Thanks for explaining. I use group chats for IRL friends. It's strange that some prefer mastodon because of the twitter format. I suppose it's like private Facebook groups.

I like the sharp distinction between private stuff and searchable stuff. So it's good to have them as IM vs forum formats.

I just pictured Altman when I read "fight managers".

That's too many beaks for you to break. You'll have to wait 20 years for robotics to improve.

I see people buying $300 AR glasses as a portable monitor to watch porn comfortably while in bed.

Ironically, Zuck is all about FAIR now. Shouldn't it be MAIR now? :)

So you'll be breaking Altman's beak with a baseball bat?

Perhaps activitypub services can be viable as a service. I don't think so, but I hope I'm wrong.

It's similar to when factories got mechanized, and people were promised 2 day work weeks. In reality, the number of high paying jobs shrunk, and wages compressed. That's just the march of progress:)

What keeps your posse on discord?

It's available to anyone who pays. Not limited to nation states. I doesn't concern me much: $10M is out of reach of anyone I'll ever meet.

As it appears to me Mastodon is public like Twitter. I didn't know about private instances. Why use this format when there's chat rooms?

What subscriptions do you have?

Thanks, I'll take a look at misskey.

Have you tried NewPipe? YouTube changed the API a few times, and it broke for a day. Otherwise, it's excellent. I had trouble with Google Pay lately, which is really frustrating, I reverted to cash. No trouble with Chrome or Gmail on Android.

What does it say about you if you let idiots have power over you?
