Any source for that or is it just preemptive cynicism?

No idea if this can be secure in any reasonable way, but one way communication based on cheap devices and available frequencies could be quite attractive for activist mass mobilisations, or disaster releasee 🤔

Would that factor in the [unknown] costs of that revenue? Running all the servers (incl youtube), offices and staff aint cheap. So more likely some is paying enough to leave 23USD on top of massive costs.

I’m quite disappointed thats not the theme of this article, and my evening is ruined.

Outrageous. Time to pack her up and head for a obligatory 5 day family rave.

“Basically, we’re in the process of replacing our whole social back-end with ActivityPub,” says Flipboard CEO Mike McCue. “I think Flipboard is going to be the first mainstream consumer service that existed in a walled garden that switches over to ActivityPub.”

OK, that sounds good.

Knew about it but first time I bothered to read it and there is a bit more than just that, but hard to tell if there’s any strong commitment. Have to wait and see I guess. Thanks for that link.

I just did and my lemmy instance doesn’t work on it, so that was a fast test. Also opening up new windows instead of tabs/bars kinda kills the idea for me. Still a single integrated piece of software to manage all of these funky protocol streams seems like an attractive concept.

I still have a lot of love for Mozilla, maybe since I’ve started using… Mozilla and even some of the recent steps of the management did not change that. But it would seem doing something like idk - integrating Fediverse elements into the browser, or pushing the concept further in some other way would be a bigger step forward, than launching an instance. Still good, sounds like a no-brainer to have one for staff/supporters, but does not push this concept as far as Mozilla has the potential to. Unless that’s an element of some bigger plan I’ve missed?

Seems to be a pretty hardcore place;

Its an industrial lockout so classically you either organize and strike even harder or burn down the capitalist pigs factory.
