@cypherpunks I’ve got the feeling as if the author doesn’t know about the existence of relay servers. With them, also a single user instance works really fine, I think.

@Powderhorn In our company, we have theoretically had a “one day at home per week” rule for several months now. In practice, people usually work about 3 days a week at home. This is partly due to the fact that there is a works council agreement for some of my colleagues that is binding and can’t be overruled by management (thanks for German labor law!).
@interdimensionalmeme There are different opinions about this. And luckily people can chose networks according to their specific opinions.
@catculation I guess that he was totally happy, when nearly 9,000 workers (out of 12,500) at his factory in Germany voted for a new works council. I’m convinced that he didn’t knew about German labour rights - now he does 😀
@Mysteriarch I deeply hope that there will be some connection to Matrix in the future.
@aberrate_junior_beatnik @penquin I found a nice page with statistics about the different messengers: engage.sinch.com/blog/most-pop…
It seems that only in the US more people are using iMessage than WhatsApp.
@leraje @muntedcrocodile The architecture of their protocol is highly incompatible with the way ActivityPub works.
With their protocol you have got the PDS (Personal Data Storage) that stores your data. Your handle is a hostname, but normally it will not be the hostname of your PDS. In fact you can use any hostname that you have control of. Your account itself is described via the DID that will never change - and that doesn’t contain a hostname. This means that you can move between different PDS without people noticing it at all.
In ActivityPub the data storage is on the same host like your handle and your account’s URL will always point to the host where your data is located. Moving your account is by far not as smooth and highly depends on the system that you are on.
@FiskFisk33 @remotelove Yeah, I find it rather interesting, that DMC was able to built a car that had none of the issues more than 40 years ago - which means that it is a doable task. So Tesla simply ignored it.
@hedge Will be interesting to see, if there will be other servers, so that it really will be decentralized.
@alyaza I have to think of Bluesky, which is also a PBLLC and they took external money. We will see how this will develop.
@throws_lemy Hyperloop is a solution for a non existing problem. There are already fast landline based systems. You can go really fast on rails (see Japan) or you can use a maglev.
@zepfhyr Elon is a person that is very susceptible for conspiracies that fit his world view and he propagates it loudly. Peter Thiel always stays in the background and acts from there.
@Moonrise2473 @sirdorius Well, Elon is evil by accident. Peter Thiel is evil by intention.
@0x4E4F Yeah, see the Wikipedia article about “Metallicity”.

@BlessedDog So, what should I ignore?
