  • 1999, XMPP is born. πŸ‘Ά
  • 2005, Google launches "Talk", touted as a "great victory for XMPP", with "large-scale XMPP services".
  • 2012, Google encourages "Talk" users to switch to "Hangouts".
  • 2013, Google drops open XMPP interoperability with other servers.
  • 2015, Google begins shutting down "Talk" clients.
  • 2017, previous phase is now complete, XMPP is virtually unheard of.
  • 2022, Google shuts down all XMPP integration. XMPP is, for all intents an purposes, dead. πŸͺ¦

  • 2016, Mastodon is born. πŸ‘Ά
  • 2023, Meta launches "Thread", touted as a great victory for Mastodon. ← You are here.
  • 2030, Meta encourages "Thread" users to switch to "Fabric".
  • 2031, Meta drops open ActivityPub interoperability with other servers.
  • 2033, Meta begins shutting down "Thread" clients.
  • 2035, previous phase is now complete, Mastoson is virtually unheard of.
  • 2040, Meta shuts down all Mastodon integration. Mastodon is, for all intents an purposes, dead. πŸͺ¦

N.B.: The delays in the timeline were copied over verbatim. Historical conditions have to be taken into account, as the popular adoption of internet began in the late 2000s. So it is likely for the "extinguish" phase of Mastodon to happen much faster. I give it 5 years tops. And by 2030, we will all remember it as we now remember XMPP.

This is just pointless drama. It's an emotional shitshow with way too much ego from all participants. The reaction from the Dev is actually bad, but the OG CVE is equally bad.

On one hand, I don't expect an app to let me inject code even as an admin. That's just very bad form, and asking for trouble.

On the other hand, arguably, if an attacker has admin access, you're toast. So that's also hardly a CVE.

Now, all the involved people have terrible written expression, poor grammar, and are even omitting entire chunks of sentences.

And then there's the content... Nah, this is just noise. Absolute junk. Sorry, but IMHO this has nothing to do in this community.

Please stop posting paywalled articles. Neither 1ft.io/12ft.io nor archive.ph could get the full text out of that one...

Could you post the full article here?

Still better than JakΓΈff. Heard he is a total wanker...

Because in spite of the question ("private host" as opposed to "privacy friendly host"), people have commented in the context of privacy (probably because of the community we're on); and in that context, the mere mention of github or gitlab is met with downvotes.

IMHO using github or gitlab for that isn't much of a concern privacy wise (at least not more than browsing a website from the companies behind those services), but it surely is when it comes to data integrity (which is a totally separate concern, but people often confuse it with privacy, like they also do with security). I would not trust either service with that.
