Or quit Twitter because the algorithm pushes celebrities and organizations too much, rather than actual humans?

Here you go, a pigeon and cat interacting through a window https://mastodon.art/@welshpixie/108961962539795706 :)


Thanks!

As for using Mastodon, I would highly recommend getting an app like Tusky to have a proper 'all in one' experience.


In addition to what the sibling comment said, Beeper is a great 'all in one' bridges type of software. The client is proprietary, but still interoperable with the larger Matrix network (and they contribute to upstream too).


> Btw the parents sound like helicopter parents going by your first sentence alone, I wouldn't mind them if they think their kid has to consider careers at 14.

My middle school required career shadowing at the end of 8th grade.

I agree with the first paragraph.


> One problematic issue I can see the Pinephone have in regards to this is that there's no unified push service that works for all apps

I won't reveal exactly where this is happening because the software is still in a proof-of-concept stage, but KDE folks are working on a 'unified push service' right now.


> because just about no browser today does anything nicer than wall of XML

The browser doesn't, but you can use an XSLT stylesheet like this to make it look a little bit nicer: https://karmanyaah.malhotra.cc/feed.xml

An XSLT stylesheet allows formatting XML content as HTML/CSS. Of course, I haven't solved linking people to feed readers (maybe just feedly), but it could be done with this.

This is great!

I could use XLST to tell people what my feed is, how to use it, etc, all without interrupting those who already knew.

Sorry for the ignorance, but what is the point of getting this accurate in the datacenter (outside of scientific research and measurements I'd imagine)?

Wouldn't it be easier to just make distributed servers deal with large 'packets' or large individual tasks on their own?


There's an entire class of problems where you need to synchronize application state between data centers. For that, if two conflicting requests show up in different data centers at the ~same time, different servers need to agree on which one came first, and for that they need to be on as close to the same time as possible. Even being off by milliseconds doesn't cut it when request volume is high.
