[11:57:22] <chromas> Thread should have the stench too, since it's a Facebook thing
[12:00:33] <janrinok> you simply don't understand, do you? It is different - it has a different icon. How can you be so blind!!!
[12:01:12] <chromas> oh you're right. how could I be so wrawng!?

[16:43:31] <progo> trust me, Threads doesn't want me in there
[16:44:40] <progo> Joy of Tech: "no thanks, I'm trying to get away from apps like you." family party last weekend: found out my niece shut down accounts and uninstalled apps and is going cold turkey indefinitely on "social media"
[16:44:46] <progo> wants to be more productive
[16:45:06] <fab23> \o/
[16:45:43] <progo> I just have the one fediverse account. plus IRC and soylent and stuff that's defintely social but … well they're not reddit or facebook
[16:47:29] <progo> hey… "hire me to do your portrait like this Dr. Kiki image" is gone from geekculture.com's page design
[16:47:55] <progo> it was so big, maybe people thought this site was her
[16:48:59] <fab23> hm
[16:50:41] <requerdanos> I hope threads invalidates twitter before it fades.
[16:51:04] <progo> I think the Musk era has already done that hasn't it?
[16:51:47] <progo> randomly disappearing everything behind a paywall, no anon access? … evicted from Denver office for not paying rent. not paying subscription/rent/service fees on ANYTHING that isn't involved in keeping twitter.com serving pages
[16:51:59] <requerdanos> Dunno. But I have popcorn and schadenfraude.
[16:52:11] <progo> twitter.com social interactions are coasting on inertia
[16:52:50] <progo> SF is TRYING to evict them from the office for not paying rent and it's kinda sad that they haven't actually done so yet
[16:53:16] <requerdanos> fortunately judges routinely side with landlords when nonpayment is the issue.
[16:54:16] <progo> I don't see threads as an alternative to anything
[16:54:39] <progo> AFAICT they want to do the same top-down "moderate everything and we decide what gets promoted to you" scheme as Facebook and Reddit
[16:54:50] <progo> that doesn't scale to a world-wide service
[16:55:57] <requerdanos> oh I'm not hoping threads succeeds, jsut that that take twitter down with them when they go
[16:56:24] <progo> do bad we won't get a Musk / Zuckerberg street fight
[16:56:39] <progo> maybe someone could program autonomous virtual avatars of them to perform the fight?
[16:57:02] <progo> I 'member Celebrity Death Match
[17:58:56] <kolie> o/

[20:20:59] <Fnord666> Maybe virtual skins in the street fighter game?
