A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Adam Mosseri:

Second, threads posted by me and a few members of the Threads team will be available on other fediverse platforms like Mastodon starting this week. This test is a small but meaningful step towards making Threads interoperable with other apps using ActivityPub — we’re committed to doing this so that people can find community and engage with the content most relevant to them, no matter what app they use.

Elon Musk: "Hold my beer"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

The difference is twitter is just another big social media platform. Elon Musk isn't potentially trying to ruin an open source federated alternative that fixes a lot of the problems with social media. He's just messing around with and tanking a big corpo social media site.

So I honesty don't really care about twitter as it will get us more users if he burns it down, if the Zuck doesn't ruin us first.

Basically twitter isn't a threat to us and could actually be a big help.

Threads could ruin everything we've worked for.
