I have intentionally avoided purchasing a (so called) smart TV since they became a thing.
Part of the reason is that — they are spyware.
Apparently, there is now a court case about it.

I am happy to pay for it, but —
Is there a way I can have more than 100 repos on Codeberg?


How many Fediverse software use Markdown as its default text format — rather than HTML?
I think both PeerTube and Lemmy are Markdown native — rather than HTML.
Anything else?

What one person wants from an alternative to a Twitter:
• choice of home-feed algorithm,
• editable posts,
• ability to moderate replies

I will leave twitter/X when another platform gives me a timeline based on my own choice of algorithm, an unconditional edit button and the ability ...

This is an area I think we could improve on the Fediverse —
Nested Comments
This (in the attached screen-shot) is from someone on Twitter who is also on Mastodon and Bluesky.
He seems to be a fan of the nested comments UI on Bluesky.
We have some great applications on the Fediverse. They could be made even greater with this improvement.

I like the idea of having "fun" things that are part of (at least some of) the Fediverse.
The WAFRN idea of "bites" / "pokes" seems like one of them.

The HTTP-protocol is (also) a de facto layer-4 transport-layer-protocol.
It might have been intended to be a layer-7 application-layer-protocol, but — look at how people are using it.
Applications are built on top of the HTTP-protocol somewhat similarly to how people decades ago would have built applications on top of the TCP-protocol.
Even the Fediverse uses the HTTP-protocol in this way — as a layer-4 transport-layer-protocol.

In 2009, I join Twitter.
I make friends there.
I can see their posts.
Twitter has a Nazi problem.
