@nitinkhanna think about it this way: it makes their life a lot easier if everyone's on the same version. They've been iterating features lately as well, so there are probably additions to the API.
Not saying I necessarily agree with the practice, but I can understand the logic behind it.
@nitinkhanna I haven't noticed, but then again I tend to keep upgrading my app on a regular basis.
I'm sure doing a lot of work for my new job even though I'm not done with my old job yet.
@matigo it's something to do with the work VPN. It broke Mastodon the other day…
@larand you hit the nail on the head.
I'm not in any way suggesting people shouldn't be able to own content. You just have no realistic way to prevent the unauthorized distribution of your content once it's been published.
Sure, you can put DRM and the like around content, and that may work for a time for content meant for fairly limited distribution. Ask the MPAA, RIAA, BSA, and other similar organizations how their efforts at achieving this at scale have worked.

@hybotics You can always "zoom" the browser window. But yeah, I get your meeting. Accessibility settings aren't the best.
@lukasros I've always had a love/hate relationship with Twitter. This is just one of the hate phases. :P
Clearly I sparked a discussion here… and something broke my ability to get to the website to participate… and I got busy.
Nice to know I can still occasionally back together a shell script or two, learn enough SQLite to be dangerous, and make stuff work.
