  • I work in IT and have since 2011… most people are buying $800+ phones for no reason

    I do actually agree, but it’s funny you say this in a post where you’re glazing the Galaxy S4.

    Adjusted for inflation that thing would cost $876 today.

    But yeah, people spend way more than they need to on phones. Midrange or used is perfectly fine.




  • I’d encourage people to read the article, because it’s pretty no-nonsense and has some other interesting details and background information. It’s not very long, either!

    But here’s the important part that the headline speaks of:

    Decentralized social network organization Mastodon said Monday that it is planning to create a new non-profit organization in Europe and hand over ownership of entities responsible for key Mastodon ecosystem and platform components. This means one person won’t have control over the entire project. The organization is trying to differentiate itself from social networks controlled by CEOs like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.

    While exact details are yet to be finalized, this means that Mastodon’s current CEO and creator, Eugen Rochko, will hand over management bits of the organization to the new entity and focus on the product strategy.
