  • The first one already happens, no? Before the last few updates, if you opened a link to a community that “via” another instance, you were kinda screwed. You could see it as a “guest”, but not interact to it. In the recent updates, if you try to interact with it, it will open a popup to ask if you wanna open it in one of the instances you have an account.

    Dunno if I misunderstood your point, tho.

    The second one is kinda hard, because images already put a lot of pressure on instances storage-wise. Videos would be even more, and not only much more storage needed, but also throughput. I don’t really see it happening any time soon, not really because of the apps, but because of the platform itself and its federated nature.






  • I saw “Blackberry” yesterday and it was a really good experience putting you in the context of those times.

    There is one scene where they type a message and wait for it to show up on another device. After a few seconds, it is there and every engineer in the room celebrates.

    Then, management/sales guy comes in and they tell about what they’ve just done. He goes yeah, nice, but we do it already, it’s called SMS.

    The engineers then say that he is not getting the point. It was a message sent through the network using data, 0 dollars and all and salesman’s eye get brighter.

    So yes, I think the sensation was alike.
