Seconded! This is one of the best books I've read in recent years.

Update: the issue has been fixed and the feature is now live on Sync for Lemmy!

I see, makes sense. So if I get it correctly, the idea is to make it easier for new people to join the fediverse, and not so much to improve the experience for those of us already here (although it seems that is also a goal).

But why is that such a great benefit? We already have a myriad accounts for different services/platforms; would this be merely a marginal improvement over the current situation?

Eu nem sequer sabia que existia uma versão nativa. Experimentei o PWA e até gostei da interface, mas era muito lento a carregar no início. Vou tentar novamente com a app nativa.

IMO both of these ended up being poor names.

"Open source" can be co-opted to mean any project with public source code even if it's not open contribution (think SQLite, and many of the projects effectively run by major tech corporations).

"Free software" falls victim to the eternal mixup with freeware, requiring the endless repetition of the "beer vs. speech" analogy.

I personally think "Libre software" is the term that best encapsulates the intended meaning while being unambiguous and not vulnerable to misinterpretation.

Damn, that seems to be flagrantly anti-competitive. Has Microsoft attempted to justify why they do that?

This comment should be pinned. Are community mods able to do that?

[–] waldyrious@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

apparently there's meshing between the two fediverse projects, given that they use the same platform.

What are you referring to exactly? Sounds a bit like kbin but I get the sense that's not what you're talking about.

Thanks for putting down my vague impression into clear words. I couldn't agree more!
