@atomicpoet Rough edges galore:If my browser isn't full-width, there's no sign of the Reply text area. Otherwise presentation looks "right".Replying to a big thread tosses my message to the bottom of my browser (seems to disappear)... have to scroll all the way down to continue w a 2nd msg. under it.

Please show me an example of a traditional website that integrates fedi participation links.This is lifeblood for 'engagement'. Fedi devs must think that way or it will flounder.

@atomicpoet Some of this stuff is amatuer-level mistakes. But the basic concept itself is not well thought-out and needs a re-work.Can you imagine if 100 sites popped up all sporting the identical Twitter logo? Or if one of the copycats cut deals w some news sites to lure activists onto the site via featured articles? And those readers didn't realize the domain they were clicking was different than the one they thought they were using? Holy cow.

@web3isgreat One case where #greenwashing is not profitable.

@thenewoil We should use entirely different terms for repositories that aren't curated. Call it "dumping ground" or something...

@rvawonk 2022 was also the year #electrification became a mainstream policy objective, with major legislation at the state and federal levels.But I'm sure the fossil fuel industry has nothing to do with this. /s

@publius @rvawonk The meaning of electrification has shifted from "provide basic service" to "supply all/most energy needs" or to shift direct fossil fuel consumption to electric.

@Teri_Kanefield Haven't the courts and the FCC given Fox a pass so far by accepting their claim they are "only entertainment" and/or they can knowingly mislead the public?This is all fucked up. The legal profession fucked it up.

@Teri_Kanefield Dominion sued over reputational harm... And then took money from Fox WITH NO REQUIREMENT OF A PUBLIC RETRACTION!!!!Bullshit!!!!How can a court of "justice" agree to that?!

@Teri_Kanefield Correct, corporation Dominion is OK with Fox's (a communications corp) general aims against the democratic process as long as they can get paid. No retraction necessary. @jennycohn The court facilitated a racketeering transaction against democracy.

@thenewoil And he's driving a Tesla, too. That thing will totally rat him out wherever he goes.

@catvalente Yep. #CambridgeAnalytica jolted the frankenstein monster to life on the political stage.They did it by raiding private conversations to figure out exactly what each individual wanted to hear, and that's what they gave them.#facebook #meta

@UROCKlive1 I don't think #DeSantis is a serious candidate. He is running a campaign to move the #OvertonWindow and make Trump look good.

@rms Poverty and #pollution (esp. heavy metals) are two of the biggest factors in crime rates.Western liberals had some regard for the poverty aspect, until they stopped citing it sometime in the 1990s and turned to expanding police forces and prisons.

@JordanRoberts Harper was the one that had reams of environmental data shredded surreptitiously. (Yes, destroyed.) He was the reason scientists hit the streets in protest...https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/canadian-scientists-open-about-how-their-government-silenced-science-180961942/

@StillIRise1963 Then the Internet became a vast teach-in, and later the far right rose up to kick sand in everyone's eyes.These objects, the old encyclopedia and dictionary, can be viewed as the products of innocence or quiet repression. But I don't know how "innocent knowledge" can be a thing.

@cwebber My saying: Most things do not belong on the Internet.Imagine if we put wheels on everything, and expected it all to navigate the Interstate.
