Right wingers

Its funny how they spent so long trying to break their way into twitter to force everyone to deal with them that someone had to buy the site to make it happen. Once they did they started gloating, "now you're stuck here with me," and when people left to bluesky they went "wait you cant do that"

But like... did this really happen? I never followed any RW accounts and haven't checked Twitter in a couple of months, so not sure what I've missed

They need us more then we need them

Especially since we don't need them at all.
- You don't know that, maybe someday we'll have a need to get rid of an excessive bleach. Then we'll be thankful for them.
Who cares? They are sewer stench, and should be dealt with accordingly.

I still wish bluesky was activpub compatable tho.

Same, but they're two very different animals, I think.
Bluesky's protocol, ATProto, was designed for rapid growth via centralized architecture (a few very expensive nodes) while ActivityPub (e.g. Mastodon or Lemmy) was designed with decentralized architecture (many inexpensive nodes). ActivityPub is less expensive since a message you send is treated like email in that only your home server and the recipient's home server must see the message; whether other people see it depends on who follows and/or replies to whom and who is blocked by who. In contrast, a Bluesky message you send is treated like a radio broadcast: by default, your message is publicly transmitted to every server without regard to who follows or blocks whom. Therefore, the minimum storage and bandwidth costs scale very differently: an ActivityPub server scales as a function of how many accounts its own users follow have while an ATProto server scales as a function of how many total users exist globally.
The benefit of centralization is the ability to reliably and quickly convey messages from all users to all other users by simply storing all messages then filtering through them when a user asks for an update. Also, moderation is easier, in theory, since fewer nodes must be monitored and regulated.
For details, see this post by ActivityPub developer Christine Lemmer-Webber.

- Yeah my understanding is they are fundamentally incompatible. We definatly do need to steal their concept of a personal data pod that is ur account across all instances and services (i believe this exists but its just not implemented into most activpub application yet).
I do too, but the activitypub option didn't work properly.
- What mastodon? Yeah its got its issues and the devs are too uptight to fix them or adopt any reccommendations by anyone else.

Thanks for the alt text!

True, happened to wolfballs, literally everyone defederated with them and now they're gone. (Complaining all the way.)

that is how most of my interpersonal relationships go.

i'm the one in red.

Dang, looks like pink stepped in some and got it stuck to their shoe in the last panel.

Wrong, they sue you.

Oh... lol... self own.
