New little feature on bird.makeup this weekend: the account page will now display the number of followers a user has, and also in which server that account is the most popular.

Hope this will help users find more niche servers that host the communities they want to be part of! Also if you are on a server like mastodon.social that bans bird.makeup and you want to move, this is now my recommended way to find a new home

Proud to introduce my new activitypub project: bird.makeup . Do you wish to follow on mastodon some people that are still on the bird site? Now you can! You can even follow the muskrat if you want @elonmusk (but why would you?)

Fires are still burning in Canada.

New fires – some caused by lightning – raged in Quebec in early June, prompting evacuations and air quality warnings.

@nasa’s Aqua satellite captured this image of smoke from the fires on June 3, 2023. go.nasa.gov/3oQEN10

Why do all of Apple’s new computing platforms have no answer for development? Like, I can’t use their new platforms to build. Not iPhone, not iPad, not Vision. It’s still the Mac doing the heavy lifting. Touch apps built on a mouse based system. 3D apps built on a 2D system. Apple is missing out on apps developed for these systems on these systems. The Mac is a mess. But apparently it’s the mess that works for this messy world.

Interesting framing of Norway's #EV boom:

> Norway’s current 80%+ BEV share is enough to meet California’s 2035 gas car ban

They've already done what people say is impossible to do by 2035.

New feature on bird.makeup this weekend:

Alt-text/captioning on images will now be properly replicated. I know Twitter doesn't have the same culture of writing them as the fediverse, but it was really a waste to not keep them when we have them!

Let me know if you see other ways of making the service more accessible, always happy to add those kind of feature 😄

Imagine in a few years being able to say to chatgpt8:
Please promote my product on the fediverse by registering 100,000 accounts over the course of 12 weeks on at least 500 different instances, weighted by instance size. These accounts should be conversational and engaging with other members and should not be detectable as bots. 10% of of these bots should express skepticism in my product, and the remaining bots should engage them in a public discourse to correct their misunderstanding. Monitor the sentiment of people discussing my product and develop an optimal strategy to maximize that sentiment. “
