Damn, have an upvote!

Man I wish we hadn’t all fallen for the “don’t be evil” motto all those years ago.

This move from Google is utter, utter bullshit.

Man oh man … a trip down memory lane!

When the Internet was a more naive and a fr nicer place to hang out …

Always fully open! More airflow, less stuffiness. Having said that, we don’t share a home with anyone else.

The best thing about breaking up with someone is that you’ll get to fall in love again.

Obviously don’t rush that or seek it out, but it will happen at some point.

I always think that breaking up from a decently long relationship is like losing a part of yourself - take your time and make yourself whole before trying to fill that void with the “easy fix” of starting a relationship with someone else.

How do you do that? It just takes time. Do things you love doing. Spend time with people who bring joy to your life. Embrace life! Say yes to new experiences. Be brave.

And then - probably when you least expect it - you’ll meet someone who makes you realise that breaking up was the best thing that could have happened to you.

Even if the former Twitter engineers were working on Threads - so what?

I have had to demonstrate relevant skills and experience for every job I’ve ever applied for (beyond junior/trainee). This is just how the world works.

It’s almost like Musk doesn’t understand how enormously normal it is to use skills and experience gained in one job when you go to the next one.

And it’s not like Twitter has special IP - it’s a fairly straightforward system; the only difficulty is scale which Meta will already know all about.

Why not subscribe to them all? Content will still appear on your home feed …

There were a bunch of subreddits I was subbed to on Reddit that were effectively the same thing, even if they had different names.

This is the funniest thing I’ve read in ages. Bring on the cage fight!!

Couldn’t agree more. The reason I came here was to get away from the algorithm driven inanity of big social.

And I can’t help feeling that the only reason Meta wants to federate Threads is to kill the threat of the fediverse off.

Good grief.

I’ve been a developer for nearly 30 years, started my IT degree when I was 24. No, you’re not too old to start!

This can’t be true.

I’m not American but does 6th grade mean about 11?

Who’s a good boy?!
