I don’t think the US flights ground wars. We’re more about drones now. I’m thinking this is cheap labor for the farms once we kick out the foreigners.

That’s a horrible take and you should feel bad.

But I’m a stranger on the Internet and probably a moron so it’s ok to not take me seriously or respond to me.

“I’m gonna post this on the Internet” didn’t really scream “I’m well adjusted and have delt with this”

I can’t imagine how you’re not affected by this.

Is this not relevant, since this person is a linchpin in creating federated alternatives to those social media sites? And if he fails he drags them all down.

That is fantastic. Thank you!

What removed that? Your client or your instance or…?

Be the see that you wish to world in the change

And here I am, 45 years old and never accidentally made this motion. How unlikely of me.

Phone users want to consume short form video that way.

Yes! They’re threatening to take away my clit mouse

I still can’t log into the darn android app. Takes me to the pixelfed.social login, then does nothing.

But one day I’ll love it, I’m sure.

Hey, that’s not bad. Thanks!

Ahhh, I see the problem.

What you said sounded like “membership is growing exponentially”, which is false.

What you intended was “The rate of membership growth is growing exponentially”. Which is true.

These are two very different things. If you truly meant that second one in your comment, then all I can say is you chose some very strange wording for it. And I’m not the only one that misunderstood.

I also don’t get it and would love some guidance

The claim is dubious.

Anecdotally, I stopped drinking mio with red 40 and switched to something dye free, and I’m much better regulated.

But anecdotes aren’t data. YMMV.

How quickly would wiki tank if the bad faith actors outnumbered the good?

And have you SEEN Facebook?

No. They’re two different tools. the article misses the point

If you’re happy to be corrected, then let me please help.

Exponential growth is dependent on the original size, and is usually a multiple of that size. 10 going to 20 then going to 40 then going to 80 is exponential growth.

10 going to 20 then to 30 then to 40 is linear growth. The increments are not related to it’s original size.

Going from 290k to 320k is barely a 10% increase. The way the graph is clipped LOOKS like an exponential line, but that’s because it’s clipped. If we showed the full data, 0 to 320k, it would not at all look exponential.

And even if we drop the mathematical meaning and go with the colloquial meaning, when people say exponential they usually mean doubling. So 290k to 580k.

People are calling you out because you exaggerated too hard. You called 10% growth exponential. That’s just wrong on the face of it.

Now I will wait and see if you lied to me about being happy to be proven wrong.

Eh… It’s important to not spread misinformation and correct it when you see it.

It’s also important to just be ok with being wrong and get on with your life. No emotion needed.
