πŸ‘½ Paul Webb THE only reason I'm such a heavy Mastodon user. Third-party apps are a must for any network.
πŸ™Œ Nat Voisey Shh, don't tell ! It's a challenge to imagine a world where Subreply is popular enough to develop an API and have third party apps, but you can still dream.

πŸ’ Lucian Marin In 2019 I suggested to Elon Musk to build a social network together. He answered me and said he wasn't interested, but my idea definitely changed everything. This is the butterfly effect of me creating a tiny social network. Five years later I saved the entire world from collapse.
πŸ¦‡ Arr Did he not get the idea from the community that all billionaries buy out a kind of media outlet to spread their point of view to the world? As for apps Musk likes to code, the everything-app seems to be it. For 20 years now, or when was his time with paypal?

πŸ’ Lucian Marin Do you have any idea how much the world changed in the last 4 years?
Zero Edge Sometimes I watch ads for Google products and it's hard to believe they run the largest advertising company in the world.. I guess selling advertisements is a lot easier than making good advertisements.
Zero Edge Disappointing how easily duped our politicians are: "oh we aren't price fixing its an algorithm that controls that", "oh were not tailoring search results its an algorithm that controls that". Not saying the full truth which is that the "algorithm" is modified until it produces the results they want. If they understood even a fraction of how the modern world works they would ask more pointed questions. I just keep thinking of all the embarrassing hearings with top tech CEOs where they are essentially lied to and they still don't realize it..

Zero Edge You want crypto to be a thing? Go after businesses like Buttcoin did in the early days before rebranding to a "store if value". Businesses would love to accept a currency that doesn't take 3% of every transaction and isn't susceptible to friendly fraud. Now all you have to do is make deals with pos cc terminal, make a cc, and gain real world adoption. Might be too hard for the moon boys and vaporware salesmen to do considering it involves real work.

Zero Edge I've never liked the whole "monkeys on a typewriter" thing because technically it isn't true. An infinite amount of monkeys given an infinite amount of time would never write Shakespeare because no matter what, a monkey cannot type in perfect randomness, meaning no matter how many or how long it would never type Shakespeare. If you made a device and trained a monkey to type perfectly random.. yeah, sure.
πŸ’ Lucian Marin Can ChatGPT write Shakespeare? In a world of AI generated text, Subreply might be the only places where people actually think.

Zero Edge Feeling good is the idol of the modern age. It is what causes people to tune out the truth in favor of lies because if I can believe a lie and feel good or believe the truth and feel bad why would I actively choose to feel bad. When you live in a world of lies (that makes you feel good) the truth becomes the enemy because it has the power to destroy your world. So you don't seek truth you seek reassurance. Reassurance that your world is legitimate. Reassurance that your world is truth. Reassurance so that you can "feel good". So the question is what is the truth and if you find it will you be open enough to accept it?

Zero Edge The fruit of the flesh is empty. The fruit of the Spirit is life. I want a world with more people that can be described as: Loving. Joyful. Peaceful. Patient. Kind. Good. Faithful. Gentle. In Self Control. (Galatians 5:22-23)
