@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net what the hell?! Google Chrome is neither a business nor a company. I mean, I agree that Google should probably be broken up but what the fuck is this got to do with Google Chrome, which is based on an open source Chromium which is itself as a fork of KHTML/Webkit?! 🤔 da fuq!’ Do we just not understand Google/Alphabwt anymore? 🤦‍♂️

Given the incredible damage social media has done to democracy and our mental health, I’d like to see it banned for anyone under 200 years old.

Forcing social media to open their algorithms: hostile to corporations
Forcing young people to not use social media: hostile to young people, helps prevent them from organizing
You think they did this for the benefit of the young people?

As drinkypoo pointed out above, it’s all about the algorithms. If social media wasn’t driven by advertising and engagement - if it was implemented as societal infrastructure for the well-being of all citizens and the financial profit of nobody - then it would be a great good in society. As it exists currently, it’s a Trojan horse whose belly is full of contagious cancer

In-reply-to » @doesnm No it's all good... I've just rebuilt it from master and it doesn't look like anything is broken:

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt You don’t generally call go build main.go or whatever. You generally call go build . or go build ./cmd/foo/... – Because you need to tell the compiler to build a whole package or a bunch of sub-packages + main. go run main.go only works for the simplest case.

In-reply-to » I don’t think calling the various PHP files making up “Timeline” a “Yarn pod” is accurate.

@bender@twtxt.net Perhaps it might be better to describe a “Pod” or “Yarn Pod” as a Web Application or Desktop/Mobile App that provides a good user experience to provide a decentralised set of capabilities for following and interactions with one or more Twtxt feeds? 🤔 By that definition, even Jenny would fit that bill 😉

The only reason that Yarn was ever referred to as a pod was because it supported multiple users.
