True, but if server owner pulls the plug, all the content you have there is gone. They can also unilaterally delete your posts.

I guess my point is ownership isn’t as important as control.

SoundCloud vapes content and entire accounts all the time.

No reason given?

Mine is fully backed up.

Lol no. That said, I’m on Threads too so whatevs.

Each instance has complete control over what is posted on it. The only way to truly own your posts is to set up your own instance and interact only with communities on it.

That’s classic British humor.

I used to subscribe to this blog. The takes were so bad I’d deliberately share the links the author was railing against.

To no one’s surprise.

Yeah I wasn’t referring to those.

Hence why I’m leaving the Debian / Ubuntu based distros

Ubuntu non-LTS packages are pretty up to date.

I guess this explains Guyana’s Metal Shark orders.

In many architectures in which certificates are used, a client with a valid certificate is a trusted client, so a certificate falling into the wrong hands is problematic.

On sites like Twitter or Mastodon, you mainly just have one feed based on the people or tags you follow

X has had lists, which allow multiple feeds for the same account, for a very long time now.

This doesn’t offer anything in terms of individual user personalization.

Reddit has the multireddit feature.

All of the above have to be set up manually, but Threads changes your feed in real time within the same session based on your interactions.

I’d have left too. This is insane.

Well that’s not worrying at all, is it? Is it?
