Some of those trucks are quite high and will kill pedestrians and even destroy other cars more in higher number. It’s just physics. If you need it, fine, but seeing how much they are selling of those, a lot of us are starting to doubt how

Seeing how the Covid vaccine is measurably saving lives and how the republicans managed to make it a political issue and a matter of “personal choice”, you can be sure there are no chances of that happening. The period of doing things for t

The idea is that you would subscribe to hashtags to see what people talk about. Or you can go in "Local"/"Federated" and you see what people talk about in your instance or within their network. But it's all chr

I don't quite understand your point. Is that within the context of Meta wanting to ingest data from Mastodon in order to train their AI or whatever data they want to ingest? Of course they can do that, setup their own instance or their

Pro-musks activists keep telling us it’s no big deal but how exactly is it better for users to kick them all out of tweetdeck and force them to pay for twitter blue? More and more accounts are getting off the twitter bandwagon. Clearly it h

You’re being obtuse. You were able to access those news for free. Without any account. Once you had a radio or a tv, it was free and accessible for everyone. Not the same for Facebook or Twitter. Even if technically free, you can be banned,

They are typically ahead of the curve when it comes to accessibility feature on iOS. It's very well possible they will have Accessibility options to offer alternatives to those.

Not sure about Lemmy. But for mastodon, there’s an incredibly high amount of servers to federate and keep a connection with. Then add all the storage for all the content being created. I can imagine it being heavy.
