I don’t get the whole MIT vs GPL rivalry. They both have their uses. If you want to use GPL, go for it. And if you want something like MIT that works too.

Thankfully both exist because I think we definitely need both.

I’d rather not have to go to a different community to discuss a post.

I’d rather just have different communities. There are some instances I’d prefer not to have to go to and this proposal would give more controls to the bigger communities.

Almost all of the front ends do this already.

Wow. Photon UI looks really nice. It’s a lot like Sync

It’s definitely a good choice. And there will always be jobs. But job security is pretty minimal.

Who told you that? AFAIK that was definitely never true about computer tech jobs.

Twitter is available now. /s

You know what does show headlines? Mastodon.

This stuff isn’t intentional. It’s just that MS is really bad at handling errors. So they just gave up and put a generic message.

That’ll be great for most communities. That’s the exact opposite of what I want for a few specific ones though

I am already subscribed!

All browsing is what really sucks for some niche communities. Until we have the ability to exclude our communities from all, these niche communities don’t have a chance to survive.

I do wish Tesla had Android Auto, but their software is really quite good.

Mostly I just want different music apps like Plex and Newpipe.

The nav stuff is mostly fine. SMS integration is good. Video apps while parked is good.

1. Report queue. Right now, reports go to a queue that both instance owners and mods use. This makes it impossible to mod because the instance owners mark items as completed before mods even had a chance to look at them.

Now, if it’s the case where it’s user abuse it’s fine for the instance owner to take care of it.

But if it’s just breaking the rule of a community, the instance owner should never even see it.

Separating the queues would help both mods and instance owners.

2. The ability to hide a community from All and/or Local. Some communities just aren’t appealing to the general public. And when All surfers see posts, they just downvote them into oblivion.
