I kinda get all the Threads worries and the fact that some people might not be comfortable with Meta collecting their data for advertising. But this is just insane. It just makes me think people are just irrationally angry at everything, and they like being that, instead of informing themselves about what everything does.
Probably they just want to use the same app they're using for listening to music. Although I also have them both. And I love AntennaPod more for podcasts, plus there's no tracking, and it's just a different experience overall.
So the OPML file does handle the read status as well? isn't it just a format to export and import feeds inside a reader?
Well, those who did not vote are complacent to the majority vote. So I'd say that's a win.
Always go out there and vote, regardless of the option you choose. That's what keeps a democratic system up and running. If you don't, you just agree with what is decided by others and stay complacent.
I immediately thought about ChatGPT or some other AI assistant with GPT in its name as an alternative to Copilot, lol.
Can't they add some sort of vegetation or something and make sure it's watered as regularly as possible? Maybe something specific to the area (besides cactuses) that can keep more shade.
The best alternative to Rainmeter that is also cross-DE (Desktop Environment - i.e. you can use it on KDE, as well as Gnome, XFCE etc.) would be Conky.
Finally
This is the keyword for such a city. It should've gotten such a system already by now when reaching the first million. All these arab/middle eastern cities seem so extremely focused on car infrastructure to a rather disturbing degree. And all the carbrains I know think these cities are the pinacle of modern city development: all just gigantic glass skyscrapers and highways circling around them - nothing else.
Also, back on Facebook/Instagram, there's not a single person who had the money to visit Dubai once and post pictures from there (at least that I'm aware of), that is not car brained. I'm sure they all use their car everywhere and nothing less, they could even be doing their basic shopping from the corner store with it, I think.

This is a highly niche one in my native language as well, as one must also know what is colivă - it's basically a desert that we eat at funerals with m&m-sized candies in it as well. So it roughly translates let me stick my dick in your mother's coliva so hard that my balls jump from candy to candy
US-controlled and domiciled site - yes, but I do not see it having a monopoly on information at all. Sure is big, has lots of info, pages, it is a rather good resource in linking stuff to the various concepts that you want to explain others e.g. in an argument.
But the very fact that anyone can edit information makes it not recommendable in academia, for example (really, when I was a student, all my professors were generally not recommending it for information because, as one of them said, even grandma could edit it). So I don't think I would trust ibis on scientific articles either, at least not in the fields I'm directly interested in - maybe for some random trivia/did you know stuff, idk.
But this is where I think it would really shine, indeed, as one could make a wiki about a game or software more easily, probably link pages from different instances, etc. (as others said already).
Don't know what else to say, it just seems like an interesting project. Congrats to anyone involved on this first release and looking forward to see what this project will bring.
