I thought a lot of people did leave Twitter. I did a few months ago.

Wiremin is closed source. Why would anyone use that over mastodon?

How exactly would a phone camera get a clear image of your retina? I very much doubt anything like this is possible but maybe I’m missing something

pooperNickel ,

I mean how would this work though, even assuming that technology hurdle is cleared (definitely doubting it, a slightly dark room can totally hose a cell phone photo)?

The Twitter app has to request camera use and then ask the user to do that. What possible benefit would there be for the user?

pooperNickel ,

Yeah, maybe. Doesn’t sound attractive to me though, there are already several ways to authenticate which work fine.

And if they protested people commuting into a city, a huge source of global emissions, they’d be criticized for that too. People always manage to label protests as the wrong time/place. What they really mean is “protest is fine as long as no one, especially me, is asked to actually pay attention to it.”

pooperNickel ,

Yeah why don’t they know their place, where no one will notice them???

pooperNickel ,

So you’re advocating for people being so selfish that the death of a livable environment is secondary to being fully comfortable today?

pooperNickel ,

Oil companies love that you think any noticeable protest is crazy.

“I think this is so silly” isn’t alienating? Ok.
