no, it won’t, nor will xitter of facebook. it’s delusional to think multi-billion-dollar-platforms backed by big money, the content industry and several clandestine consortiums will cease operation because a single digit percentage of users decided that some hobbyist internet platforms held together by tape and a hail marry are the future. we’ll be lucky if places like this are still around in a few years.
just wait 5 years, the fediverse will either be dead or swallowed up by meta. the only two things it has to go for it is the decentralized nature and the absence of open advertisements.
True, but musk did block woods recently.
that’s pretty much the case for all celeb accounts tbqh
today’s fact is tomorrows hate crime saying it - beware!
hätten sie “schlammschieben im us-wahlkampf” übergetitelt, wäre es perfekt gewesen, aber neiiiin …
thank god i don’t believe in reincarnation - i can’t do this shit again!
@grafcube it’s very important to push back against google’s browser hegenomy just like we did back in the day with microsoft because now it’s not just about one company controllin the software to access the majority of the web but the privacy of it.
Seinfeld and the 2001-2003 episodes of the german „Harald Schmidt Show“. I’m somewhat of an humor reactionary.
“solved” in a sense of “who was he?”. i’ve followed this case for about 15 years and there were the wildest speculations about who he was and what he might have done for a living. at this point it’s - please don’t read this a cynical - a case of “local man committed suicide halb a century ago” and i doubt that there will be unearthed much about why he did it since not even his own relatives missed him.
@DebatableRaccoon afaik the problem is physical media and that it becomes unavailable/unplayable for several reasons.
it’s funny how the “when we were kids, whe didn’t even had a tv at home and we were happy”-routine from our grandparents moved up to “we watched the same episode on vhs on repeat!” now millennials are getting older.
i’m not big into that kind of conspiracy theories, but i’ll bet a months salary that the feds have been involved and it got horribly wrong.
yeah, it’s officially solved at this point.
streaming hit the wall the moment every corp wanted to make their own service to cut out netflix. the boom in streaming happend - at least in most parts of europe - because basically everything anyone wanted (even some hbo titles) had been on netflix for 10 eurobucks a month and now you have to sub at least three services for almost thrice the price each. and especially disney+ is complete trash if you’re not a marvel/star wars stockholm syndrome victim. now asking for even more in times of inflation and recession is a slap into the face of subscribers.
yeah, maybe, it will just keep staying under the radar and at some point someone will have to spend some cash to keep the lights on.
