  • It is very difficult to motivate people to move to a different platform.

    Meta continues to do shitty things. I deleted all my accounts 10 years ago because of said shitty things. The list of shitty things keeps growing.

    I can try to be optimistic about the Streisand effect. But it would have to be towards positive experience with pixelfed. Enough people would need to move for it to not feel empty. Sort of like BlueSky during the election. Enough people frustrated with twitter, and (most importantly) see enough people, including celebrities, politicians and other influencers migrate to make it worth checking out.

    Edit to add: I very much would love to witness the downfall of meta and twitter. We need these alternatives. And as much as people hate commercialization, all of these alternative spaces need some marketing to make them viable.





  • 100% with this.

    I am all for more EV options, especially if it’s a compact car. But nobody cares about reveals. Just release them.

    I’ve been waiting a very long time. I told myself the next car I buy will be an EV. Well, my 10 year old car finally cost die to repair than it’s worth.

    My preferred car brand is quickly being killed off by Toyota (Subaru), and they have an absolute dogshit EV. I bought an EV, and I’m very happy with it. But the experience is not great. I will never buy a Tesla, and the other brands don’t have anything that makes me excited. I would be very excited about a Honda EV.









  • Looks like there’s a metasploit available. You can use that on your router to see if it’s susceptible. A quick google search indicates that this is only successful on older routers without input validation.

    In general, follow good cyber security hygiene, and update the firmware on your router. If your router no longer is supported by the vendor (no more firmware updates for vulnerabilities found), then it’s old and you should upgrade.
