NGL, this is the kind of joke made by someone who got upset that people don't find their jokes funny. Real principal Skinner shit.

Musk put the drive selector on the cyber truck on the roof so that you gave to heil whenever you put it into drive

You sunnuva bitch

I agree but I think that that actually enforcing it will be even harder than enforcing the existing income and capital gains taxes. We should still try, but we should spread our net wider.

That graph is getting dangerously close to becoming a political meme, given current events

They remind them of the only part of math they liked

Beans? Look here youngin

You're being intentionally obstinate. You keep implying that you can't host your own relay, to which many PDSs (that also link to other relays) can't link.

With bluesky, people choose what federations to join by selecting which relays their PDSs will join.

The analogy of geopolitical federation is cute, but that's an analogy, it's not actually what federation is when talking about technology. You seem upset that bluesky achieves federation with a different architecture, and idk why you'd be upset about that, or even care

It's not Fediverse™ because it's not activitypub.
But that doesn't make it not federated

Just because it uses a different mechanism to achieve federation you're going to say that it doesn't count as federation? That's wild.

PDSs get federated by relays.
You can have multiple relays which means you have multiple federations. This is similar to how the Fediverse ends up with pockets completely defederated from each other.
Except that a PDS can be in multiple relays (federations) which the Fediverse can't do.

You're right that currently there is no meaningful federation because there is only one relay, and it's a problem that the cost is so prohibitive. But to say that it isn't a Fediverse is kinda disingenuous.

I don't think so?

But a single PDSs can talk to multiple relays.
And I think an app view can talk to multiple relays (or at least switch between them)

I see this as an absolute win
