I don’t think the fediverse has this, but I’m a bit confused why so many of these comments are puzzled at why you would want it. We have fediverse twitter, fediverse insta, fediverse reddit, fediverse discord, etc – why not fediverse facebook/myspace/carrd? Where users could just have small personal (or corporate) pages about themselves that aren’t as blog/news focused on the main(user) page.

I don’t even think it would be a huge stretch to implement: a big focus on user page customization with a small microblog interface taking up a portion of the screen would do it. (Disclaimer: not saying easy to create, just not that far out of reach vs everything else the fediverse has).

How does the change do nothing to combat those interactions when they fall under the $1 sub requirement? The idea is that allegedly bots won’t pay, so they won’t be able to do those actions anymore.

Corrected archive link - OP’s is missing a character so it’s not working

1.0 release means going from “we hope this works, but if not, be patient because we’re still working on it and let us know so we can try to fix it” to “we’re pretty confident this works as intended well enough to make it an official feature with announcements and PR.”

This goes for all software.

It’s weird to call it misleading. Yes, it might have worked, but it was a testing relationship, not an official one.

It’s specific to Xi Jinping. Chinese memelords started it in ~2013, and the country’s censors were so offended by it that the Streisand Effect kicked in.

Stuart Fergus, the husband of James Bulger’s mother, said that after he reached out to one creator asking them to take down their video, he received a reply saying: “We do not intend to offend anyone. We only do these videos to make sure incidents will never happen again to anyone. Please continue to support and share my page to spread ­awareness.”

He really tried to take down his wife’s dead kid’s deepfake and got the creator responding “no offense, so like share and subscribe lel”

Using the likeness of another person without that person’s express permission should be a jailable offense.
