I don’t know what you mean by Wayland not being ready for general adoption. I’ve been using it on Fedora for a year now with no issues whatsoever.

Might be a Hyprland issue instead of Wayland, as I remember from the time I tried out Hyprland.

I agree with the Fedora recommendation. Just a all round great experience.

Fedora is my recommendation of choice. The default Fedora + Gnome workflow out of the box is absolutely flawless.

I would love Mastodon with Lemmy/Reddit-ish sorting. Purely chronological feed means I get low quality content at the top of my feed simply because someone posted something 2s with a hashtag I follow.

It is a lot faster and cleaner. Just my opinion, it’s an improvement over the laggy mess of a website they have right now with bloated JavaScript.

Anyways, have a good one.

I actually really like the redesign. It looks very modern to me, and the website feels a great deal more responsive.

The article says 80 percent of the users left. If you had more context, you would have got what I said.

And 80 percent of over 100 million users is still 20-30m active users.

What’s the alternative?

Couldn’t agree more.

If they embrace ActivityPub and then start adding their own proprietary features that are enough for users to switch over, and Mastodon doesn’t, then it’s not an “evil agenda”, it’s Meta adding an essential feature that the users want and Mastodon isn’t able to add and ultimately Meta making a better product.

If Mastodon or Lemmy are truly superior and the future, then the product should be the best in the market, not DUE to federation but DESPITE it.

That’s one thing that everyone here forgets because right now federation is hard to get into, and the only people here are those who put the effort in because they believe in federation. That is the reason for their tolerance in an inferior product. But if that’s the case, then it will never be mainstream as long as the product is inferior.

The entire point of ActivityPub is that it’s open and EEE-proof. If the users leave it for something proprietary but better, then it isn’t EEE, it’s just a better product.

Simply being open source is not an achievement in itself. The platform has to be user friendly, stable and future-proof. Most FOSS and federated alternatives create a platform and then endlessly harp on federation like that’s the end. No, that’s the beginning. The point is to make a product better than Big Tech WHILE maintaining federation and Foss status. THAT is what makes a platform EEE proof.

The sanest comment here.

It doesn’t have an algorithm and isn’t cross platform.
