Might be interpreting your comment wrong, but it is compatible with competitors. You don’t need to use Authenticator as your 2FA for a personal Microsoft account, and you can use Authenticator in place of any other TOTP app. It’s OP’s IT department that have chosen to disable the option to use other apps.

Sad, random mutations due to a limited gene pool have left the majority of the CPU population without their natural spiny deterrent. Soon, CPUs will be unable to survive in the wild as their lack of a defense mechanism makes them easy targets for predators and their populations will begin to dwindle.

My CPU is bald

I am having lots of fun with Palworld, but through GamePass because I can’t bring myself to buy it. It didn’t sit right with me that the PC GamePass version of the game is lacking features that the Steam version has. This limits me to only playing with my one Xbox friend, but I don’t feel like buying yet another early access game.

What’s up with the cheese wedge and the makeup? Is that also TikTok?

Man, I could really go for going home and playing some Minecraft right now.

Not if we’re going by golf scoring it’s not

There is an assumption that any changes or additions Threads may make to their implementation of ActivityPub beyond the official spec will break compatibility with other instances. It won’t though, that’s the point I was trying to make above.

Any additions they may want to make can absolutly be added on top of the existing official spec without breaking compatibility. Lemmy has downvotes but can still read comments and posts by Mastodon users. Mastodon users can post to Lemmy communities. You can see Pixelfed pictures on Kbin. Kbin posts can be read on Misskey. Misskey posts are visible on Mastodon.

All of these services have features that don’t exist elsewhere, built outside of the existing spec, but the core content is all interoperable. Anything Threads may want to add can be done without destroying spec compatibility. Sure, they could still make a change that intentionally breaks compatibility, but why would they? Theres nothing in it for them. No one who’s here is going to leave just because the Threads users are gone. The Threads users are already absent and we’re all still here.

I don’t think so. There are tons of ActivityPub implementations out there already that don’t even support all parts of the official spec (Lemmy can’t display attached images, for example). There are also implementations that have tacked on additional functionality beyond the official spec (again, Lemmy’s downvotes).

It’s a very flexible protocol that allows developers to pick and choose what features they want to implement in their services.

There are lots of people on there I would like to follow, but they wont be joining the fediverse and I don’t want to make a Threads account myself either.

Need more Bocchiposting

Well that’s disappointing but pretty expected. The Acer AH101-D8EY was my first VR headset. I can’t imagine why it didn’t catch on.

Did they leave?

That doesn’t really apply to Lemmy’s content though, since unlike Lemmy.world, Threads users won’t be able to create /c/ communities. If a Threads user wants to post to a community in a way that Lemmy recognizes them, they’ll have to post it to one under a Lemmy instance’s control, or Lemmy users won’t see a thing.

Why french fries? What’s the context…?

Name checks out

That’s interesting! They aren’t supposed to do that though, right? It goes against Google’s policy.

Wait, the Game Awards goes purely by the calendar year? A game that releases after the show at the very end of 2023 wouldn’t be eligible to appear in 2024’s show?
