For all you non-native English speakers out there, “read” is pronounced like “lead”, and “read” is pronounced like “lead”.

@RustyStriker I dont see either government solving any problems honestly… but the Israel side is the one with the power, so they are the ones that has the power to resolve things really.

The portable identity people always, inevitably forget one simple truth: the identity and the means of accessing it should be separable. I've explained them way too many times that a public key is not a viable form of identity. They still keep insisting on using public keys as identifiers.

The fatal flaw of the use of cryptographic keys for identity is that
- Once leaked, it can't be revoked to prevent further unauthorized access and impersonation
- Once lost, it can't be recovered and a new key pair, thus a new identity, is required

This stuff is non-negotiable really. I worked at VK, they have an entire department dedicated to restoring people's access to their accounts. People are terrible with passwords and they will be even more terrible with private keys.

please dont buy chairs that need a #subscription to work. buy #chair for 10$ but to sit on it you need to download an #app on your phone and register your butt and pay 2$/month per butt. otherwise youll be ejected or the chair will self destruct. o;

The official Mastodon app is doing something new which is potentially very dangerous to the existence of Mastodon and the Fediverse.

The official Mastodon app now prompts users to join mastodon.social by default, when previously it prompted them to pick a server. If you're new this may sound harmless, but let me explain.

The entire point of this place is to be a social network spread out on as many servers as possible (the reasons are here: fedi.tips/why-is-the-fediverse).

TFW you know exactly how to model an algorithm in a dozen ways but not the way that Rust wants.

I kinda wish mastadon wasnt anti-algorithm when it comes to your feed... The ideal, IMO, is that the user can pick whatever algorithm they want to effectively empower their feed and make discovery of new content better.
