Yes, I don’t like Windows one bit anymore but back then, Windows Mobile was very solid! I loved my Lumia phones.

If Windows becomes a sub service for business only, three things three things can happen:

1 Mac’s become the most sold consumer product

2 Linux takes off like never before

3 Some consumer version where ads accompany every mouse click

I hope it’s gonna be number two

Linux Mint. As an alternative: any kind of BSD is going to be pretty stable.

But god forbid I use ad blocker on Facebook

A parent can flag an account of their children, that the child has to accept. They would of course do this together sitting next to each other, so the child has no choice but to accept. Then, the parent can control the content the child sees.

Honestly age verification other than ID checks will never work. But to send your ID to the owner of an instance is of a whole other level, that the people who join / have joined and even the instance owners are probably unwilling to accept. And they wouln’t be wrong for that.

Well in all honesty: never

Isn’t it wise to do some sort of age check before someone can access the adult subs? If this becomes a trend among teenagers, I can already see parents halting that just because of easy adult access. Pixelfed for instance has parental controls.

I wonder what happened during the small dip . Very good news though!

I did try to federate my blog to Mastodon. Haven’t made a post in a long time though, so I can’t tell if it works or not.

I do believe the type of people and lack of the karma system also makes it better. People do anything to get some karma.

In random order

Loops

Peertube very sparingly. Youtube is still king.

Lemmy. Nuked my 14 year old Reddit account today. Lemmy is great.

Pixelfed

Mastodon

Wordpress if that is counted as federated

The EU managed to get Meta on their knees with GDPR. They could force unlocked bootloader and easy install of any OS on phones just like on laptop/pc. I believe then we would really get the Linux phone movement going. Imagine: iPhone with UBports.
