You. They’re booing you.

They’re forcing a decision between two less desirable solutions when a better one already existed solely because it enables them to sell more shit. Removal of the 3.5mm jack is enshittification on a hardware level and people shouldn’t go around making excuses for it.

Okay? You’re not the one asking for a headphone jack tho??? Pointless comment.

Machines. Should. Not. Think.

I really don’t see how we could state this any more clearly.

My god you’re thick. The point is that those are exactly the sort of people who are doing this shit.

this is the most bitchless thing i’ve read all week, congratulations

Handles do exist, they’re just optional and most channers don’t use them.

Mastodon tried and it’s had some moderate success, but because it’s completely devoid of algorithms, users have a harder time discovering people/accounts/mindless entertainment. That’s the only reason I can think of as to why Bluesky took off so much faster.

I’m sure that’s a factor, but I can think of another reason. Decision paralysis when picking instances and frontends has been cited quite often as a substantial hurdle.
