The biggest problem with that approach is your team loses their roadmap, funding for new initiatives, and ambition while that's happening. Your sprint backlog has nothing but minor tech deficit tickets in it, and overall it becomes a chore to get anything done.

It's pretty funny to see someone in the wild who actually thinks because those were Communist countries, the persons in charge must have been 'Leftists'.
And damn those Leftists down in North Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee for growing all that tobacco using slave labor and then lobbying the government for the right to sell their product even though they knew it killed people!
115 comments and -320 karma. Stay woke guy, you'll get em next time for sure.
If I stayed awake at night thinking of the habits of stupid people, I'd never get any sleep.
Every time it's mentioned it's only about sending e-mail to different providers, but the analogy doesn't cover for example browsing your e-mail inbox and seeing communication from multiple sources. Just covering how one individual can send messages to multiple individuals via a common protocol is only half the picture.
Honestly it's more like the old mailing lists (Majordomo days), where individuals would subscribe to a list, but that list might also subscribe to other lists themselves, and then you throw a web interface in front of it.
I know you're using the e-mail analogy to represent how SMTP and ActivtyPub are a common protocol, but I've seen the same analogy mentioned several times and I think it only serves to muddy the waters, because it's incomplete.
I want kbin to be known as a network that is neutral and federates with all other instances, allowing users to decide what they wish to see.
There has to be a line though.
I'm not sure you understand how outsourcing works ...
Fuck u/spez, stay dark indefinitely.
Reddit is perfectly within it's rights - the 'community' are not the customer at all. They are there to be used... This 'FUCK YOU' pricing debacle is going along with the Twitter format - either make it profitable or let it die.
The community is the product, advertisers are the customer. All social media companies are the same in that regard.
It doesn't matter to me, let it die. All I needed was a link aggregator where I could read various opinions on what was going on, and the occasional meme/cute animal pic. I can get those anywhere. I don't need Reddit.
Do you think if the mobile Reddit apps stop working (the ones that are miles better than the official Reddit app), mobile users are going to flock to kbin/lemmy? Are there any good mobile apps? All the ones I could find are extremely alpha/beta quality.
now Twitter only comes up if Musk does something really, really, really stupid.
So... any day that ends in 'y'?
This will be one of the movies of all time.
