Nice demonstration of why mastodon's dominance is problematic

See the conversions here:
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4628
and
https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/federating-the-content-of-posts-note-articles-and-character-limits/4087

AFAICT, mastodon's decisions, which are arguably problematic (on which see: https://lemmy.ml/post/14973403) are literally trickling down to other platforms and infecting how they federate with each other as they dance around mastodon's quirks in different ways.

It seems like masto is ruining "the standard" with its gravity.

Maybe I'm just not awake enough but I'm not entirely following exactly what's going on. Can you give me a quick summary?

Oh so it's a compatibility triangle of C being compatible with A makes it incompatible with B? Sounds like a mess for sure

What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?

A recent YouGov survey asked Americans what they think they should be able to get to within a 15-minute walk of their house.

Of these choices, I can currently walk to all of them from my apartment, aside from a university (no biggie, I'm not currently studying, although there is a Tafe within walking distance), a hospital, and a sports arena.

How many can you get to with a 15 minute walk from your house?

What’s the point in being able to walk to a gas station anyway?

I imagine "gas station" also includes the convenience store that's often part of it

sequestered together in a small area so the noise can’t reach the houses

Actually its so you can go from one bar to another to chase the vibes or something. I don't drink much so I really don't know but the town I live in actually closes the road that all the bars are on to vehicle traffic at 10pm to protect the drunks stumbling between bars
