No I’m pretty sure Katex support is built in

I think Logseq [1] does a very good job at basically everything you’ve mentioned

But I really hope this sets a precedent for all other countries, need money to finance something? Just tax the shit out of Facebook. Of course it’s a joke, we should properly tax them in the first place, or better yet force them not to exploit people data for profit

I said in a different thread but: It’s a good, and very scary, reading but I would argue that it does not directly translate here because Lemmy / Kbin and Reddit are not social media per se, they are content focused instead of being person focus. Here no one cares who you are, we are all here for content. The XMPP EEE succeeded because once defederated people were not able to talk to their friends, defederating Threads would cut us off from strangers and their content, it’s not a big deal.

We’ll see what happens, hopefully the Fediverse will not be another free social media attempt killed by greedy corporates.

It’s not clear, are you saying that since they would get most of my data (which is an already flawed argument since for example now I have my partner, best friends and family on Signal which are 95% of my conversations, as opposed to 5% of people whom I talk to on Whatsapp) I should give them all of it?

The second point doesn’t even require to have Threads, they could already do that, now what?

That’s what I’m saying, they would allow people to have the choice to leave. I guess they could introduce features that work only among users of Threads (i.e. Extend in the EEE paradigm) to convince people to stay / switch over, but still people would have the choice not to care.

Not if I’m talking to someone on Protonmail, Tutanota, etc.

Now would you prefer to have the possibility to talk privately at least to someone, even if just a handful of people, or be forced to never talk privately because you must use gmail to talk to anyone else?

I felt the same way but then I read this and changed my mind about it https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2023/07/what-to-know-about-threads/

Thinking about it I’m in an European country where Whatsapp is the default messenger app, if it had interoperability I could be on another FOSS app and be tracked by Meta just when I talk to people who are on Whatsapp and be free when talking to people not on Whatsapp, this could be great to make people switch “clients”, which is damn hard now because “everyone is on Whatsapp”. Interoperability is the shit and we should embrace it!

Why should someone not like trams? I love them because you also get to watch out of the windows compared to the metro
