Maybe it’s natural selection 🤔 everyone who could do it was just like 👍 yep I’m good 👍 and never had any kids.
If your weight increased to 20x your current weight, without changing proportions, you would be about 2.7x your current height, width, and depth.
…just like OP’s mum.
US, specifically under “Social” apps.
Did you read the comments? The dev himself addressed the concerns, to the point where the OP updated his post (emphasis is mine)
Edit to say this blew up. I didn’t realise I was kicking as big a hornet’s nest and haven’t read all the comments yet.
To be clear, what I don’t like about this and other provisions in the terms is the language and implications around data use. I’ve no problem with ads being shown - I want developers to get paid for the work they do and that makes it possible for users to have “free” access to software if they can’t afford to purchase.
I also want to add the response from Boost’s dev below to make sure it’s visible. You’ll see that it is boilerplate but required by Google and was present in Boost for reddit. I just hadn’t seen it because I purchased it immediately based on a recommendation. It doesn’t make me happy about it but does remove some doubts I was having about the direction Boost is heading.
Will I use it? Absolutely not.
Do I hope that it gets used by others? Yeah, at least a bit. Because if Meta assigns more engineers to work on fedi tech like improving ActivityPub that would be a huge win for the fediverse in general. That assumes they actually contribute to open source, but Meta/FB actually has a reasonable track record there.
I think you misplaced the apostrophe. If you think it’s just going to be one American I have some news for you.
Does this point to an inherent problem with the federated approach; i.e. that every instance has to be able to handle the load of the content on all other instances it federates with?
Pardon if I’m misunderstanding something. But it seems like a big barrier to entry for new instances if e.g. an instance with 100 users has to sync the contents from 100,000 other users to work properly. As the fediverse keeps growing and the requirements to host instances keep increasing, won’t it end up where only a few instances have the money / resources to handle the load?
Just like the hanging magnet is pulling on the car, the car magnet is also pulling on the hanging apparatus. Unfortunately for the car, the apparatus is attached to it, so it all cancels out.
