It’s the same with all the reporting about trump. It would really be better for all if this was reduced to the relevant stuff.

Woosh much? (Sorry, but I knew all that already)

Good time to become vegan. They can’t be against that!

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

1. Embrace:

They implement ActivityPub and connect to all the available servers. A load of new users will see the content here and all the communities here will be absolutely flooded with new content and users.

2. Extend:

ActivityPub will be extended. Many new features will be added, that don’t really match the standard, but they are mostly useful so some developers will try to add them to let’s say Lemmy. They won’t be blr to develop new features on their own and some stuff with threads will always be broken or half baked. Threads users will belittle the users here, some will maybe go there, cause it just works and is otherwise the same.
New users at the same time will most likely go directly to threads cause it’s backed by a giant company, always works and has more features.

3. Extinguish:

They will cut the federation.
Communities here will feel empty and most users will just leave. Only the hard core will stay and that won’t be sustainable. The fediverse becomes even less attractive for new users and will devolve into a niche community.

I like how it’s a full stack but years of experience for each individual part position.

Yeah, just have 10 years of Javascript, C++ and rust. Also you must prove to have designed and built huge systems of microservices. And also be a product owner with your customer-facing awesome communication skills (which they have listed twice btw.).

No biggie.

Oh and also we won’t even give hints about pay, but we do up to the minimum legal requirements in non-financial benefits.
