Another point the article mentions: limited two-way interaction. Replies from the Fediverse are visible within the app, and you can now like replies. Early steps, still, but good to see.

It's a matter of surface area to somehow trigger the automated detection that kills an account. With 1Password, I can only really think of payment issues (ultimately, everything within your account is just a matter of sharing a binary

Terrifies me. I can't really piss 1Password off, so that'll never be a worry. My iCloud Email can at least be re-directed to Fastmail as I own the domain (other than Hide My Email, which is a shame).

Brave is genuinely impressive here in having their own index (granted, that’s the result of an acquisition rather than their own volition).

Man that would so awesome. The lack of control over what I'm actually sending the message on is annoying as hell on iPhone's. I want to explictly send and receive SMSes at points.

Did Valve re-render the "Meet the Spy" video for that gag in the article? Could you... pretty please do an official HD remastering of it? :)

This organization claims that they'll allow you to opt-out, but they haven't seemingly done so for the oldest request on their repository [0]. Pathetic. [0]: https://github.com/bigcode-project/opt-out-v2/

Isn’t this already the case? It’s probably still cheaper considering the inference costs.

Even more insidious on Twitter: actual user posts (videos specifically) being promoted into your feed, with no ad label. However, the actual ad (which is not particularly well disclosed) is the pre-roll ad on the video - the user post is ju

Folia is probably the most interesting on this list - it's a mod by the makers of PaperMC to parallelize Java Edition while still maintaining a working survival experience. It's best known for powering 2b2t, a anarchy server with

I'd vaguely extend that to "entertainment" Twitter. Possibly even, "popular and an audience that is more suspectible to scams/promotion".

UK from what I can tell is world leading on fast payments, having launched Faster Payments Service in 2008. (India is now there with UPI, and I hear Brazil is doing great too. The USA has started the process, although it’ll take some time.)

There is a, frankly insane episode of This American Life, where they take a look at one of the stories Alex tells about his childhood. The ending of it is remarkable: even though they are talking to people who know the story that Alex tells
