Jokes on you, I love the clumps of chocolate in milk with cocoa powder.

… What? Okay I get all of them except the SNQ one.
So is it an emulator? Or does “translation layer” mean something else?
it wouldn’t make sense for the server to hold your private key, since that would mean the owner of your instance could make posts as you.
I mean, this is quite normal and common for all traditional social media (or any site really) you sign up for. It’s what most ActivityPub instances do too, though there’s nothing in ActivityPub that requires the server to hold the private key. It could in principle be held by the client but I don’t believe there is any implementation that does that currently.
But what if the server that holds the cryptographic keys is suddenly gone? Then what?
Or does Bluesky use client-held keys? I just think client-held private keys is probably too complicated for most people to realistically and safely use.
Right, of course. I don’t really see any way any protocol can get around that though. If the original server is suddenly just gone, there is no way to tell it to move your account elsewhere. Hopefully such a situation should happen very rarely though.
ActivityPub actually has a similar mechanism of a “Move” activity. There are just very few implementations that support that kind of thing.
That’s… exactly what I’m saying. Did you misunderstand my comment perhaps? Normies are not “choosing” not to learn, they just literally don’t have the tech literacy skills to easily participate in the fediverse. The fediverse should improve its UX to allow more people to participate.
I think I’m probably closer to the normies than the stereotypical tech-literate Mastodon person.
Just from the fact that you are here, it is statistically likely that you are much closer to the tech literates than the normies. Can you search for a specific email in your email inbox? You’re already way ahead of many people. You are severely overestimating the technical literacy of normal people.
Seriously yea. Same reason Linux user experience is generally bad. Unfortunately engineers usually make for poor designers.
I’m pretty dumb and uneducated
Statistically speaking, the mere fact that you are here indicates that you are among the top percentages of tech literal people. This isn’t necessarily about intelligence or general education, but about tech literacy.
Well, only techno-pessimistic about mainstream technologies that are used by most people, which is warranted I guess. Most people don’t use the fediverse after all.
The use of open, decentralized platforms such as the fediverse is one small step in the right direction at least.
Same, that part was really annoying
CrossCode, great characters and great story. Really good game.
To shreds, you say?
Huh that makes a lot more sense actually. Not sure why I never realized that.
I know you’re being sarcastic but if we actually look on the bright side, then tools like this could make indie games easier to produce. More and better indie games could in theory bring more competition to companies like EA and that could actually pressure them to make games cheaper.
