What type of feature, and how would they prevent other projects? I'm happy that there's a non-algorithmic feed in a Meta app. I think that's good for society.

I'm happy that there's a non-algorithmic feed in a Meta app. I think that's good for society.
I'm not focused on how this means Meta will be the fediverse overlord in the future, once they release some fediverse-killing feature. When that time comes, I'll be sure to rally against it.
- jdenning 1y agoI'm quite sure they'll think of something. I don't think most people could have predicted that apple using an "ugly" color to represent non-iOS messages would have such a strong effect. But apple knew, and they were right. Edit: To be fair - "extinguish" is not entirely accurate..RSS, IRC, etc still exist - they're just ghost towns.
- irelephant 1y agoRSS is far from a ghost town. Almost everything supports it still, its just not used by many people.
- jdenning 1y agoIt just occurred to me - post your fediverse content via thread and get preferred placement in the "neutral" feed. Boom.
- qualeed 1y agoOkay, if they do that, I'll be sure to say "that sucks". Until then, I'll be happy that millions of people can get non-algoirthmic feeds.
