@drq in this form, it's a definition problem more than anything. An alternative isn't just *to* something, it's *in* (or is it *for*? I dunno) solving a specific problem also. And YouTube's list of problems it solves is, as is appropriate for its size, uniquely large. So there probably isn't going to be just one alternative, but many, for different purposes. Probably with some empty spots where no solution exists, and some empty spots where the problem isn't worth solving.

Browsers should really provide a user‐facing option to toggle that without changing setting of your OS (like they already do for light/dark switching). CSS already has enough to read that data.

@SmudgeTheInsultCat Also if you're just unlucky, you get to go to jail, directly, without passing go and without collecting 200. For no reason at all. ' Board Games set an unrealistic set of expectations ' sometimes don't they? Board. Games. 🤦♂️🤦 @BigFoxBoss @mittorn @nillerusr спасибо, что сводили меня, наконец, в кегельбан. Отлично покатали. Спасибо за игру. @Chia подтверждаю. Летом вообще сконцентрироваться ни на чем не возможно, хочется гулять и развлекаться, а не вот это все. Дорогой дневник, словами не передать степень моего фалломорфирования сегодня, вызванного встречей с человеком, глубоко убежденным, что глобальное потепление климата - это фальсификация Госдепа и НАТО. When you see a homeless person, be nice. And realize, that unless you're a billionaire, you are one bad day away from joining this person out on the streets. @drq When I saw homeless people in the basements of houses at work, I didn't mention it to my superiors, realizing that they would be kicked out of there into the cold @MastodonEngineering hey guys, what's the progress on groups? It's been 2 years since the last commit here. https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/19059/commits What's going on? Is it going to be merged? Just realised that on Mastodon, boosting *is* the algorithm. There's no code trying to cleverly show me stuff it reckons I'd be into, based on what my contacts are into, instead my contacts are saying "I like this, I bet my contacts would like it too" and that is way smarter than any algorithm. Thank you, boosters!

Can you even call it "the algorithm" if it's so transparent and driven by people you intentionally chose to follow intentionally pushing a button to share something with their followers? |
