> The ability to opt-out of quote posts is also currently planned, which makes it that Mastodon’s implementation will not be compatible with other fediverse implementations of quote posting.
Not surprising. Even before ActivityPub was announced, when the #fediverse was still powered by #OStatus, Mastodon was already breaking compatibility. There were countless of heated debates about almost every Mastodon-only “feature” they implemented that all other Fediverse devs were _forced_ to implement.
And here we are with yet another.
I wonder what will supporters of opt-out or anti-quotepost camp will do if the other Fediverse devs ignore this Mastodon-only “feature”, and just continue with the common implementation of quote posts? Are we going to see a new reason for “fediblock”, and finally fragment the Fediverse network?
@slazer2au Apologies! In any case, updated and moved the inline tags down.
@vasus It is!
And apologies, hashtags are important in the fediverse. _
Hmm… what I can do next time is to not use inline hashtags, and just have it in a separate line. Thank you for the feedback!
@trashgirlfriend I remembered, #Walkr, a space gamification fitness app, have an option to “boost” steps when you’re about to go on a long walk/run/jumping rope session. You can use it once every 24 hours only (and only lasts for 2 hours IIRC).
I think, now that you suggested it, that was maybe their solution to keeping the sensitivity fixed for their game, but giving users a chance to earn more if they’re about to engage in a long session.
🤔
@trashgirlfriend Ooh. I like that! It could be a widget too for easy access.
@hornedfiend @schamppu I think the game is set to medium sensitivity, or Low. There are some fitness apps with a sensitivity setting, and if you place it high, it is more accurate. The problem arises if you’re just moving your phone, since it’s high sensitivity, it counts those as steps. So, most apps have it at medium or Low. That’s my guess at least.
@commander_la_freak @emeralddawn45
That’s a new way to explain it, “frame rate”.
Most #scifi that touches on #ParallelWorlds and #TimeTravel use some sort of vibration or frequency. Even in the 90s Japanese #anime entitled #SerialExperimentsLain, it used the Schumann resonance to explain its plot. And of course in #Marvel and #DC they do the same.
But, yeah, I’m not sure either about it. Is there a way to find out which author/writer first thought of this idea? Or, was it based on a real-life theory that scifi authors picked-up independently? Or, was it Star Trek that created this approach?
(And again, that frame rate approach is great. _)
The way they used #QuantumEntanglement in S03E01 of #LaBrea was a very good one. I haven’t seen that in other #timetravel #scifi.
But, were not Discovery’s computers upgraded to Quantum computers? So, it should have a capability to communicate using quantum entanglement and not subspace?

@Lunar Ahh! Fable, Fallout, and Witcher! I miss those too. Hmm, I think they’re on winter sale, I might be able to grab them as well. _;;
Yep, it is weird. There are strict guidelines for franchises. Sadly, I can’t find it anymore. But, it makes sense as an explanation why some stores have small chicken (like last week, a certain store along Kalaw their chicken obviously came from a small breed; not the big breed Jollibee is known for); even though there isn’t a reported chicken supply problem this year.
Or maybe, franchises have an option to order the big or small chicken breed from JFC? The small chicken breed is cheaper? But still, it’s a question why JFC doesn’t have the same breed of chicken across all stores in the Philippines, or even within NCR.
Like what I mentioned earlier, minsan na lang ako kumain sa labas, maliit na manok pa yung sa branch na 'yun.
That I’m not sure. I only recalled reading how franchise stores basically have more freedom, and they have an option to choose their own source (for example chicken) as long as they use the same recipe and pass HQ’s quality tests.
Since then, whenever the chicken is smaller, I assume it’s a franchise store that decided to source independently. Because the ones that come directly from JFC are from big chickens.
I guess the best way is to ask.
Hmm… that gave me an idea, track and mark branches that are franchises and have small chickens. _;;
@heliosef Ito? https://twitter.com/kippschickenph
Haha, I will try it! _
@heliosef Ganito siya lumabas (attached screenshot).
But, yeah, mamantika nga. Ginagawa ko, lagyan gravy.
Although if there are more options, Uncle John’s chicken and KFC Philippines chicken are better.
Uncle John’s chicken, it’s crispier, less grease, and consistently big. Sa Jollibee, if it’s a franchise store it’s small; but if it’s handled by JFC itself, it’s big.
