bluesky is experiencing major community backlash after the platform allowed users to register handles with racial slurs
but it's about more than just that
i spoke to bluesky users to find out what's going on: https://mashable.com/article/bluesky-racism-username-anti-blackness
An example of data collected by popcon:
I liked your article. Even tough my position is in favor of opt-in.
As contribution there. Is a linux distro that has had opt in telemetry for years now, Debian. You can do it during the install process or join after install.
the tool is called popcon; And even tough it is opt in, in the last 12 months it had about 25K submissions.
Which is a large sample compared with other attempts to get telemetry.
Check the graphic at the end of the page

Q: "Will Meta get my data or be able to track me?"
A: Mastodon does not broadcast your email or IP address, so Meta will only be able to extract every piece of information from your public profile data, public posts, and followers-only posts and DMs targeted at users on Threads.
They can and will do so to a degree none of the hobbyist fediverse search engines could even dream of, but that's no reason to overreact and threaten that sweet Meta money we're receiving.

A geringonça morreu quando no resultado das legislativas de 2019, o PS, e no fim do primeiro acordo escrito da geringonça. Não há um segundo acordo escrito com os 4 partidos que a formaram.
O maior erro do PC e do bloco depois da geringonça ter morrido, foi não terem deixado isso bem claro, e que era navegação proposta a proposta para o PS.
Dois anos depois, a imprensa ainda falava como se a geringonça existisse.
A Mariana Motágua é uma Keynesiana, uma Social Democrática nórdica (nada haver com o PSD), da escola do Olof Palm. De meter o capitalismo sob controlo.
De radical, de mandar abaixo o capitalismo e o substituir completamente por outra coisa tem muito pouco.
Nesse sentido não a chamaria de "radical".

One of the issue preventing #LinuxMobile distros from shipping a #PipeWire / #libcamera camera stack is the fact that it requires #wireplumber as session manager, which again does not always play nicely with #pulseaudio, if that is still used as sound server.
Unfortunately switching to PW for sound is not always possible yet because some mobile-specific packages depend on PA. So if you want to help with camera enablement, please consider helping with issues such as https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/wys/-/issues/13 :)

Twitter is threatening legal action against Meta over Threads
in November, Elon Musk mocked laid off Twitter employees, saying “their immense talent will no doubt be of great use elsewhere”
well, apparently some went to Meta to build Threads & Musk now has a problem with that

Before you create a Threads account you should know that you can’t delete it without nuking your entire Instagram account.

@primalmotion yes, I did watched the video. But that video was not the first time I saw/read such characterizations. And sadly it will not be the last.

Intriguing how everyone's aware by now that Threads can't be launched in the EU because it is not compliant with privacy rules, but no one outside the EU takes the clue that Meta keeps sucking every scrap of users' digital footprint and that sensible users (not just the European Commission), should deem this utterly unacceptable and stop using any of Meta's services.
