I agree, rather I was surprised that threads grew big enough for people to be trying to migrate away from it.

In my area / friend circles, I don’t know anyone that continued to use Threads after the initial launch. However, there are people using Mastodon, Bluesky, and Twitter

The tooltip explanation for the handles should help, since that’s a very common point of confusion.

especially for more mainstream users looking for an alternative to X or Threads.

That many people use Facebook Threads? That sounds like saying “especially for more mainstream users looking for an alternative to Reddit or New Digg.”

I think it would be nice as an opt-in feature in the user settings

Interestingly, mine was still enabled from the last time I must have toggled that setting.

If they do screw around, they could just train on everything without asking anyone

No problem :)

Do you fall under the affected group? Maybe it’s only listed for those who do

Date

As of April 24 you’ll be feeding the Octocat unless you opt out

Current scope

The code locker’s revised policy applies to Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ customers, as of April 24. Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise users are exempt thanks to the terms of their contracts. Students and teachers who access Copilot will also be spared.

To opt out (link edited by me to make it clickable)

Those affected have the option to opt out in accordance with “established industry practices” – meaning according to US norms as opposed to European norms where opt-in is commonly required. To opt out, GitHub users should visit github.com/settings/copilot/features and disable “Allow GitHub to use my data for AI model training” under the Privacy heading.

I want this image to show up under failed compilations. Like this

edit: I think that’s a runtime error actually, instead

fatal error: iostream: No such file

Both factors are related, I couldn’t find the article I was looking for but this one touches on it too. There’s a section for cell phones specifically

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galápagos_syndrome

The term “Galápagos syndrome” was originally coined to refer to Japanese 3G mobile phones, which had developed a large number of specialized features that were widely adopted in the Japanese market, but were unsuccessful abroad.[6][7] While the original usage of the term was to describe highly advanced phones that were incompatible outside of Japanese networks, as the mobile phone industry underwent drastic changes globally, the term was used to emphasize the associated anxiety about how the development of Japanese mobile phones and those in the worldwide economy went along different paths.

When a technology advances quickly and gets adopted in the local region (ex. Japan), it can be difficult to change when other parts of the world move forward with a different standard.

The opposite can also happen, where a region is slow to change and then haphazardly moves forward when the benefits are proven elsewhere. American payment systems for example

How long did Digg last with that again

I used Trakt in the past, but nothing recently.

If I started tracking again, the main use case would be looking up a person and getting a quick list of where I’ve seen or heard the person before. I don’t know what sites do that.

Otherwise it can also be useful if a friend asks if I’ve seen anything good recently.

No ads.

Incredible range of customization and third party app options.

If I need to go on new Reddit for something, I get exhausted by all of their bs very quickly

Disinformation is bad no matter which side it appears to be “helping”. It would be just as easy for the other side to intentionally spread disinformation on Wikipedia in order to discredit it.

Hmm, could we do away with months and just number the weeks from top to bottom? Or better yet, number the days.

Happy 2026-77 everyone!

At the same time, weeks do let us organize our working and non working schedules neatly.

I don’t ask for permission because it’s almost always yes, but I will delete it if the person asks.

I like to leave a comment because it helps people discover the smaller communities

Does it? I haven’t seen complaints about bricking, and limine should make it trivial to undo a bad update. It wouldn’t need a redownload

Also these stats aren’t based on downloads

I’m not familiar with Manjaro, what was wrong with it?

Limine is also a good reason for people who want the benefits of Arch but are worried about bad updates. Being able to rollback to an earlier snapshot in the boot menu is nice for new users
