I don't want to start shit, but what is a "hopefully not-for-profit" corporation, and why do we think that's interchangeable with a foundation?
What would be the relationship between, the foundation, corporation, dan, and the apps? What would the foundation's charter be? In what jurisdiction? Who would run it?
I would like these projects to succeed, and be long term stable components of the fediverse. Why does this stuff always feel so improvised?

anyway, don't mind me, I'm just re-re-re-redoing some shit that is downstream from the fact that in activitypub, anything can be anything. And also collection addressing.

I might have to start complaining about activitypub again soon

leaving it unbounded seems like it's just an invitation for people to fuck up your database, so letterbook is definitely going to have a limit. But the actual value of any limit would be pretty arbitrary. So my choice is to just make it up, or align with some other project. Between those two options, I prefer alignment.

Does mastodon (or any other common fedi backend) have a limit to the number of people you can mention in a post?
Just asking for science reasons

If you're not already in the habit, do your brain a favor and make something this week. Do something creative; something constructive. In whatever medium holds an interest for you. Even if it's small. In fact, especially if it's small.
Sketch out a couple panels of the comic you've always wanted to make. Write a scene of your novel or play. Crochet one granny square. Make pasta. Bake bread. Put some html files on a webserver.
And while you're at it: drink water, have a shower, take a walk, and get some sleep. Do the things that nourish you. Because, whatever else we are, humans are animals. Your brain and your body are amping each other up and just drenching each other in stress hormones. It's dark and cold, and there are monsters out there, somewhere. Animals don't handle that well. So show your body that it's warm and safe. And that there are still things you can control. You'll feel better. And then you can think clearly. And THEN, you can look ahead.

It's a good time to scroll through the #Introduction hashtag. There's new people joining the fediverse. You can help them find their people. You might even be their people!

Jack Dorsey is a white supremacist crypto fanatic. The SWF already includes Meta as a major sponsor, and Evan P seems to be courting more of the same.

The longer it goes on, the more it bothers me that the mastodon api is the de facto client api for the fediverse. Not because there's anything wrong with it, exactly. But because it limits what's possible to be only what's legible to mastodon.

reminder that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism.
You should still do the best you can, of course. But at some point the best we can do has to include creating better alternatives, because virtually every firm in virtually every domain is ethically atrocious.
There is no shopping our way out of capitalism.

update: the characters that I was pretty sure are lesbians and not just my brain reading in what it wants to see have begun to acknowledge their crushes on each other. Canonical lesbians
(tbh, I suspect there are no cishet characters in this game)

For some extra context, I'm saying this as someone who always wanted to like tactics games, but in practice I found them dry and tedious. This game extremely doesn't have that problem. Also, I love all of these characters, so much

Do you want to play a game where you're a team of unemployed, mentally ill (affectionate), retired, special forces wizards on a mission to stop a war?
Yeah you do
You want Tactical Breach Wizards

I consider that the Social Web Foundation™ is poisoned by having Meta as a partner, and that they are fundamentally unable to fulfill their mission as long as they keep that partnership.
And, that poison does not transitively extend to other partners of the SWF. I hope those other partners are using what influence they have to convince the SWF to cut ties with Meta, including ending their own partnerships. But they can and should try other methods first. That is the full extent of their responsibility, as far as I'm concerned.

apropos of zuckerberg's absolutely depraved moderation policy changes, perhaps you'd like to help your local fedi devs?
History suggests the mastodon project is unlikely to be receptive to new contributors, but here's a curated list of other projects:

No, seriously, has the self appointed warden of the social web had any thoughts about facebook's policy that it's okay to dehumanize people, but only if those people are queer?
I mean, you're partners, right? Seems like you should be calling them in, right?
