Letterboxed is amazing! Anyone know an equivalent with TV series?

I’m usually on mobile when I’m listening to audio books. Is there an iOS app anyone would recommend? Music focused apps don’t really fit the use case

The editor so good people never learn to leave it.

No one needed a walk-through to sign up for Threads last week; that should be the goal IMO for any decentralized network to thrive. Being decentralized makes that inherently more difficult but I believe it’s a worthwhile goal.

I know it probably sounds insane but I think the Fediverse has more potential than a niche social network for the data conscious - but I think it needs to be accessible to fulfill that vision

I do think there’s lots of people who have something meaningful to say that can’t or won’t take the time to learn to navigate the Fediverse

Ads do suck and the whole industry is a hazard, but if another instance wants to run some and recoup server bills it doesn’t seem like my problem; I’ll find a new instance with a different financial model. If they inject ads into feeds I’d want them defederated; it all becomes a selling point to move to a different instance

I don’t think this will be a popular take but I think big companies joining the Fediverse has the potential to be a healthy thing. They’d have the resources to make it more viable to onboard the masses. This would grow the graph and the content pool.

Once onboarded, people can hear the gospel from us Fediverse-freaks and potentially migrate. The concept of finding and joining a federated instance won’t be so scary. The people that won’t migrate probably never were going to.

Will they be perfect citizens? Almost certainly not, but it doesn’t have to be all bad

Whaat if only there was some way we could’ve guess. I thought BofA was a standup org :(

Cool now I get to see this forever huh?

I bet literally any sleep after that much time awake feels amazing. Good fucken luck getting me up after though, waking up probably hurts until you’re rested by that point.
