It’s taco Tuesday! Hope you get to eat some tacos today. Have an amazing day 🌮🌮🌮
What we have here is a failure to launch. Dammit.
It has to be a problem with the date, bot won’t work after midnight. It’s eather Cinderella or a gremlin. Next attempt will be before midnight, if that posts it will be a stopgap solution at least while I work out the issues. Maybe I can check the dark web for bot viagra.
If it’s a problem with the date, would it work on 07/07?
Yeah that’s what I’m thinking. Could it be that you have to do American dates?
Thought I’d join the masses over here…it’s a lot busier, haha!
Fresh meat!
Welcome!
tastes like pork
The best meat’s in the rump!
Yeah nah the crackle is the best bit.
With Reddit’s changes (albeit I think more people thought it things would be more dramatic than they have been), and Twitter’s continuing shit show, alongside Facebook’s shadow of it’s shadow of its former self… do we think we’re seeing or are in the middle of the end of social media in a large sense?
It’s been interesting seeing the recent stuff that’s happened. Like there’s Mastodon as a Twitter replicate, Lemmy for Reddit, Tumblr is still Tumblr (a lot of Twitter and Reddit users migrated to Tumblr recently, it’s a lot of fun over there. We still don’t allow porn, but if it’s artistic like a photograph or in a movie it’s allowed but there are mature filters for like nusity, gore, etc).
There’s a MySpace replicate called HeySpace. It’s actually pretty cool, as someone who was on MySpace as a scene/emo kid.
But yeah it seems social media is imploding. I’m curious what the future of the Internet will be.
Seeing how younger people use social media is actually quite interesting.
My kids use it to share funny crap with their friends. Pretty much what email was back in the late 90’s early 00’s.
They don’t really use for posting or communicating. Just sharing.
Their interactions with friends are video calls and meetups.
We may be seeing the end of less savvy user, which tbh is a good thing.
Should clarify: by less savvy I mean “People who do not actively seek out social interactions online unless it is via a platform thrust under their nose as a massive zeitgeist”
I’ve been farting around on the internet since fredmail, I shall continue farting long after the corporate monoliths have died
I’ve often said that one of the worst inventions was the smart phone, but I think social media has a lot to explain for itself as well. I was discussing this with the wifey the other day, saying how Instagram seems to be one of the few that people are still actively turning to (and I guess TikTok?). Both of those platforms really blur the definition of “social” media. It doesn’t seem like they’re widely used to communicate with people they know (vaguely or otherwise), but rather give this faux connection with celebrities, causes or anything else that some people seem to deem as “important.”
seems like vaguely interactive television