While the chicken of KFC Philippines is soft and tastier, on the medium size.
Hmm… Mang Inasal too? Still, I’ll pick Uncle John’s or KFC Philippines over Jollibee and Mang Inasal.
Hmm… There is a misconception on what the #Fediverse is and what is the goal, which unfortunately is what the press are telling people.
The Fediverse is about bringing down the walls (silos / walled-garden).
It never had the goal or objective or vision to replace Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram, Flickr, Blogspot.
The Fediverse software available today are the materialised ideas of developers who believe in a federated SocialWeb, which by the way, is the original #Web3 (not crypto). It goes all the way back to 2005 (probably earlier, I don’t have my notes).
The goal was to get existing silos to open up and federate.
It just that, there are more developers who are excited about it, so we started to see serious projects related to the Fediverse. If I remember correctly, Misskey was not a Fediverse project when it first started. So, one would say Misskey was the first non-federation project that joined the fediverse network.
If these silos don’t federate, it’s fine too, because there are existing software and instances available.
And it has always been about choice.
If users want to stay with silo #SNS by all means. The fediverse is not here to replace them, the fediverse is here as an option and as a solution to the issues plaguing silo networks (like ads, privacy, content license, to mention a few).
That’s what the fediverse is about and always have been to this day. It is never about replacing this and that, or recruiting people to switch over and encourage them to delete their silo SNS accounts. These other things were simply the passion and convictions of the users who migrated and some of the developers who developed fediverse software, it’s not part of the fediverse itself.
It’s just a protocol. Again, I’ll use email here. If you have a server, you can choose to install your own email software. The protocol is there. Various email software are there. OR, you can just use Yandex or Gmail or Zoho and use the custom domain feature (or use their email hosting services).
If Twitter and Facebook implement the protocol, hooray! Mission accomplished. If they don’t, that’s fine either.
So, yeah, people are hating that Instagram will implement the #ActivityPub protocol and join the #Fediverse network. They have valid reasons and it is understandable. However, the fediverse started to be a #WebStandard protocol to allow federation and bring back the #SocialWeb as it was intended to be.
For us who were there in 2005 already, and when the first Fediverse software and instance came online in 2008, that is still our vision and goal, to bring down the walls of silo SNS.
Do not recommend one software and/or one instance.
Using your scenario, would you recommend photography instances based on #Mastodon knowing Mastodon only allows up to 4 “attached” images? Not only that, Mastodon will only display 4 images even if there are more than that?
Or, are you going to recommend #Pixelfed designed for images. Or, maybe #Firefish, #Friendica, #Hubzilla, #Streams, which all allow more than 4 images and will display all the images even if it exceeds their software’s attach limit?
Quite frankly, in my opinion, with the image display alone, Mastodon is highly not recommended. So, the number of users and instances Mastodon have does not make it the best #Fediverse software, as you have mentioned earlier, “Mastodon is the level of UX other projects should aim to”. It’s not.
The best approach is we understand what the user needs and suggest to them the appropriate software and instances that will suit their needs.
Let’s forget about the Fediverse for a while.
We have to remember that not everyone is on Twitter or Facebook. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of individuals who only have an Instagram account. Why? They don’t need Twitter and Facebook.
In Korea, for example, they have their own culture and platforms for communication Twitter/Facebook-like, so they don’t need those. But many of them have Instagram accounts.
Now, let’s go back to the Fediverse.
If those are the users we are reaching out to, then there should be no problem recommending Pixelfed. Because for these target market, their only concern and type of use is to share, well, photos or their latest digital artwork. They don’t care about a Twitter/Facebook-like experience or use.
That brings us back to the features of #ActivityPub. It is an “added benefit”.
Okay, you can’t do this with #Lemmy, the last time I checked, however, you can do it with #Kbin. That’s a Lemmy limitation, not the fediverse.
(Extra: You can actually turn Pixelfed into a regular Twitter-like software if you are using the web UI. Although, last time I heard it will be removed eventually.)
(Extra 2: BookWyrm also allows Twitter-like feeds and interaction, it’s not restricted to just books.)
@vk6flab@lemmy.radio That’s a very good question! Sadly, I haven’t received the update on Android yet. T_T
Good thing you mentioned it, I’ll pay attention to that once I get the latest beta update from our region.
