  > whatever that Ruby-based alternative was, that Zuck famously invested in, but to which I have zero memory of the name right now I think you're referring to Diaspora. https://diasporafoundation.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaspora_(social_network). - Source: Hacker News / almost 1 year ago

• Imgur Is About to Wipe a Ton of Porn From the Internet

  Maybe if reddit manages to kill itself, one of the decentralized projects like diaspora will expand. Source: about 1 year ago

• Twitter will remove accounts created solely to promote other social platforms

  I remember making similar comments about Diaspora vs Facebook a decade ago, but people are... lazy. Yeah, let's go with lazy. Source: over 1 year ago

• Stop

  To be fair, its not Mastodon, its the #Fediverse. Mastodon is arguably the least rich platfrom on the 'verse.

  You don't need anything super powerful honestly. I made the transition from Windows to Mac about halfway through my degree and thought it was way better because it's lightweight/battery life/lasted longer than my HP but you'll be fine either way.

• What kind of Mac for my wife?

  You could look at macofalltrades.com or such for an older 13" MB Air. See if you can keep it to 2014 (supports Big Sur) or 2015 (supports Monterey). That could get her by for a year or two. Source: over 1 year ago
