Happy #GlobalSwitchDay

Signal is not Fediverse! Element/Matrix is!

They are treated like letters because they arent instant, like letters. Hell, some emails could take full minutes to send.

Unpopular Opinion Lemmy and PeerTube logo look ugly.

[lazycog@sopuli.xyz]

Yeah.. I'm bit afraid of "kbin Ernest Effect" (not sure what a proper term is) where personal issues pile up and the sole head developer just disappears.

Haven't followed dansup much but from what I understand he is much more open to pull requests and listening to the community, but time will tell. Right now I appreciate and love his effort, giving, and the impact on fediverse he is brining.

The kickstarter was a good idea.

I think it's just the colours for the peertube one. I like that it's three individual play icons to signify the federation aspect, but the colours are just dull.

And that makes it a Facebook replacement how? Facebook is terrible and the only reason I ever go there is to check in on people I know. I don’t understand Friendica at all. I can get all the social interaction I need from Mastodon, BlueSky and Lemmy if my goal isn’t people I know and just like minded people.

[tiger@sh.itjust.works]

Yeah it’s an easy fix to update the colors, logo shape can remain.

[loganninefingers@lemmy.ca]

It could be but I find the android app buggy (this month I've been using bookwyrm, GR, Open Reads, and The Story Graph to compare them all and still nothing is as smooth as GR. Plus bookwyrm has no apple app. I love where Bookwyrm is going but right now the switch is not the best

Unpopular opinion: your opinion is not unpopular at all.

[batist@lemmy.world]

A LinkedIn alternative, anyone?

[majorhavoc@programming.dev]

Mastodon seems to be filling this niche (professional networking and job seeking) at the moment. I'm curious if something more targeted is emerging yet as well.

[majorhavoc@programming.dev]

Yeah. This guide is going to make some rounds in my peer group. I've got a lot of dissatisfied friends who just need an easy guide to remind them what to try. Very cool!

[i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk]

It doesn't have an app, how is it buggy?

[undaunted@discuss.tchncs.de]

Unfortunately, the switch from YouTube to PeerTube has not worked for me so far. I can't find a decent instance (not full of right-wing/conspiracy content) with interesting stuff that also allows me to make an account.

I wish Boost understood the collapsible spoilers.

On my client, it's all expanded and I see all the formatting characters. It looks/works great in a browser though.

[ubergeek@lemmy.today]

Element/matrix aren't part of the fediverse, either. It doesn't speak AP.

[aeronmelon@lemmy.world]

That person isn’t fucking around.

[batist@lemmy.world]

Good to hear. Just yesterday I decided to remove my LinkedIn account!

[souroak@lemmy.sdf.org]

Anyone on Loops? I tried signing up a few days ago, but the sign up page wasn't working. Now the landing page says they aren't accepting new users.

[jerkface@lemmy.ca]

sup is how I update my FreeBSD /usr/src tree! Twenty years ago.
