I was on vacation recently and Apple Maps gave a weirdly circuitous route from our hotel to a restaurant. I checked Google Maps and it showed the direct route I expected, so I went with that.

Google Maps routed me on to a street that was closed due to construction, Apple Maps was smart enough to route around the construction.

I expect general parity between Apple and Google Maps, I had not expected Apple to have better data.

Execution is what matters, not ideas. Anyone can half-ass an idea and say “I did it first” but whoever comes along and does it right is who gets remembered.

Copyright law? One Thousand and One Nights is in the public domain.

To be clear, this creates a separate Pixelfed account, it just uses your Mastodon info for quick profile setup and authentication.

Document document document.

Also, the nice thing about libraries, frameworks, and CMSs is that they already have documentation. If it seems like a pain to learn one of those, imagine how much worse it would be for someone to learn custom code that doesn’t have any resources on Google.

Here’s a Masto post from an ex-employee:

Thinking about making a “I was part of the Tumblr activityPub federation project ask me how it ended” t-shirt and wear it on my PFP here.

The CEO posted this reply to Twitter, acknowledging that Meta had beaten Tumblr to the Fediverse.

Here’s a screenshot of a post suggesting it’s not a high priority.

I tried that but the app froze

docker-compose gives host names to everything, so you can just use those. If it’s local, then whoever is setting it up needs to give it a DNS record.

Do people these days still know O’Reilly books? I’ve seen a few posts over the past couple years that are essentially asking “how did you figure out how to program without Stack Overflow?”

Neither of those assertions are true, I don’t think you’re arguing from an informed position.

I’m more comfortable with macOS than Windows and find many of the UX patterns on Windows to be grating. It doesn’t mean Windows is insane, just that I’m more accustomed to the macOS patterns.

FWIW the Dock can be hidden, and the menu bar at the top can hide as well when an app is in full screen mode.

To answer your title question, plenty of people do. I follow my friends there and have lots of conversations. Mastodon doesn’t have a lot of famous people, but I didn’t really use Twitter to follow famous people either.

You might want to try FediFinder (when it’s working, they are dealing with Elon’s changes like the API shutdown) to find your Twitter follows on Mastodon.

In addition to the ActivityPub plugin, I would add the Friends plugin. When you have both, Friends will let you follow and respond to people via your WP site. At some point I want to make my Masto account followers-only and make my WP blog my public ActivityPub identity.

Google’s promotion-pack culture strikes again. You don’t get promoted at Google for “maintaining a successful product and keeping people happy.” You do get promoted for launching a new product, even if it competes with another well-liked Google product.

So if you want to be successful at Google, you launch a new chat service.

What tags are you using? Android or iOS?

That’s what I have, along with armcrest2mqtt for triggering things when the doorbell rings.
