It's to get around a bug on some platforms where the Referer header isn't set properly. Basically when you click the link in the app (maybe other platforms too idk), it can't set the Referer, so website statistics can't know what came from bsky. This was in their changelog. It used to already work correctly on desktop, though.
Not related to the specific post but is it me or does american media treat literally everything as "Breaking News"
Like nothing about this is urgent you can wait until the evening news to talk about it. You'll even have more information by then!
On the second point... I remember when moss had to make one, because of exactly that issue.
He should have told you that, it really isn't a new thing. It's also not an Ada thing, it's not her fault and it's really not unreasonable to expect mods to... actually be able to read all reports.
Is it for sure Microsoft?
.... The root of the thread you're replying's main body is stuff JSO has actually achieved.

Those last two points are just doomerism that is either
- Wrong and actively unhelpful, you're discouraging people from helping
- Right and useless since all it does is spread negativity. If it's all over, why make it worse for people?
Uhm... lemmy federates with kbin and a few others, but it also federates with mastodon and all the -key derivatives afaik
First, like the other thread said, eating bugy isn't a conspiracy. It's also not "subpar" or whatever, it's.. food.
Second, I never understand people's aversion to... food that isn't currently alive in your plate. I have eaten bugs, I've eaten a lot of plants, I've eaten a lot of different animals... it's all just food.
... you've not heard of singular they, a pronoun used in english by Shakespear himself, that existed before singular you?
"Oh, somebody forgot their jacket" has existed since forever.

It's (genuinely) interesting that big-time AI enthusiasts always assume that if you dislike AI, it's because you don't know how to use it (and not because they have different priorities or have conceptual issues with it or such). It was the same thing with crypto and NFTs.
I know a good amount of very skilled developers who tried AI several times in different contexts, and always found the tradeoffs much too bad to be worth it (in terms of accuracy, precision, cost, speed, whatever), and yet they still get "oh you just haven't tried my favorite AI tool".
