Can’t just have a royal rumble. You’re going to need to iterate ALL of the flavors into factions if you want a war.

I vote everyone vs Arch (btw)

Are you saying “crassholes” or “assholes”

Indeed.

It’s a very basic trade that it seems few understand. You MUST trade a bit of convenience to increase your security, or mistakes will happen.

I recognize you’re probably not the original commenter, but this is the same flavor of strawman.

App is app. Other app is other app.

In one app, it was possible to send both SMS and encrypted messages. In the other, just SMS.

I don’t feel that it’s me being intentionally dense here because, again, you’ve concocted an irrelevant scenario to argue your tenuous position - which I already agreed is possible, but irrelevant in this context.

Appreciate the heads up on session.

Not doubting that pushy idiots are going to pushy idiot, but I think you’ve strawmanned the actual reason hard enough.

Most people who want it back don’t need, want, or understand why secure messaging exists.

Here’s the simple facts:

SMS is not secure, or private.
Signal is for secure, private comms.

As mildly inconvenient as it is, Signal explained their reasoning in great detail, and I happen to agree: There should never have been an insecure option on a secure messaging app.

It was for the music in a linked game download, and owner decided to close up shop.

Sys admins are already worked to death, so anything that can be done to simplify makes perfect sense.

Especially on mobile. News sites are legit impossible to use, let alone tolerate.

Which is why it boggles my mind that every company I have worked for uses it as the stock alternative to Edge over Firefox.

I vaguely recall that they received a takedown notice.

We all have bad days. Unfortunately his coincided with the only time you saw him. I don’t think that makes him an asshole. I think it makes him human.

You ever call in sick because you’re not feeling it? Public figures can’t do that because people will call them an asshole.

Bingo. Enshittification is mostly confined to companies that have gone public or whose sole aspiration is to do so quickly.

It shifts responsibility from satisfying customers/users to satisfying shareholders (who are never satisfied).

You can build the perfect product and ride a gravy train as a private company in relative perpetuity. As a corporation, you’re just going to strive for perpetually increasing profits on a quarterly basis with no real care or focus past that

Nitter link.

Agreed. I would much rather see fewer posts than bot content. A human OP is going to engage in conversation, and is also likely able to provide more context on the topic of their OP.

I’ve taken to blocking obvious bots (extremely high post:comment ratio) to keep the same feel as the fediverse had since “rexit”.

[OT]

surely they’re going through a personal crisis to be so terminally online and posting so frequently.

I apparently needed to see this today. Life has been winding me up lately and I have been impatient/quick to dismiss people as a result.

Thanks for snapping me out of it.
