1·9 days agoSocial media are new media technologies that facilitate the creation, sharing and aggregation of content (such as ideas, interests, and other forms of expression) amongst virtual communities and networks.[1][2]
Wikipedia.
The earliest forms of social media appeared almost as soon as technology could support them. E-mail and chat programs debuted in the early 1970s, but persistent communities did not surface until the creation of the discussion group network USENET in 1979.
Encyclopedia Britannica.
websites and computer programs that allow people to communicate and share information, opinions, pictures, videos, etc. on the internet, especially social networking websites

11·11 days agoHumans in different areas are used to and can survive different temperatures. There’s this buddhist guy who goes out in the snow naked and meditates to produce body heat.
But all humans are made of water, and can relate its chemical processes to their comfort and survival.

53·11 days agoThat’s because you’re using the silly farenheit scale, which was designed for brine. You should use celcius, which is designed for humans.

241·11 days agoI actually think that’s the best case because it would kill enterprise adoption of AI overnight. All the corps with in-house AI keep using and pushing it, but every small to medium business that isn’t running AI locally will throw it out like yesterday’s trash. OpenAI’s stock price will soar and then plummet.

11·12 days agoThe Matrix protocol sends the channel name and icon from server to user client. It’s one extra field to add the ordinality. Two extra fields to add the category and ordinality. Adding your idea onto My idea so users can also reorder channels after the space moderator orders them would be ideal, but please don’t mistake My suggestion for the idea you came up with.

21·12 days agoYour group arrangement should either be under user account preferences, or local client settings
I disagree. On Discord, channels are sorted and grouped by the server admins. This is good UX design because it gives every user on a server the same experience of the channels, and doesn’t require users to all replicate a bunch of the same work.
What you’re proposing as a solution is that every single user in a Matrix space is responsible for sorting and grouping all of the channels in the space that they’ve joined. That’s a ridiculous proposal because 99% of users aren’t going to go to that ridiculous effort, they’re going to be happy with the default settings. I think your idea is better than Matrix’s current setup, but it’s far worse than Discord from a usability perspective.

21·12 days agoHTML and CSS are also protocols. But I think a better analogy is RSS. RSS carries information about the order of posts, which clients can use however they want. I think that’s the right way to do this feature.

35·13 days agoIf it’s not supported by the protocol, how is an admin’s sorting of channels supposed to be pushed to the users in the server? It won’t work, it can’t be a client option. If it has to be a client option and it can’t, then it’s impossible.

81·13 days agoI don’t like Matrix because you can’t sort and categorise channels in a server. The most recently messaged in channel is always at the top. That’s not the UX I want, I want to be able to put things in places with intentionality.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your thoughts on apolitical people?English
1·14 days agoI have not lived with ASPD. They have. Thus, they have access to data I will never have. For that reason, I extend a certain amount of trust in their conclusions. I do the same with many other minority stati I will never have.
Additionally, consider all of the political systems in the world that are smaller than states and capital. Like families, recreational clubs, communes. People with ASPD have difficulty participating in those, too.
