitwig is a great DAW (but not FOSS unfortunately). I run that on Manjaro, although Mint or Ubuntu are probably perfectly good choices too, if I had to guess.

Low bandwidth mode - what a great idea, thanks for pointing it out!

Thanks! Yeah tbh the gemlog is really just a mirror of the blog, but for the record it's gemini://gemini.patatas.ca

I hear you on this - Akkoma does this by default, but the issue there is, let's say someone on a tiny server posts an image, even a relatively small one - if it gets boosted by an account with 10k followers, that small server will effectively get DDOSed, assuming enough of those clients are online.
