Facebook's Days Are Numbered
(lemmy.ca)
Aw man, I'm on Diaspora and I didn't even recognise the logo.
Reminds me of the logo of a certain community college...
E Pluribus Anus for life
"There's a conspiracy here."
Yeah that's a pretty generic logo
I joined Diaspora back when Google+ went tits up. Is Anything actually happening over there?
It's pretty dead, a lot of pods has closed down last year and it continues to shrink, they could maybe reverse the process by supporting ActivityPub or other additional protocol, but they have refused, and diaspora* protocol hasn't gained any additional traction, sooo..
As much as Facebook sucks, these things will never replace it.
Just clicking through them, it's apparent it suffers from the same problem lemmy has. You have to read things and follow instructions and then choose an instance....
Yeah, you lost everyone at the first step of having to follow instructions. People just want a Sign Up button, and that's it. That's the only step they're willing to go through.
If, after clicking Sign up, they then have to figure out which instance (whatever that is) they have to choose, they'll just quit right there.
Such projects desperately need some professional UX/UI people involved. They always feel like they're designed by back-end devs.
I also can't imagine there being any difference to the instances as the concept of "local" doesn't really make sense like it does with Lemmy. Maybe they should obfuscate the instance selection and the sign up process just puts you onto a random instance or one that's best suited by geographical location.
As much as Facebook sucks these things will never replace it.
Here we go again with the inaccurate fortune telling. Things can change, the code, apps and instances can improve.
I hope they do and replace Facebook. But in their current iteration, they won't. That's all I'm saying.
Thats why it’s important to avoid using the term “never”
🙄
I know, right?
Gotta love ELSTER, my favorite social media platform.
Context
ELSTER, short for ELektronische STeuerERklärung (electronic tax return), is the official German software/web page for creating and submitting your tax return. It has the same logo as Diaspora.
Elster is also the German term for magpie.
The logo:
The logo for a tax company being an asshole is perfect!
Omg so many light mode screenshots even against a dark mode backdrop. I literally can't look at this right now... Maybe some other day.
No they aren’t, not till the boomers finally die off.
I see older people on Friendica.
I see dead people.
Walking around like regular people. They don't know they're dead.:-)
Perhaps they never lived.
