This argument hinges on the premise that churches aren’t evil to begin with.

Here’s an interesting video about Zuckerberg’s rebranding:

Why Zuckerberg’s Rebrand Shouldn’t Distract Us

Hmm… Touché.

the TikTok of the fediverse

Gee just what the Fediverse needed…

Not really. It would only require the new user on the new instance to be able to “own” posts and comments made by the old user on the old instance.

For example, the old user account could transfers its posting and commenting history to the new account (and the new account would be asked to accept the transfer of course).

When it’s done, whoever visits the new account, will see posts and comments made from the old account up until the transfer, and the old account’s posting and commenting history would be blank.

Then If the old account were to continue posting afterwards for some odd reason, it would build a new posting and commenting history from that point on. Or the transfer could become effective only after the old account is deleted permanently.

I don’t know exactly how any of this is implemented, but it would definitely not require monkeying with the actual past posts and comments.

It’s not reputation or being recognized, it’s having an unbroken record of posts and comments, for myself and for others checking out my profile. I want my old comments and posts ported to my new account and deleted from the old, so that whoever checks my new profile sees all I’ve posted with all my old accounts.

Or said another way, the only thing that should change when I migrate my account is the @server part of the name and nothing else. And it should be trivially easy to do too. To my knowledge, this is not possible at the moment.

I don’t think there is an account migration tool yet.

I am in the same boat: I want to move out of SDF but I can’t really because I want to keep the community I moderate and my account’s posting history. I mean I could certainly create a new account and pass the moderating rights from the old to the new, but I’d still be starting from scratch posting-history-wise.

So I’m holding off until account migration is finally a thing.

Joe Rogan would have you believe this “joke” goes down well in comedy clubs.

But I’m not buying this: I get insult humor and I don’t mind getting insulted when it’s funny. But Hinchcliffe’s Puerto Rico thing is just a straight insult. I don’t find anything remotely funny in his “joke” at all. Do you? Is there any redeemable comedic value in it that I’m missing here? Honest question.

I think Hinchcliffe made a simple mistake: he thought “How can I crack a joke about a part of the USA, that is not a state, doesn’t have federal voting rights and is full of despicable assholes?” But the racism kicked in at the last moment and he went “Puerto Rico!” instead of DC

Why do all fascists have that weird breeding obsession?

They’re control freaks. The ultimate control is controlling life.

Surely you meant “Chinese officials knock on doors to find knocked up women.”

Besides the subject matter, this video makes me sea-sick. I don’t know what it is with this trend of zooming the video in and out to punctuate the narrator’s delivery, but this one really takes the cake. I couldn’t even watch it to the end and had to look away to listen to it instead.

Here’s my ambition: be there for my family and enjoy life with them for the fixed number of hours I have on this dirtball. Working overtime isn’t compatible with my plan. Nobody goes to their grave thinking “I should have worked harder”.

But you do you…

Not really. Only shaked my head in disbelief.

Have you ever seen a TikTok video? Why on Earth do we want that on the Fediverse? Not everything that exists deserves to be copied.
