Oh man… this takes me back.
My grandpa used to always say to us kids, “I’m going to go upstairs to have sex with your grandmother”.

Can someone please explain telemetry to me in this context? Is telemetry just a broad umbrella term for usage data or does it indicate a specific type of data or category of data?
Of course there are degrees of usefulness and different types of organizing, but generally, your wrong here in your first point. Some merit in your second claim, but overall, it’s something they likely feared to a degree as a point of connection and amplification of information.
He needs daddy’s approval and the other billionaires are surrogate daddy. That would be the social agenda influence you’re referencing. Look at how desperate and odd he was on stage with dave chapelle, that was a core view into his base self, he needs to be praised. He’s also a eugenics/natalism cult member and sees the wealthy as his equal, superior “race” of people - so he would 100% sacrifice a lot for even their passing approval.
Wallow looks interesting, how is it on battery use though?

No it isn’t.
No… No it’s not… But you can imagine what’d be like if it was, right?
I’m sure they are bad, because general corporation and enshittification cycle, but when someone consistently mentions, “a single tweet” or something like that that they represent as purely innocuous (but without any explanation or link to source), gets my suspicious radar WAY up…
On purpose.
Only clearer by the day that this was all an exercise to intentionally kill Twitter to the benefit of billionaires, fascists and other extremists.
Twitter existed as a relatively free and open public space to communicate, organize and assemble to take actions for and against things at scale before musk (e.g. The Arab Spring, a terrifying moment for the Saudis especially - the second largest shareholder behind musk).
When people collectively laughed at elon and his cringe, inbred, emerald boy antics or his humiliating divorce and other routine failures, Twitter was the bullhorn.
Now elon and his desperate far right Toadies will work to try to rewrite reality so they can eventually have this conversation:
"Twitter? What’s a Twitter? Wait, are you talking about blork? A bird? No, blork’s logo is a dinosaur with chainsaw arms… and everyone wants to be his best friend… and it’s against the law to divorce him… and he’s cool… and…"
What an everlasting tool history will remember you as, elon. If they remember you at all, it will be to laugh at you - you’ll never outrun that.

Not pretty, but Kenesis (sp?) is the winner. Tried many available options through work, stuck with their design for years now.
It actually does get solved with other systems. I can tell you that because I worked within Google platform for over a decade in the same industry, add with differs companies/environments and probably invested a total of 1-2 hours collectively in thought and setup deliberately for that system. It worked, and it improved over time.
Especially when outlook does things like give a notification that you’ve replied to a thread on a given date, but clicking that text doesn’t jump to that mentioned reply AND the reply in question is not shown in line with the message you responded to.
I’m the last person to champion Google, but in comparison, Gmail handles conversational email threads intuitively and without deliberate setup or skill required. It follows the logical human expectation for the course of a natural conversation between parties. It also collapses less recent messages and surfaces more recent, relevant ones on longer term threads. But everything is logical and accessible.
I have a list a mile long of little features that have blocked me day to day in outlook mail and calendar that break productivity flow compared to gmail. They require deliberate setup and a learning curve to get something that feels close to usable and even then, glaring omissions in the product.
If your work isn’t very complex and you don’t communicate often (i.e. You’re coding all day or reading/responding jira tickets), I can see you having that take. If you’re forced to interact with these systems constantly though, it is objective trash. It’s stale and afraid to change due to enterprise malaise and already approved workflows with said broken system.
I fucking hate it every day.
Yes, and I know it’s counter to the core motivations of this movement, but probably need a centralized repository for donation that can be a universal door for funds that can then be distributed to vulnerable, but active, instances. Needs to be run by a collective of reps from instances meeting a minimum threshold of support for the community. Also needs to be nimble enough to revoke funding is an instance takes a hard evil turn.
Or maybe just an app/site that recommends a distribution of a set monthly amount (e.g. 30 bucks) to the instances you use the most as a user?
I can’t imagine there is a good business, that communicates effectively, that is room in Microsoft Outlook.
I never appreciated Google’s productivity software until I was forced to use Microsoft’s at a large company. People just openly accept this broken system and the fact that they’ll miss important communications and spend far too much time accounting for the SW’s shortcomings.
FUCK Microsoft Outlook. The executives making decisions for the team’s designing and maintaining that product are committing crimes against humanity.
How is a rant about billionaires and greed ever a thing to shy away from? The class war and it’s associated wealth inequality/endless growth mentality are essential drivers to the climate change problem that’s keeping you up at night. You can’t disconnect the two if you actually want the problem addressed.
You know… Strikes and gutters
Look around and realize how you got here to Lemmy/kbin/beehaw/etc - you were betrayed by a few VC-captured executives that made profit-blinded, consumer-hostile decisions about an important product you used frequently. They ruined it.
Anyone here defending digital media or saying it’s not that bad or they should have done a digital lending system, you’re not remembering the recent past.
The only acceptable ground to give here is NONE. Physical media needs to start mandatory, or your purchases are never owned and you’re always at risk and at the whims of someone like Spez.
Good. Now, extending this logic, if I have ZERO WATCH HISTORY of shorts videos on my account, then… STOP CLOGGING MY SUBSCRIPTION FEED WITH SHORTS!!!
