I wonder if the difference is related to how tight you like to stretch the elastic around your wrist and what kinds of thigs you’re doing (sweating / swimming).

Bah. Source is RT.

Actually yeah. It feels like voice / videos were kind of tacked on. There isn’t a really good web based chat tool that doesn’t require some sign in and configuration. File transfer isn’t like that and people can easily drop links to third party services in any chat.

Another option: Gmail supports the “+” operator. If your email address is: Alice@gmail.com

You can use an email like Alice+eBay@gmail.com

To sign up for eBay. Now you can filter all of the garbage sent to that address easily! Bonus, you get to see who’s selling your data which is always frustrating and entertaining.

But discord supports sending messages to people who are offline. It kind of breaks the paradigm if certain features require full synchronous communication. Maybe supporting p2p transfers during a video / voice chat would work though.

Now supports “mark read on scroll” if you like to keep the Frontpage fresh. So good!

One reason we care about this is because we can choose to or to not purchase small fractions of these public companies and become partial owners. This information is useful in making investment decisions.

Instance admins can do it.

Most normal users won’t care about any of this because it’ll shake itself out quickly as has happened with Mastodon. But if you do care, join up with a smaller server that plays nice with everybody and enjoy the whole fediverse.

Just need a “mark read in scroll” for those of us who like fresh content and doomscroll often.
