@prologic I didn’t heard about that. I just searched around, and people donated $4M worth of crypto to Trump, it seems. That could be more, or less.
That, though, doesn’t makes us complicated. It’s the whole lot of *everything else* that does. 😬

@stigatle that's so cool! Wish family would let me buy a bike; they fear too much for my life to allow. LOL.
That bike is $8,000 here. Cheap, but not too cheap! The gear you are wearing (boots, gloves, pants and jackets, and helmets) aren't cheap here either! Fun hobby, nevertheless. :-) Enjoy, and ride with care!

@prologic that works fine when interacting with people you know--and they know you--well. On The Tubes it's easy to be misunderstood, or getting a tone other than the intended applied to your message. It easy devolves into a "plonkable" stage. 😅

@movq I do that constantly, on the Fediverse. I often type long replies, disagreeing, or agreeing with someone, read it over and over, just to realise there isn’t anything to gain by it, and scrape it.

Small extract:
> "Conceptually, Advanced Data Protection is simple: All CloudKit Service keys that were generated on device and later uploaded to the available-after-authentication iCloud Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) in Apple data centers are deleted from those HSMs and instead kept entirely within the account’s iCloud Keychain protection domain. They are handled like the existing end-to-end encrypted service keys, which means Apple can no longer read or access these keys."

@prologic Messages are e2e encrypted. SMS/MMS are not, but that’s not Apple’s fault. You can configure it, so it doesn’t fall back to SMS/MMS if that’s what you want.
Apple isn’t implementing RCS because of Google (which, arguably, doesn’t even support it). 😂

@lyse not what you want. Instead of an infinite scrolling, it will render until a point, then give you a link to load the next batch. Rinse and repeat.

I tried Signal, and I didn't like it. I don't like the interface, I don't like one has to rely on a relatively small company infrastructure. It has bugs, and issues: sometimes messages will deliver, sometimes they will not.
Nothing has been more stable for me (as an Apple user, that is) than Messages. It comes with the OS, it is beautiful, and it just works.

@movq I think the fact we can see posts from it in here (twtxt.net) is odd. It means someone (withing this Yarn pod?) follows it, no?
I asked @prologic and got no answer, but I wonder if there is admin-only tool built-in on Yarn, that allows the admin to search which user(s) follow a certain feed (for moderation purposes, or otherwise).

@prologic you are right, there is no much out there. What little did I find, I am sure you came across it too. I say, wing it like an American would: you don't need no knowledge, load it up; hook that trailer up, and put all you need in it. If it moves it, and it doesn't break, then you are within specs. 😂
