I swear, I'm seeing the western equivalent of wumaos servicing Meta here. Only at least the wumaos got paid; it made sense. These idiots are doing the labour for free!

I'm pretty sure that 99.44% of nostr is cryptobros.
Matrix [...] has a kind of rough UX and, IIRC resource-intensive server software. We should work toward improving that.
Except that I get the vibes from the Matrix community that the shit UX is part of the attraction because it does a wonderful job of gatekeeping.
I don't hold out much hope for Matrix working out ever, but perhaps someday someone will use it as inspiration for making something that doesn't suck.
...evolve to something like what nostr is doing.
Giving places for cryptobros to wank without being pointed at and laughed at by their betters?
An "obvious" typo you missed when you wrote it. When you read it back after posting. In a post where you were putting on airs of being smarter than everybody.
I fucking love it when that happens and love to rub it in.
"Jeffrey doesn't always eat people. Just sometimes. We should totally go clubbing with him and spurn him later if he eats one of us."
You understand that no matter how much you kneel down to service Meta, Zuck the Fuck won't be trickling anything down on you that isn't a bodily fluid, right?
And hey, I'm not going to kink-shame. Just pointing out that if that isn't your specific kink, you might want to wake up to there being zero dollars trickling down to you.
"Yes, Jeffrey has, in the past, killed and eaten gay men. But we should wait and see. It's impolite not to invite him to the party!"
It will always be ... a name that doesn't exist and has never existed?
(Hint: BURMA. It's hard to sound smart when you can't even get a single fucking name right! Especially the name that "it will always be" for you. Holy fucking shit!)
You know, you have access to search engines too. You don't need to be lazy and treat the rest of the Internet as your personal stenographer/research assistant.
Fucking HELL, despite how increasingly easy it is to find information, it cannot keep pace with just how utterly fucking lazy people are getting.
There was an interesting paired poll done, asking about federation with Threads and federation with Tumblr.
66% of people were wary of or actively opposed federating with Threads. Fewer than 20% were wary of or actively opposed federating with Tumblr.
It's not "defederate from every corporate player". It's passing this message on to Meta:
I love¹ telepathic people who can read other people's minds and post on their behalf.
¹ This is sarcasm. I hate the delusional who think they're telepaths.
