  I used to be able to talk friends on AIM, Yahoo, and Messenger all through Pidgin too. "There's an old saying in Tennessee—I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee—that says, 'Fool me once, shame on...shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again.'"

    It's kinda funny how Bush's fans back then tried to justify this, saying he was self-aware enough to dodge saying 'Shame on me' on tape. They thought he was trying to avoid giving his opponents some campaign ad material. Given the one being defended, I'm not so sure.

  Meta mentioned ActivityPub/Fediverse support but I'll believe it when I see it. Maybe it's the cynic in me but I think Meta will just implement a tiny portion of the spec that benefits them (importing posts from Mastodon?) and then stall there.
