I've always liked threadiverse, since it describes what's unique about this aspect of the Fediverse.

Something like a removable "mobile chip" for a laptop could address this problem. Framework could probably pull it off, but I don't know if the market incentives it.

We (the gaming community) say this every time, but microtransactions and lootboxes have spread like viruses because gamers are buying them.

I hate predatory pricing on principle, but whale votes count for a lot more.

I would bury a bunch of identical time capsules all over the world, each with the location of the other time capsules and a detailed timeline of increasingly terrible global events.

The later it's dug up, the more credible it'll be.

Will you publish the aggregate results in any way?

How do you "do" c/savedyouaclick? I've summarized links in a comment before, but I don't know what would be the point of also mentioning c/savedyouaclick when I do that.

Yup. And all of these are unfortunately big enough barriers to keep the majority of internet users on the default. Because Discord has a decent phone app and is reliable enough right now.

They are, however, more likely to call the cops to report a "suspicious person" "loitering" around the neighborhood.

Then couch-hunting turns into threading the needle on a law enforcement interaction on eggshells, because maybe the officers who pull up are scared of you and have received more "warrior" training than de-escalation training.

I appreciate this just as an earnest, non-aggro response.

This seems like a great way to get shot if you don't look like the right kind of person.
