It’s not worth getting this upset about this stuff. That’s my 2 cents.
Agreed but it bugs me that I need to pay Reddit to not see ads and on top of that they get paid for the content we produce. The fediverse is a better model.
I don’t object to my content being used for training. I do object to Reddit profiting from that data. It’s the reason I basically don’t participate on Reddit anymore. Anything I post in the fediverse I am aware I am offering it up for free to be crawled and used as seen fit as long as it is not monetized without my consent. I don’t consider model training to be monetization.
It’s this kind of nonsense that always makes me run back to my iPhone.
If RCS is such an awesome standard, why not mandate it for all EU phones? Apple already supports the current standard, which is SMS. The idea that they have to open up their proprietary software seems silly to me.
It is confusing. If you have two apps on your phone that do the same thing, how is the new user supposed to know what to do? I’m thinking of Samsung and how they insist on shipping their own branded stuff that, for the most part, brings nothing new to the table.
When I see people criticize something they have clearly not used I get motivated to try it.
Just wait till the first security vulnerability are discovered in the code that now will be able to run on iOS and which Apple can’t control directly. Nobody will remember that the cause was forcing Apple to open up their system. They will just blame Apple.
Until you realize that their implementation of AI, whatever that means, in their case is mediocre, and nothing more than a marketing term. 
As with everything Samsung tends to do I’ll bet the AI stuff is half baked. 
I had a light camera. It was very good but it needed more cameras.
In don’t know or care about their intentions. If we want to claim we are an open protocol then mastodon needs to role with the puches. Otherwise you might as well be on threads.
Yeah, let’s defederate from a major player that wants to participate in the decentralized nature of this protocol. That way we further fragment Mastodon and guarantee its failure in the long run! Good call!!!
I see bean got some updates.
So far I am very impressed with beeper. I cant find anything that does not work well.
Oh, the whole sheep argument is silly. iMessage is better than RCS, and I don’t blame any Apple user for wanting to stay within iMessage if possible. It’s not Apple’s fault that Google took forever to get their act together in the messaging space.
I wish them much success but sounds like a hack.
I bet they do some thing like make it optional on the iPhone and the user needs to turn that setting on to get RCS. Obviously most users don’t care and will never look. 
You realize you’re describing Nostr right?
