In the USA, both Google Maps and Apple Maps say Lake America without any reference at all to the real name.

I think both companies vastly underestimate how abhorrent this is to their users and hiw much trust and goodwill they are losing from their customers/users over it.

@sl007 Danke für das Teilen des Trailers. 💔 So viele Lebensräume, so viele Arten sind bereits unwiederbringlich verloren. Die Zeit läuft uns davon!

Deswegen sind wir uns gar nicht so sicher, ob Loki zu dieser Konferenz gereist wäre. Vielleicht hätte sie auch mit ihrer unverwechselbaren, unerbittlichen Art gesagt: Genug geredet. Jetzt wird endlich gehandelt!

@ai6yr It's even crazier than that; they were inspired by the Sherlock Holmes story The Red-Headed League. The fictional address of Holmes at 221B is on the next block to the north!

That feeling when you can't wait to go to court. 🍿

@CCC
Diese Erzählung von der Lücke glauben inzwischen leider auch bei den Grünen einige wie der Änderungsantrag der Landesarbeitsgemeinschaft zum Wahlprogramm zeigt. 🙁

ActivityPub devs as well 🥰

@davidgerard Firefox? They've evidently spent a ton of cash on their new adverts

@fesshole
You guys flush?

shout out to the lemmy developers for not making us be stuck on the other site

shout out to mastodon devs for making us have a better life than on Twitter

shout out to the pixelfed devs for allowing a actual photography platform to exist

shout out to the peertube devs for helping us not be stuck on youtube until the end of time

ETA: Shout out to the server operators who make the stuff be done

• Lemmy, Piefed, PyLova, Mbin
• All the apps (and there are quite a few)
• All the alternatives UIs (Photon, Blorp, old, etc.)

Thank you everyone

Also, after the viral exposure of Pixelfed in January 2025, I got a dozen offers to sell, like 7 figures.

That would be life changing money. I couldn't even entertain this though, I had a feeling some were proxies of Meta, that is nothing to them, the ability to shutdown another competitor.

I never started this to sell out, I really believe in our mission, and how we can build safer and people centric alternatives.

Pixelfed is proudly funded by people, like you!

@stux I think there might be some that get jobs via LI, but I really do think it’s just a data-mining scheme for Microsoft at this point. They can use it as a social graph, albeit for business, but selling that data is probably very lucrative.
