Nothing. People have been memeing about it’s death for 10 years.

Tumblr announced they were gonna integrate with ActivityPub years ago. It’s been silence on the topic since then, hopefully this move to Wordpress is a step towards joining the Fediverse.

The link to the original TechCrunch article doesn’t seem to be working, but here’s a mirror on Slashdot: https://m.slashdot.org/story/407458

Signal is open source. Go read the source or a write up describing what it does.

Signal doesn’t store your encryption key in the cloud and yet it supports e2ee messaging on multiple devices including desktop.

Telegram is not private messaging.

China will never rule Taiwan, they’re not gonna start a war with all their trading partners over an island. It’s a nationalist rallying cry, nothing more.

That’s the one everyone talks about. The ANH kiss is on the cheek, which is totally normal in many cultures.

China launched the teapot on a rideshare rocket that delivered 60 other payloads. It’s top secret, and the US Gov doesn’t want to publicize that the Chinese have developed a space tug capable of inserting a 200g teacup into a mars transfer orbit.

There’s a teacup orbiting the sun between Mars and Jupiter. There’s no evidence to the contrary, so it can’t reasonably be called false.

You’re not gonna find a self hosted solution as good as iCloud Photos, at least not yet. As a stop gap you can turn on advanced data protection on iCloud to significantly improve your privacy.

A statement is not an intervention

How can the people of Venezuela decide what they need when their government is rigging elections and violently cracking down on protests?

“He probably feels his base case for exit options land somewhere between a long stint at The Hague and being hanged by piano wire in Plaza Bolivar,”

Well, when you put it like that…

The US already does this

David S Pumpkins strikes again!

This is great! Account portability is one of the biggest reasons BlueSky gave for developing ATProto instead of using ActivityPub. This could be a way of getting them to switch to the standard and expand the fediverse in the process.

Not in Utica, no. It’s all Albany expression.

Not entirely sure what you mean by that. It deletes posts in the same way that any other ActivityPub server does, by federating the deletion request.

It’s up to the receiving servers to handle that request and delete the post. You can easily have an ActivityPub native server that doesn’t honor those requests.
