I was hoping they’d call it Twitter
Oh for the love of. Just invest in the fucking Activity Pub and similar FOSS Decentralized systems people.
I’m all for it. I think it was the initial vision for the internet and web, and we got sidetracked by growth and commercialization. I do have to wonder if such a move did happen, a sudden shift of mainstream to here (in general, the Activity Pub’s various forms), could it handle it? Fast growth was a huge hit with the Reddit migration(s), and that was “just” Reddit.
I think what will happen is the big name corporate sites will collapse and the amount of online users will drop to just folks that have a use or passionate interest.
Y?
Y U NO Z?
What a dumb name. This whole Twitter -> X rebranding was stupid to begin with, why would one imitate that?
Also - Mastodon?
Mastodon needs a complete rebranding. Name change, logo, UI, and made to be even easier for the average consumer to use, before it’s even considered a competitive microblog site.
America bad so switch to EU. Oh no, EU bad now, so switch to something else?
Just use something decentralized, fucking hell. Stop having such blind loyalty to countries.
The new platform, W, will require identification and photo validation to ensure that its users are both humans and who they claim to be
Kind of them to get that out of the way in the first sentence. No further reading required.
Lol, why not blood samples? IDs and photos can be faked by AI but not blood…yet.
I refuse to use anything that doesn’t allow authentication via bunghole print. It’s just more convenient.
Lol, why not blood samples?
Could just mail in a stool sample.
What was that movie with the gentic id stuff, gattaca? Yeah, shouldn’t give them too many “good” ideas…
You’re wishing a glorious doom upon us, my friend.
Ah man, I almost got excited for a second…
They should have called it XXX.
