Facebook is the worst non Nestle company out there, but exactly zero corporations can be classified as sheep. If Google starts sniffing around don't think they'll be any better.

If the fediverse can't survive meta it can't survive. If decentralization's Achilles heel is corporations then decentralization is not viable strategy in the current world and we should give up on it now.

Threads wasn't first, and it's going to be very very far from last. There is no escape from corporate interests in any g7 nation - other than being deemed too small to matter

I'm currently using my Lemmy account but I have a mas.to account also. Sometimes I like them being seperate, sometimes not.

I'm sure you know this, but for the benefit of folk who don't: Mastodon is about building your own "algorithm" by simply following the sort of stuff that you'd want to see while scrolling. The important thing to remember is you can follow stuff not just people. Search for a hashtag, for example, and you can follow that as if it were a Twitter user. But to really get the most of it you can expand out and follow other ActivityPub things like Lemmy communities, Pixelfed users/albums, Peertube, etc.

To answer your question: I find following things on mastodon is better for consumption than commenting when it comes to Lemmy/Kbin posts. Commenting directly on the post is easy and you see all the primary replies, but finding replies of replies (and further down) gets tedious fast. But I still follow the Lemmy community for my city and a couple meme heavy ones via my Mastodon account.

It's not easy to source expired carbon fiber and windows rated to 1/3rd of your target depth.

I was 12 when the first Linux kernel was released. Ah, what could have been...

If there are they are never enforced in the US. Court case after court case has sided with the scraper rather than the site. Though usually Facebook is the scrapee in these cases, not the scraper.

I used to work in real estate tech so I know a lot of efforts the US's National Association of Realtors has made to stop scrapers of RE data. Some where via the legal system, some tried to push the onus on us as paying consumers of their data. Not a single thing worked - if anything they may have invoked the Streisand effect once or twice and gotten more of their data scraped.

If the Fediverse can't survive Threads is can't survive period, and we should all just move on now.

You can just need to switch them between editble and read-only to save the hassle. But I have 14 on-going projects right now, it's a giant pain to keep within that limit.

Personally, I try to avoid reminders that my McNuggets were once a vat of pink flesh goo. The breading is an important factor in that.

I made the jump using youtube tutorials but it's been a few years so I don't remember which to recommend. One of the reasons I keep using fusion is that it's ability to move back and forth through design history so so well made it easier to overcome my early screw ups.
