@rook branding is on point, Goldfish is a perfect name. Avatars are already in the NFT hexagon format. Exciting developments.

@sixohsix I hadn't noticed (literally read far enough to confirm my fears — "activitypub" — and closed the tab.)I guess the good news is I probably won't see much of that in my TL since everyone will go rabid on defederating it.I would complain about people doing the right thing for the wrong reasons, but I guess we just talked about that kinda, so I'll just shut up and take the dub.

@rook honestly I like TikTok. Between the thirst traps and cringe, I learn new recipes, how to clean my house, and common failures found in home inspection. And I'm not even against the thirst traps.

@sixohsix Attention is a person's primary resource, all other resources are marshaled by it. I couldn't stand having something designed to obliterate that in my TLs. I mean if someone's into that they should be free to engage with it I guess, but personally if it showed up here I'd have more of an issue with it than aggressive advertising in all the TLs.

@rookPixelFed and PeerTube have been a thing for a while. In theory you could post short videos on instances of those. Why is this different? Because it's specifically trying to appeal to the people hooked on DikTok-like platforms?@sixohsix
