Two letters. US.
They use SMS still.
Unless everyone they know has iPhones.
Then it’s iMessage.

You don’t want their help if they are from the US.
US heavily uses SMS still.
No privacy at all.
That means the government has full access to all your messages.
Whatsapp on the other hand has E2E for everything.
How is the privacy questionable?
It’s one of the more secure clients. It has E2E across everything: DMs, Group chats, phone calls, video calls and all.
In contrast, Telegram, which is often championed doesn’t even support E2E for group chats. Laughable.
Yes, Whatsapp does some on-device analytics for advertising purposes, but your message is always E2E encrypted before sending.
They had multiple 3P audits to prove it.
Some delusional people use Facebook messenger instead claiming both are FB anyway. NO. FB messenger doesn’t have any encryption. Your messages are stored in plain text.
Yes, Signal and Matrix etc. are better, but no one is using them and that goes against the very idea of communication.
That’s not the Amazon approach. Amazon tries to make money on the volume, not on the margins.
IPv4 is starting to actually cost. To everyone.
Yeah, the people in this thread including (and specifically) the OP are worse than reddit at its worst in terms of confident ignorance.
They reported these numbers in their quarterly reports. A company that trades on a public stock exchange is required to release quarterly reports that accurately represent their business.
Yes, companies like to play around with which metrics to report on to paint it better than it actually is, but the numbers can not be made up. If they say new subscriptions, it had to be new subscriptions.
Sure, this is the 10th post in my home page when I select ‘All’ and sort by ‘Active’.
Both ‘Blur NSFW’ and ‘Hide NSFW’ are toggled on.
Thanks for the update and improvements.
Fyi, Hide NSFW still doesn’t work. Would really appreciate if this was fixed.
Makes sense. I’m pretty sure many would otherwise give wrong, optimistic numbers for their vision and complain that their $3.5k device is not working properly and is blurry instead.
Meanwhile, Mastodon dies. Lemmy and kbin might survive because they fill a different niche; however, if instances start federating with Threads and making it possible to follow people on there, then the same exodus will happen.
I agree that it’s a direct threat to Mastodon. I disagree same will happen to Lemmy and Kbin. I don’t see Threats ever becoming a anonymity oriented platform. It’s tied to an Instagram account.
Even if they support it in the future, just like Twitter and Mastodon, the primary users will be real identities. That goes directly against the concept of Lemmy and Kbin.
Not everything fits the same paradigm. We can keep parroting the history just for the sake of it or we can adapt and see that things evolve over time.
Except reddit or lemmy doesn’t have a big concept of persistent friends or connections.
Why would you care where some random moves to? I don’t know anyone here and no one knows me. That’s the beauty of it. That’s why it’s different than other platforms and past occurrences.
Cumulative would imply monotonously non-decreasing.
There are dips in the curve, so can’t be cumulative.

I wouldn’t include Tensorflow in the list. Tensorflow’s dates are numbered too.
Google internally all but switched to JAX.
