Tumblr is losing $30M each year, CEO says
  • I miss Tumblr. Yes, Tumblr still exists, but the Tumblr I miss does not. This stuff makes me wonder if we'll see an ActivityPub Tumblr-clone at some point, like Lemmy/Kbin to Reddit, Mastodon to Twitter and PeerTube to YouTube.

  • What petty hill will you die on?
  • I think "pile of goo that becomes a bigger pile of goo" does seem a lot more plausible than a literal ice cream cone. I'd take more issue with the self-destructing pokeball pokemon, Voltorb. What kind of evolutionary mechanism brought that on?

  • The Verge reacting to Reddit's spokesperson trying to discredit them
  • Sure, but some places do have more influence on the public discourse than others. Lemmy will remain relatively uninfluential until it becomes more user-friendly, and/or more well-known. So any left wing stuff here is going to have less of an effect than it did on Reddit or other such places, for now.

  • EU votes for smartphones having user-replaceable batteries by 2027
  • My last two phones both got slow as their batteries got bad, and were basically like new after replacing them. My current phone doesn't allow swapping the batteries.

    For someone thrifty, being able to replace the battery can extend a phone's life 2x or more. Even if you don't want to keep using it, you could still resell it or give it to someone who doesn't need the newest phones. Non-swappable batteries are a form of planned obsolescence, in addition to just being more compact and probably a little cheaper.
