This is showing the total number of posts, not just new ones. The title is really misleading…

There’s a separate graph on that page for comments, which are up around 17 million.

This should say total posts, not average, right?

My money’s on 4.

My point is there could be a @taylorswift but it doesn’t matter because people know which account is hers.

Taylor Swift’s Twitter handle is @taylorswift13 and it doesn’t seem to be a problem for her.

Interesting. This explains why posts never seem to have more than a few likes on the small Mastodon instance I use. I have to say I’m not a fan.

From the article - “which is twice the failure rate for non-AI technology-related startups.”

This is exactly what worries me about this idea.

The last one needs the prongs sticking out to make it a hyperhashtag.

Thanks! All good now.

I’m getting “[200] Error while sending: Failed to send direct message” when I try to log in.

Thanks!

Interesting, the other numbers all match the graphs, but that one is wrong.

I would report it to them but it seems like you need a github account to do that.

June 11 here too lol

Beehaw might be a good one.

I wouldn’t call an 8% drop “downfall”. I think it will shrink and grow over time, but I expect the growth pattern will be in waves - migrations of people coming in response to changes in Reddit or other causes, followed by periods of retraction as some people lose interest or decide it’s not for them.

From my feeling, it seems pretty steady at the moment. I wouldn’t mind if it got bigger, especially to make some more niche communities possible. But I’m not worried about it.

I think the best solution to this is a way to migrate an account to another instance, which I’ve heard is in the works.

While the Spike Jonze film Her (2013) explored a romance between a man and his virtual personal assistant, 10 years earlier, the movie Demolition Man looked at how technology could play a role in sexual relationships. In an iconic scene, a character played by Arnold Schwarzenegger has virtual sex with Sandra Bullock.

Was this article written by AI? Arnold Schwarzenegger wasn’t in Demolition Man, and 1993 was not ten years before 2013.
