Kan være at trusselen er nok

Godt spørsmål. Det er sikkert fult mulig at amerikansk dominans innen digital infrastruktur og programvare kan utnyttes av de i en ev handelskrig. Enten ved å skru av eller nedgradere tjenester. Men det hadde vært et ekstremt kraftig grep, vet ikke om de er tjent med å gå så langt.

Unsolicited advice (sorry); what made the most difference for me was uninstalling the native YouTube-app, instead install socialfocus.app and force myself to only interact with YouTube through the browser. Hiding shorts, feed etc with SocialFocus made for a more healthy relationship with YouTube.

I am so sick of everything constantly vying for my attention

No idea how well it runs on PS5 but I’d definitely say FF9, if I had to pick just one. FF7 is a lovely game but I hindsight I think it unfairly overshadows 9

Then again I get that with the custom feeds here, so might be there is no conflict wrt what I want and what you’re saying

This might be a bad take, but I’m not sure I agree that getting earlier pigeonholed is a good thing 😅 I’ve started disabling the “feed” in many SoMe-apps because the app gets overeager when thinks it has pinned down my interests. I want more time to explore

Hadde lignende utfordring i revers, kjøpte en bolig med piano stående i stua. Selger spurte om vi ville ha det med på kjøpet, og selv om jeg ikke kan spille piano, så takket jeg ja til det. Gratis (gammelt, ustemt) piano, liksom! Det var litt av en operasjon å få det ut av hus til slutt 😅

I find the notion of value is difficult to quantify even for myself. I can find myself liking a post that is take-it-or-leave-it filler content. Like something humorous or zingy. In that regard I am probably signaling through engagement that I want more of this. But I’m not sure I actually do.

Yeah customizable feeds makes sense in that regard.

Seems there’s also sort of a follow-for-a-follow market right now so I guess there is a gold rush/land grab going on. And as you say, how much then are followers “worth” down the line? Is it more about getting yourself into “valueable” feeds?

Akimbo Macs!

Currently listening to Vessels - Dilate which strikes me as good coding music open.spotify.com/album/5jZFMp...

Oh my so that’s what the ➕ button is for!

Det er jo ikke en stor brukergruppe det gjelder heller nødvendigvis, ofte så handler det om noen få med gamle enheter eller OS. Jeg noen ganger lurt på hvor liten den gruppen må være før det lønner seg heller å bare kjøpe ny maskinvare til de enn å betale en utvikler til å fikse feilen.
