I somewhat agree: tech peaked just when it was high end and absolutely not relying on manufacturer’s cloud / subscription / customer portal enrollment … 😓

They’ve been doing that with intel for ages, one build a slower OS the other a faster processor.

Checking before buy buying will be possible for computer and privacy « educated » people only, that leaves almost everyone helpless in the real world, in a store facing TVs all playing the demo video. Maybe some will read Amazon reviews or do actual research… hope.

That’s my plan too

And then invoke GDPR, ask for a printed copy

Noted, not native english here ;)

It’s easier to pretend your data were deleted than collecting part of your data and sending them back to you. They almost every time don’t know how much, where, why they have so much data. They certainly have no way to collect them, only hand made work, so let’s have a little misunderstanding and hope it works.

Now that you’ve been deleted, wait until you receive the next text or email marketing campaign ;)

And now it is Gòógle

How dare you, it identifies as a baguette

cat is watching you the whole time, judging…

“don’t be evil” , does it ring a bell ?

Here, a baguette : ##########

Better questions : is it a Tesla door ? Can he get out every time ?

Stop playing with it - Chuck Norris

Does it play Tokyo Drift as a boot sound?

Couldn’t agree more. Fixing what is not broken… did that ever worked ?

I agree on the unfortunate and predictable bluesky’s future. Corporate, politics, ads… Avoiding to become “Xitter” should not rely on end users computer knowledge, technical abilities, geeky mindset. I think you understand that too: KISS is a huge success factor. That’s just my 2cts.

That question would start a very long post. Let’s keep it simple:

1. you may never find your communities again (hashtag ? what is that ? why should I hashtag to make it searchable and make it stick…)
2. your posts may never reach your friends, or general audience (defederation, admin instance ban…)
3. the global timeline is not a global timeline as in X or Bsky, or Insta or any other social media, just what your instance admin and federation relatations “agreed” to show you …

Bluesky is easy on the beginner and mimics X as a whole world in your single feed. Mastodon (fediverse) carry way to much technical concepts to understand and get the most out of it.
