Divide and conquer is so terribly effective.

Edit: is it just that they are a German company?

Yes, they are.

Often times there’s just no reason to package a web app into an app container.

Why don’t you read the article?

I don’t think the problem with structures like the church is that it’s always an asshole that makes it to the top. It’s that there’s always a risk that one will make it.

I agree with your criticism about the Catholic Church (I wouldn’t call this the biggest problem though), but from what I’ve read, the current Pope is more of an asset than a liability on this topic.

Who cares what representatives of neoliberal governments and fossil fuel companies have to say about this? The Pope is not the biggest problem at the COP.

Advertising should be banned.

Can you provide some context or a link on the sustainable agriculture issue?

It’s really strong pepper spray, you spray it between you and the bear, towards the ground approx 10m from you I think. They do come with instructions though, please read them before use.

What’s the difference between black and brown bear poop?

Edit: it makes sense to make oneself heard, the worst thing that can happen is quietly walking around a corner and there’s a bear with two cubs close by.

Bear bells are a bit annoying and clapping or just talking to each other also works. Humans are not considered bait for bears and they will usually try to avoid you.

There are good books about avoiding bear attacks when in the backcountry.

Cognitive dissonance is really strong if you have to question the way you were living your whole life when questioning the current situation. This makes those people far more likely to be easy prey for far-right propaganda than to be waking up, I’m afraid.

Noone ever thinks about the lawyers

So it’s a browser?

You’d see comments and posts from their users on other instances that don’t block Meta.

It’s unclear how many users you would actually exclude, I think a lot of users who are on the fediverse right now don’t want to have anything to do with Meta.

As the fediverse grows, there will be different bubbles with not much interaction between those, mainly because some instances won’t be moderated while others will try to create discrimination free environments.

They pledge to defederate from Meta, I’d go one step further and defederate from any instance that federates with Meta.

They shouldn’t just defederate from Meta, they should defederate from any other instances that federate with Meta. Like a firewall against late stage capitalism

I think there should be an alliance of instances that defederate from any instance that federates with Meta.

It’s too late.
