I’m torn on this one. I want users to migrate to FOSS platforms but at the same time Threads is the best near term solution to drain Twitter users. In a perfect world, I would like the skinheads to stay on Twitter, the attention seeking people to go to threads, and the normal folk to hit Lemmy/Kbin.
This is one of my favorite Star Trek episodes I can recall watching in the past few years. Loved the crossover and had no idea what was coming as I hadn’t heard anything prior. Had to scroll through Lemmy to find a post about it just to comment that I loved it.
Xeon gang in the house. I picked up an HPE with an E5-2650 v4 on eBay with 64GB memory and some spinning disks for $180. Best investment I have made. It’s the z640 tower so pretty quiet and doesn’t need a rack. Core count has made my life a whole lot easier.
I signed up for mastodon when he bought Twitter. The challenge is that I never actually used Twitter so I am lost on what to do with Mastadon. I repost and star posts that are fun but can’t figure out how to follow the conversation. Happy with Lemmy since it’s much easier to follow each conversation. Maybe I’m using Microblogging wrong.
I haven’t been to a Star Trek event but having the handlers act abrasive would certainly irritate me as well and it doesn’t matter if I was paying for a photo op or getting it free. I imagine it’s probably a local security group they are contracting so the staff are probably more used to being bar bouncers but someone should give them a speech on the proper way to engage during these types of events.
