How in the world could people interpret him as being conservative?!
Okay. I see where the disconnect is. We’re both saying the same thing. In my earlier comment I said “as long as the Dev is open about it and it’s configurable by the admin”. What the tesseract dev did was wrong, what I was saying though is that a dev creating and managing a list is fine as long as those other conditions are met.
The ratio of home ownership probably looks closer to the distribution of the demographics of congress than that of America.
Which is why it’s ultimately the decision of the admin. Don’t like what the admin of your instance is doing. Go make your own. That’s the beauty of the fediverse. It’s choice all the way down. It’s not like Reddit where you’d be stuck.
Except one guy isn’t. You have to choose to install the software. It’s not included by default. I’m running a local client (Voyager) and never dealt with any of that because the admins of my instance don’t use it either.
“For the time being”… that phrase does a lot of heavy lifting and doesn’t address to core of rhe issue. What happens when it’s small enough it can’t be obviously seen. Maybe it becomes a contact lens, maybe it can fit on a thin bridge on the nose. The problem still remains to be addressed.
You know, I’m very much for equality, but in this situation a woman can do exactly that and get loads of dates.
It’s the initial connection that is the highest barrier for men, after that, yeah, kinda need to leave the house to get a partner.
Feeld is there too. Their matching and like system is very much weighted towards paying not-cheap monthly prices.
Then may he read and seethe at all of these comments and hopefully one day realize he’s wrong (I know, long shot)
lol, why a corncob?
that even can be saved from itself
Huh, didn’t know the fediverse needed that. Oh wait, it doesn’t.
Not every admin has the time or skill to curate. As long as the dev is open about it and there are configurable features to disable it, I don’t see what the issue is. Ultimately it creates no difference for a user if the admin creates it or the Dev does as long as it’s communicated.
The advantage of the fediverse is “don’t like it, go to another instance or build your own”, not to tell devs what they can and can’t do. Hell I never even interacted with Tesseract since I use a different client and an open instance.
We need this magazine to make a come back. I remember it was basically “Consumer Reports” for kids, but it had articles in it that taught kids to be critical of businesses practices such as calling out “new and improved” language on products and to think through how you’re being sold to.
