“So like Chris [Cox, Meta’s chief product officer] and I have been talking about, ‘all right, well, can we build 50 new apps? Like, yeah, probably,” Zuckerberg is quoted to have said in the article. “But we probably should start by doing a few before we just, like, ramp up trying to do 50 all at once.”
Motherfucker intends to flood the app market with slop-at-scale. The fuck kinda 50 apps would you even come up with?
- App that shows you AI slop that looks like reddit
- App that shows you AI slop that looks like amazon
- App that shows you AI slop that looks like google
- App that shows you AI slop that looks like twitter
- App that shows you AI slop that looks like yahoo …
TIHI
lol only 20 years too late.
Let them fight. It’ll be entertaining. If we’re incredibly lucky (we won’t be incredibly lucky) they’ll find a way to bankrupt each other.
Has meta ever invented anything? I always thought it was ironic he called out apple for iPhone and then doing nothing, but all they’ve successfully created was Facebook, they bought everything else and illegally sold our data to get rich
Dude lucked out on a friendster lookalike and has never come up with a successful original idea since. Also, is he putting on a fake tan in that tumbnail?
I would bet money on the fake tan
Maybe he’s laid off the suncream since the last time the papparazi got him:
Stop shooting with a camera
Mark Zuckerberg is one of the worst humans alive. Right below Trump, Netanyahu, and Elon. They all gotta go.
Did Putin die? Otherwise it’s difficult to understand why he’s not in that list.
Great list! I’d add Bezos as well for my top 5.
Can we make it a top 10? I propose Martin Shkrelly, Sam Altman and Peter Thiel for 6,7 and 8th spots
Don’t forget Mark Andreesen, Vance, and every single successor to the Presidency under Trump.
Lemme guess, there won’t be any “sort by” and instead the AI will give us post that the clank think we want?
Their VR Chat clone didn’t quite pan out. Their Twitter clone didn’t quite pan out. Onto the Reddit clone.
Technically it was a mastodon clone
i’m curious: what makes it a mastodon clone over a twitter clone?
Threads’ plan is to implement the ActivityPub protocol, the one the fediverse is based on.
In theory threads could then be federated with other ActivityPub servers (Mastodon and Lemmy for example).
In practice, many instance admins saw it as meta’s way to invade that space with their own proprietary bullshit on top of it so they can progressively take control of it. So many decided to block threads as soon as it would be able to federate with their instance.
They could federate with servers if only they had servers that wanted to federate with them.
Sure. They targeted Fediverse apps like Mastodon and Bluesky.
“Perhaps to spice things up a bit, this time around, Meta is also including a dedicated AI assistant in the app.”
Yo dawg! I love a little spice on my reddit clone jus like I like a little shimma shimma shine on my fake vomit.
…and communities you care about
from meta? not a snowball’s chance in zuckerberg hell.
Zuck is taking tanning tips from trump. In no time his eyes will look like bleached assholes too
Fuckerberg is just an unoriginal, soulless husk, ain’t he?
It would be fantastic if the app could join the Fediverse community, similar to Lemmy than Reddit
It would be horrible and kill this place. Meta does not do any sensible moderation on its platforms. There are nazis on there. All those MAGA propagandists. Scammers. Trolls. Meta is doing nothing against that.
A “meta lemmy instance” integrating Facebook groups would be too big for other instances to block. Which would bring all those users you really don’t want to be here into our forum with no moderation. It would also send all your posts and user data from here to Meta.
Meta actually did the same with mastodon, a lot instances blocked them before federation was turned on. People who use Lemmy are not likely to be up for a tech bro to be federating with them.
That said I’m sure you’ll be able to find and join an instance that would do it if you want it.
I refuse to believe anyone actually uses the word ‘fantastic’ unironically.
