Anal beads.

Appreciate it.

Nah this is the outcome they were looking for. Mission accomplished.

I strongly disagree meta’s involvement is necessary for the fediverse to grow and become big. Snowballing is a very real thing and as long as growth continues to happen, that will encourage more growth.

The threat of meta is a huge jump in growth, and communities that then centralize around those users. Once popular communities are established on meta servers, they have control. If they choose to split or defederate those communities on the non-meta side of the fence would be back to square one building from scratch. That is the problem and if we don’t see it for what it is we will be left with nothing.

Something, something, sinking ship.

If you say it in a catchy way it’s not a problem.

After watching the level breakdown that was my first thought. Thanks for the replies.

What happened to Trimming the Herbs?

And yet they will do nothing to make it happen, just like every administration before them. At what point will you care that it’s just lip service?

Wha… nevermind I don’t need to know.

Context is key, and you’ve broken down the situation to the point of absurdity.

They already have the staff, this would just be a project current staff manages.

Has it been 6 months already?

Well written and glad to see professional outlets sharing their experience with Activity Pub.

You understand there are places other than China and the US right?

I just watched this video on toki pona. Really interesting in how it’s easy to learn but the difficulty comes from trying to communicate complex ideas.

I live in a townhouse that is one of 30 on our lot. All of the houses are a part of a land trust program that owners have to qualify in order to buy, a minimum income set to ensure applicants can pay a mortgage and a maximum set by the average income of the city. The houses are sold at cost and buyers agree to sell at that cost, plus a small percentage of equity gain per year lived in the house. Property taxes are fixed to this valuation agreement so nobody in the program is forced out of their home from real estate bubbles.

The HOA is responsible for repaving our shared driveway, external window cleaning, gutter cleaning, ect. On three storied townhouses some of those tasks would be difficult for neighbors to manage themselves and kinda ridiculous for each individual to take care of, when pooling resources is a simpler solution.

Your view of HOAs is entirely skewed by suburbia, which is terrible community planning from the onset.

Depends on where you live. Here in Washington state we don’t have an income tax, so our property taxes are one of the few ways the government has to collect taxes. For that reason our property taxes are much higher than states that have multiple ways to collect.
