While they could put up weird images, they can’t change posts without everyones private keys.

HP doesn’t even sell the ink for my (relatively new) printer where I live.
Its on their U.S site, but I can’t order from that since it asks for a ZIP code.

I know, but the source for your statistic is Meta themselves.

I mean, looking at what python3 broke, they are some changes that were well needed. https://docs.python.org/release/3.0.1/whatsnew/3.0.html

I think it would be like xhtml, which broke compatibility with old versions of html, but was (and still is) supported by browsers.

All of instagram and threads.
Only parts of facebook are written in python because its really fucked up.

I honestly doubt that, It has no relevance – at all. I see screenshots of bluesky posts everywhere, but rarely see threads posts.

Its a bit charitable to call threads a monopoly since no one uses it.

Tumblr also downsized to 25 employees (including T&S). I don’t expect anything groudbreaking from them soon.

I’m surprised they’re still interested in ActivityPub.

Hot Take: This is good because its easier for people to leave threads, since they can still contact their friends on threads. I do think having most instances block them is also good, so people can have a choice (I personally don’t want threads).

None that I know of, but those are both abandoned and all the download links for them are very sketchy.

Interesting, https://suyu.dev/ warns against doing it.

Glitch-Soc is still around?

As long as local backups don’t go away this looks fine.

It was obvious, don’t worry.
I just thought of the joke, and thought it was funny.

I think lemmy is important right now, but we still have stuff like piefed and mbin that works. A lemmy-less lemmyverse is possible, but kinda pointless.

does mastodon’s search even work? Unless a post has a hashtag its near-unindexable.

If you’re very paranoid, try flashing a custom ROM to it.

Unfortunately, they have no obligation to remove individual posts/comments unless they contain personally identifying information (iirc).

Do they delete them, or overwrite them?

Try overwriting instead.
