No they dont, not with the current american administration.

They finally found a bagholder!

Theres a “do not disturb at night” option on all modern phones nowadays for people who dont want to become unreachable

yaaaaaaaaay, and it only took them 5 years of discussions!

Well, Matrix is all of that already, it uses its own protocol also called matrix, but its properly federated(unlike bluesky) and its open source. It also has a big userbase. The Matrix protocol is seen as a honorary member of the Fediverse. I think using activitypub may be a bad fit for real time messaging, so them using their own protocol makes sense. There are also XMPP server and clients, who do similar things to matrix, also federated and open source, however they are more like Whatsapp/Telegram etc.

Oi, you got a loicence to pay that ransom fee?

But…they can already do all of that? And nothing is stopping you from having a secret offshore account in a foreign currency, instead of cryptocoins.

Wow, look! A new place that controls critical flow of information, managed by for profit venture capital! How Wholesome😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

haha. I hope they will. I hope that this “inspires” companies to produce more locally again. Pretty please?

I wonder what that means for google operating in russia. Since the demanded sum is so large, do they get their assets seized, like for example authorities sacking google phones? Or does this have absolutely no consequences?

for the record, that is $10,779,224,060,605,347,000,000,000,000,000,000 (american) dollars

Tor if you dont want your fediverse server + ISP to know who you are on the fediverse. Other than that, fediverse people are not likely to use google trackers, so you should be safe without having to make new accounts constantly. Noscript for all other websites, gets rid of trackers very effectively, but a bit annoying because you have to whitelist the javascript you need.

This is an extremely important tool for moderating large forums, thank you for working on this! This is one of those mod tools that some people may need to enable large scale moderated federated forums!
