Threads is automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed
  • I really valued twitter for the ability of an individual person or groups of people to share their experiences of world events happening in real time. This is less about following individual people and more about being able to get meaningful analytics out of the mass of posts in order to spotlight "things" -- a political movement, an earthquake, a lawyer who cant turn off zoom filters -- whatever. But, it did always have a lot of noise. I usually ended up there when somebody linked to a post.

  • Can you give more I go on what you think will happen instead? I don't doubt it's naive, but it was my first impression. However, trying to extend skepticism to this, I guess the scenario is that threads federates, uses existing community to grow, becomes significantly larger, then starts creating proprietary protocols to draw users to its own app then enshittifies it.

  • "Things Are Looking Up"
  • I like the color choice. There is a spot where it looks like there is some shade (on the wing/flag on the left hand side) causing an impression of depth in the yellow area. I'd really like to see more of that.

  • Nike Run Club app for Cycling?

    I'm a big fan of the NRC guided runs, and have been using them for a few years now. However, I've hurt my knee, so I am switching to cycling indoors to stay active.

    I really like the guided runs because it adds a huge variety to my workouts, and I get to learn about running and learn about my body while staying active. I like something similar with cycling workouts. Does anybody know of anything?

    Google has replaced the Google Assistant app on Android with Gemini by default
  • I need a degoogle wiki to all me through all the things I can do to degoogle and what conveniences I might loose and potential workarounds for them. E.g. I spent a few hours getting rid of chrome, but then found out that if I want to use maps from my home screen, I can't use the search bar and I need another button on my homescreen. Also, apparently I use the images tab on Google often, and ddg doesn't have an images filter.

    So anyway, without good replacements for my typical workflow, I end up just adding inconvenience and still falling back on the old workflows when I can't figure out how to get what I need degoogled.

  • Reddit has reportedly signed over its content to train AI models
  • Somebody asked chat GPT to appear to be a normal internet user to populate the comments section to manufacture content for normal Internet users to respond to so that they can continue building up their training models.

  • Another Taylor Swift meme being delivered.
  • You're right that the word "world" is often used to represent different scales in different contexts. Some scales may be larger than our planet, and some may be smaller. The context is very important to interpret the meaning. "The world of I sects" might be a science documentary about small scale nature and the life spans of bugs. World building is a phrase often applies to fantasy/sci-fi/fiction novels or collaborative games where there is an effort to build a rich description of reality that arises from a set of initial assumptions/conditions that differ from our own reality. The scope of that may be much larger or much smaller than a single planet. The word really does have a lot of uses, and the context is really necessary to understand the meaning.

    In the case of this image, for me at least, "out of this world" evokes a cliche elementary valentines or A+ style sticker on a school assignment that has a picture of a rocket ship with the phrase, "you're outta this world". If you received such a sticker in elementary school, you knew you did a good job. In that reading, the OP is cleverly telling the original meme creator that they have done a good job with the meme.
