Oh wow, I didn't know that! Is there any official statement? Search didn't turn up anything. I guess I don't necessarily need to know exactly how it went down, but I wanna be nosy. :D

You shouldn't wait because it's going to happen. I moved all of my projects off of Github and Gitlab, and now self-hosting my own gitea instance. It's been great and never looked back!
We're all always dissatisfied with something
I’d also like to get notifications for sibling posts or replies to replies and so on. I just want to subscribe to that discussion.
Not sure if you use RSS feeds, but you can easily get one for any Lemmy discussion and subscribe to it. Here's an RSS feed for this discussion, for example.
Still trying to figure out how a comment about USA culture suddenly becomes a white vs black race issue... "culture" doesnt equal "race". Especially in the context of a discussion of an entire country.
I don't think this is an anti-React post, like the other commenters are implying.
This issue would occur when attempting to search any webpage with the web browser's builtin search feature before the content has a chance to load in. This happens if the page requires JavaScript to load, which is the case with React apps.
I dont want any parts of Threads. But if they're gonna federate, at least do it 100%. This half-ass, piecemeal approach where they release an itty bitty teeny weeny change every month is weird.
Not many things require a polyfill these days. My guess is a lot of older sites are affected.
This is an interesting perspective, and I very much see how people can have it. Totally agree that the internet just isn't like it used to be, arguably for the worst, depending on who you ask.
As much as I hate these big tech platforms, the issue isn't that they're doing what they're doing. After all, capitalistic societies (especially the US) don't just ignore it, they actually encourage this sort of "money above all else" mentally that a lot of these CEOs and shareholders have. So what platforms are doing shouldn't surprise anyone. Maybe some of it should be made illegal, but I'd argue making new laws still won't really address the problem.
The real problem is that we (everyday people) need to take more responsibility over the mental health of ourselves and our children and just stop using this brain-rotting software. We can complain about what they're doing to humanity all we want, but if we continue to use these platforms, we're just making it easier for them to do the bad things they do.
Genuine question: how do we actually "kill the big fish" though? Majority are going to continue to use big tech out of convenience and because they dont care much.
This is great news! Weird that I'm subscribed on all of the earlier Firefox GitHub discussions and didn't notice it. I wonder which version was the first to have Firefox support feature in it.
