Except all those times where you learnt how to do something when you set it up years ago, and haven’t touched it since because it just bloody works. Then when you need to upgrade to a new machine you have to learn it all again.

Been using Linux for thirty years and it still happens.

Wait around for two hours in case it comes back.

Guns don’t kill people. Cats do.

It has all of them, but it’s bare bones and doesn’t scale well. The instance where I have an account regularly falls over - sometimes for months at a time. Most of my friends there haven’t returned.

I don’t feel it’s currently a viable Facebook alternative, and it would need monumental amounts of work for it to become one.

It’s activitypub, but can be configured to also use AT as well.

I have used Friendica. It might appear useful as a base for a fedi-linkedIn, but not in its current state. It does the basics, but only barely, and it’s not particularly stable. The instance I’m on falls over regularly (for days or weeks), despite the admin’s best efforts. It feels like a new project, instead of something that has been under development since 2010.

If you’re using WordPress, the activitypub plugin does this also. It’s good to have choices.

Sadly, the first thing the defending lawyers will point out is where were the parents in all this? Why was he able to turn off the parental controls, and why didn’t the parents notice?

If I removed ActivityPub from my blog, I’d get no readership whatsoever. It’s not like search works anymore.

Filters already mute keywords and can be set for specific periods of time. AFAIK*, subscribed blocklists were rejected because they could be used to target minority members by bad actors. How are custom feeds different from lists?
