Just got an email from #apple about podcasts with links to their #xitter, #TikTok and #facebook accounts. Seems so weak.

Why don't these other big tech players try to take down their competitors by promoting #ActivityPub? It would cost them nothing. Run a server etc. Promote it in their other products. Fund development just a little. They don't need to win, just weaken the other guys.

I was told this is how capitalism works :P

Their side quest to speed run the history of Titter continues : P

As @LaurensHof points out, once again they're claiming to "distribute power", while building infrastructure in ways that totally centralises power in their hands. It's getting hard to assume this is a good faith mistake, rather than a cynical reputation laundering strategy.

We have this expression in Tennessee, maybe you have it on the Fediverse: "Fool me once, shame on you,
Fool me twice, you, you can't get fooled again."
