  • Big agree with this. One of the clients I messed with had a feature like this and it’s really nice. But we need something server-side to allow federated communities to pull from each other to create a river from separate streams as it were.

    I follow lots of the the same communities across instances and that means often I’m seeing repeated posts, sometimes from different authors just to get the aggregate of things. This would be a huge boon to the usability too.

    The existence of the article you’re literally commenting on directly refutes what you’re saying here. Like you’re in a thread because of news that demonstrates that the opposite of what you’re saying here is actually true.

    If you need more examples - What happened to Facebook after the Cambridge Analytica scandal? They got banned by congress right? They got shut down? The government stopped them from continuing to manipulate the public?

    It’s not just housing costs and affordable housing availability which are astronomical and non-existent respectively. Most of the industrialized world have socialized healthcare but the US does not.

    In the US you’ll pay for health insurance and still have hundreds and hundreds of dollars to pay out-of-pocket for even a simple checkup beyond a yearly physical, which is to say nothing of drug prices.

    Not to say things aren’t expensive elsewhere but the health insurance thing is the kicker in the US. You could be making 150k, be paying for insurance and still be beyond fucked by a major health-event.

    That said 150k is a big salary here too, like top 10% of the population. You basically only see this kind of salary inflation in tech jobs.
