Sorry to burst your bubble, but permanent daylight time is bad for public health.

It’s worse for your sleep and for your health.

If we had year-round DST, the sun wouldn’t rise until after 8 AM in the winter.

He’ll probably fuck it up by pushing for year-round DST (where the sun wouldn’t rise until after 8 AM in the winter).

This is only great news if you are Mark Zuckerberg and you want a near-monopoly on social media.

Fuck. What now?

Well you can nicely ask your instance admin to block Bridgy Fed

Bluesky’s ActivityPub support is also leagues better than Threads because of Bridgy Fed. At least a Bluesky user and a Mastodon user can follow each other and have a back-and-forth conversation.

1. As far as I know, there aren’t any yet. Even if there were, I personally wouldn’t trust them for the same reason I wouldn’t use any Mastodon instance besides mastodon.social: if the PDS shuts down abruptly, your account is gone forever.
2. Bluesky and ATProto are designed specifically to hide the ways in which it’s decentralized.
3. I think this post does a good job visualizing how AtProto is different from ActivityPub.

This is for if you want to host parallel infrastructure. If you only want to self-host your own data, the instructions create a PDS are here, and the instructions to migrate an existing Bluesky account to that PDS are here.

Blame Apple I guess

Bluesky is way more approachable than Mastodon. Most people don’t want to have to learn what an instance is.

For most Americans, that’s not feasible.

I’m begging google to just bring back YouTube Premium Lite and expand it

What do you want Israel to do? Discriminate against LGBTQ or not?

What we don’t want Israel to do is use LGBTQ people as propaganda, especially against Palestinians. It’s unproductive, and it disgusts me everytime someone uses “Hamas would throw you off a roof” as a cheap gotcha.

Donald Trump is a pedophile rapist.

Because there are a lot of dishonest people who claim they’re only criticizing Hamas, when they are actually calling for violence against all Palestinians.

“Harbu Darbu” is a perfect example of that.
