Blacksky.community has at least been down today as well, and is still not loading on my end. Seems unlikely that it would be completely unrelated.
@fresseng @stux
Edit: @eurosky.social say they remained online, though they admit that the practical benefits of this are limited when Bluesky is down. I can currently only access their post claiming to be online via Mastodon, as it is not available on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:ooensn4mr5mhznzypvxelfa3/post/3mjmwi4j2es2d

Blacksky also appears to be having problems. This might be obvious to those who understand things better than I do, but my impression was that they were going quite far to be as independent as possible. @stux

Speaking of problems with social media that Mastodon has yet to solve. :)

Gotcha - it just seemed overly hostile especially as I clearly didn't understand the discussion as well as I thought I did.

I guess like me he was oblivious to the broader agenda of this poster. The whole debate looks very different before and after learning more about @carnage4life.
I maintain that it's made in good faith, but that of course does not mean that it's a good point.

Yeah, I based my judgment on the posts I have seen doing well on fedi as well as a quick screening of the profile mostly going after MTG. Clearly I was wrong here.
I still think @scottjenson is worth taking seriously, though he (as me) seemingly failed to be a good judge of character in this case. Shit happens without it being evidence of bad faith. @froztbyte @zzt @fasterandworse

Yeah, I was running out of characters to express my point properly there. It's clearly bad for influencers and those who thrive on algorithmic social media, including a lot of what journalism has become. I think it's good for good investigative journalists who don't post a lot, but who produce quality content when they do.
I think it's more fair to say that algorithmic social media has been bad for journalism, but those who thrived there will have to reinvent here.

Claiming the argument is not made in good faith by a serious person seems to miss the mark pretty badly. Scott Jenson does not match this description, and we should do better.
Similarly, @carnage4life does not appear to be some huge AI evangelist. [Edit: It seems I'm probably wrong here]
To me the story here is that Mastodon gives less voice to central nodes in the network, instead distributing the conversation. That may indeed be bad for journalists, but maybe good for us.

If anyone in or around #Copenhagen or #Oslo need spare parts for a #fairphone3, I have a device with a broken core module where everything else should be working fine. Happy to give away parts to anyone who needs it!
The camera is upgraded to 3+. The battery has some sticker marks but works well, and the plastic back cover is slightly damaged but stays attached without issue.
Alternatively if anyone has a broken #fairphone_3 with a functional core module I'd be interested in buying! :)

I picked up right away that the guy was a lousy farmer with no cows, so pretty happy about that!
I guess it helps being a Scandinavian who understands German, has Scottish friends, and knows enough Dutch to know what a bauer is. There's a lot of words from all over the place.

Free as in beer, not as in liberty. It's not free software.

That said, I recently made the same change. LibreWolf was not for me, and FireFox is no longer for me, so I'm on @Vivaldi until @servo is ready.
