Even Twitter agrees, NFT stands for No Fuckin’ Thanks.

Dumb. Federation is how we escape from every cloud-based service being a dictatorship of the person who owns the platform. That includes federating with privately own orgs to provide them an exit.

By all means make good tools to allow individual users to block Threads (or other private instances ruled by amoral coporations), but doing it at instance level is just dumb.

edit: also, number of instances doesn’t matter. Number of daily active users matters. Most users are on mastodon.social, mastodon.cloud, lemmy.world, hachyderm.io, lemmy.world, etc. And all of those are federating. The only large instance that is not federating with threads is mas.to

So as somebody who has avoided Win11 just because I use a taskbar in a configuration that Win11 doesn’t support (docked to the left edge of the screen, no grouping, full text labels) what’s the reason other people are avoiding Win11? Something about ads?

Because on the “windows login” thing, I actually like that part. Having automatic cloud sync of my documents and config across machines through OneDrive is handy. I agree it shouldn’t be mandatory, but it suits me.
