I'm surprised no one mentioned Facebook.
I recall using MSN as far as in to 2009, but the friends I was connected with migrated to Facebook when their chat feature rolled out.
What do taxi drivers have to do with it?
Haven't used it, just know it exists.
Isn't that because it was spread by the British in the first place?
I'm happy for them. Immich, along with Nextcloud, was the driving force behind my getting in to self hosting - getting away from the ridiculous and increasing subscription prices associated with keeping family photos and documents.
It has come an incredibly long way in the time I've been using it. I've kicked them a donation or two, a first for me with OSS, because it continued to provide so much value for me.
I had read earlier that Alex was hoping to transition to working on this full time and I am happy he has been able to see that realized in - what appears to be - a positive manner.
Not in a place to watch the video, what's the tl;dw?
Why did it take so long to get this implemented during Biden's term? Why are we only seeing this just before the next election. I ask as an outsider to the states.
Thought he was dissing someone named "AL" Tupac at first.
I came to explore Lemmy with the migration after Reddit's API changes. Baconreader was my app of choice, and it died with the change.
I didn't have any anger against Reddit - there was no righteous "fuck you!" in my actions - but the reason I stayed on Lemmy and very rarely touch Reddit is because the concept of the fediverse really speaks to me. I want to see a more decentralized internet succeed and so that is where I will spend my time, niche as it is.
I agree with your preference for forum/community style.
But I think the purpose of microblogging is to follow a personality, rather than a topic or community. And users that share there do so to cultivate a following, which would be harder on Reddit/Lemmy (only ones that I can think of who do that successfully are onlyfans users).
Matter of opinion. I would rather have an empty feed than have to scroll past all the memes I have no interest in.

I think the CEO firing you meant that he wasn't bluffing.
