@npub1pak…jkzf Thank you, and the rest of the team!
Hey, quick question. Is there a public roadmap of all the ongoing federation work? I believe interacting with federated Flipboard accounts hasn't been implemented yet?

@npub1u27…3qfq Maybe the anecdotal evidence *is* the data?
If enough people say that fediverse *feels* better, then it is?

I don't know.

@npub1u27…3qfq No problem! And that is an interesting thought.
But I'm guessing for this to work you'd have to log in and post as the user?

What do people use for domain registrations these days? I own far too many and need to find something cheaper (and with better service) than Squarespace.
Or start linking to my dormant Patreon page.

Huge thanks to everyone who's been involved with this project!

Folks are starting to return their $3,500 Vision Pro headsets, citing:
- lack of comfort while wearing it
- "constant headaches and eye strain"
- and not enough "productivity relative to the price"
"Two hours after unboxing my Apple Vision Pro and using it, I decided to box it back up again and return it [...] there's nothing in it for me that I'll use frequently enough [...]"

The rush of buying a new domain name and knowing that this time you will actually use it.

Mastodon has added a lot of new features and improvements over the last few months that people have been asking for.
What are you all looking forward to next?

@npub1u27…3qfq That is a good question!
The kind of control I had in mind is about owning our data and knowing what happens with it, and being able to make decisions about it, either by appealing to the maintainers of the instances we're on, or moving to another one. Or running our server. And there is also control over our experience because of a lack of algorithms designed to rile us up into more "user activity".

@npub1u27…3qfq
Why:
- fediverse gives control back to the people, away from corporation that extract value from our interests and relationships
- fediverse is built on open technologies, which encourages innovation and creation of new tools
Why now:
- there is a growing momentum as commercial social media falters due to "enshittification"

So I tried Google's new AI powered search experiment that supposedly gives you code snippets in response to programming related questions.
https://labs.withgoogle.com/sge
The answer was at best incomplete, but all in all unusable. I don't think we're on the right path here.

@npub1mav…25em Thank you for jumping in!
@npub1j39…508f If this is too much work, you could also just update the files and I can run the script that converts them to locale files, whatever works best for you.
Thank you!
