are we looking at a work slowdown from the digital serfs of x?
So I guess 'Nicole' is a bot or something? Feeling FOMO
that is the wrong mindset for a boycott. no amazon period from now until forever. if shows go under so much the better. take your show business elsewhere.
You don't have to replace the html web. If a new system was sufficiently fun to create with, people might use it for all kinds of cool new projects. Kind of like Flash used to be. You'd go there for a specific thing you heard about.
A new web free of cruft might turn out to be cheaper to develop for, and that might appeal to the corporate types. Maybe useful for intranet type apps where the browser is specified anyway and you have a captive audience.
Ok maybe off topic, why does a web browser have to be one of the most complicated software artifacts on earth? So expensive to write and maintain that only a few orgs with huge developer resources can do it?
What would it look like to start from scratch with a massively simplified standard for specifying UIs, based on all we've learned since html/css was invented? A standard that a few developers could implement in a few weeks using off the shelf libraries. Rather than reimplement every bizarre historical detail in html/css, have a new UI layout system that's simple and consistent, and perhaps more powerful.
I'll add to this that when I first registered at mastodon.social, my default view was some fancied up multi-column monstrosity. I managed to turn most of that off, but it was super confusing at first. Start simple and let users add complexity.
Also agree about the empty feed. At least default to the explore tab. Way better would be a tool to help build your feed based on interests. There are various tools for that, but a user shouldn't have to leave the app and google around to discover them.
A tool to read your phone contacts and search for corresponding mastodon accounts would be intrusive (some would even say unprincipled), but many users would welcome it.
Good movie! Anora the stripper and the bodyguard are two sides of the same coin - competent yet powerless underlings warped by their relationship with the powerful rich.
