Alas I sold my soul to VSCode a long time ago.

Also, ew, emacs 😝

Well played 👏👏

I guess I just got, recurse rolled?

Amazing. OC?

Yes yes, combined with git add -P makes small, meaningful commits so much easier.

What a lazy joke.

This. I’m a computer programmer, never been in a union, but after twenty years of startups I cannot believe how good it is to be at a small, stable, employee owned company.

Only looking back do I realize that the people doing the actual work were never in control, and just how damaging that is.

To pour you life and soul into building something (time, and time again), and then have it taken away from you again, and again.

Never going back.

Well, not necessarily, right? It could be funded any number of ways, but on YT you’re locked in to either watching their ads, or paying their premium.

Well yes, this is the problem isn’t it:

1. Monopoly X sucks
2. Federated alternatives developed
3. People complain that there’s not enough content on them

I’ve been really enjoying https://nebula.tv/, but yes, I wish they’d built it on top of PeerTube.

There are even companies springing up who will run and host it for you, for a price, of course.

Can anyone speak to the difference of the data returned in the options given, or is it the same any they’re just trying to do analytics?

I think the USA’s National Weather Service Twitter presence is a good example.

If you look deep enough you’ll see caveats like “supplemental service provided by NWS” and “Twitter feeds and tweets do not always reflect the most current information”, but the truth is that a lot of people (and news organizations) depend on Twitter as their main interface to the NWS, and rarely if ever go to their website.

That obviously creates a tension, which bubbles up in scares like this:

Before last weekend’s storm, the National Weather Service’s Baltimore-Washington office sent this tweet saying that because of a new Twitter policy, automated tweets that show advisories, watches, and warnings might not load.

Contrast that to a world where NOAA (the federal administration which runs NWS) has their own instance: they get the benefit of being able to disseminate updates in a consumer friendly ‘social media’ style and they retain full control of platform and can be sure the service won’t be held hostage, or go down in the middle of a storm.

Finally: if you’re reading this from the USA, consider contact NOAA/NWS to let them know you’d like a fediverse presence, I did!
