@cwebber thx. I don't have any problem with cs, but it didn't come to my mind that one would try to model the depth of a human relationship with graphs.
*mumbles* tooting about favourite flowers, so I must already be in 7 layers of friendship
@nev@cwebber Yeah, that's why I refer to some crypto-techbro software like Signal as “maleware”: it uses perfectly fine cryptography to hide the contents of your communications, but you can only have one identity, and it's your phone number, so you can't use it with anyone you wouldn't trust with your number :( Also, anyone who has your number is automatically informed you use Signal.
(I could also complain about it not doing anything about metadata, but that entirely misses the point)
Okay, lots of posts about "could you elaborate" so let me attempt.
What would we like? - Strong resilience to abuse, spam, dogpiling - Networks which focus on *deeper* relationships with your community rather than *popularity*... in depth vs breadth, depth matters more (this ain't a high school popularity contest) - support for anonymnity and multiple identities without increased support for abuse, spam, dogpiling
it frustrates me that I believe that the way we're handling identity and social relationships on the current iteration of the fediverse is Very Wrong, but it's just a lot of talk from me until I can demo with real code I guess
I hope we don't get locked into dangerous antipatterns before it's too late to shift the direction of the network
@rugk „ Im OSM-Sinne gilt als bauliche Trennung, wenn man nicht überall zwischen dem Radweg und der Fahrbahn wechseln kann (z.B. Grünstreifen oder Leitplanke). Im amtlichen Sinne gilt bereits ein Bordstein als bauliche Trennung. Ob ein Bordstein auch im OSM-Sinne als bauliche Trennung gilt, ist umstritten.“
Aber da steht auch, dass die Mehrheit gegen ne separate Linie ist. Sorry, hatte ich überlesen.
@rixx@maha auch zu Signal las ich mal, dass die Play Services (falls vorhanden) immer im App Context mitlaufen, um zB Maps anzuzeigen. Das ist aber ein generisches Android Problem solange man irgendwelche Play APIs verwendet.
