@ajsadauskas @technology A multimedia platform. Will he eventually look towards ActivityPub as well?
No, no you misunderstand...
The holy grail for these big corps is to replicate wechat. It's the everything app for over a billion people. Can you imagine the level of control you could exert over a population with a tool like that? It's everyone's wet dream to have something like that for Europe and the US.
And I mean everyone, not just Twitter. Facebook wants to do it, Google wants to do it. People who have never seen it in action don't really get it, there is no analog to wechat in the west. It's a chat program? With PayPal in it? No. You can pay parking tickets in wechat. This is what they're trying to turn Twitter into.
I'm gonna start calling it "Xhoo!"
I still like 𝕏eet (pronounced "sheet")
I like it
Unrelated but I'm very impressed with how well this posted to Lemmy from Mastodon. Exceptional
I wonder if competition law has anything to say about companies that do everything
You can do everything, unless one of those is a monopoly that you leverage for other products
