there is nothing socialist about the CCP. "Communism with Chinese Characteristics" is just capitalism.
what was stopping them from doing this previously? Isn't this just government virtue signaling?

Citroën Is Coming Back with a giant USB?
Did anybody else see this and think the logo on the door was a giant USB port for charging this electric car sold in the USA (but only DC) and in the EU where you might not even need a license if your county classifies it as a "quadracycle" instead.

Support Girl Scouts of SE Michigan by order your cookies early
We live in Northern Macomb County, if you want to avoid large shipping costs you can choose GIRL DELIVERY if you live in the area; alternatively you can also choose to donate a cookie purchase which gives our Girl Scouts the funds, and gives another box of cookies for the council's annual donation to the Airmen at Selfridge Air National Guard base.
I don't have that much content here anyway, I'll just need to rejoin the like 40 magazines, just need to decide which of the 5 different kbin instancanes I joined today I'd rather be on.
certainly not just a Mastodon thing, as Friendica , and I'm pretty sure GNU Social, had it before Mastodon did.
Thanks for the info though
Migrating Kbin account to new instance
I recently created an account on a new kbin instance. Is there an easy way to migrate my account to that new instance? I feel like this should be easy to find. As such I suspect that such doesn't exist yet, or I'm an idiot. Both are equally possible.
I may have a user bias, but I think KBin is already started down that path, of actually making a usuable platform for both communities and users. Unlike say Lemmy that doesn't even really let you follow individual users, and Mastodon, which lets you follow Lemmy Communities, but its hard to follow threads because every post just looks like a Re-Toot by the community "user"
Then again Friendica is pretty nice too, it treats Lemmy communities just as if they are Friendica Forums, and it supports other platforms in addition to ActivityPub, including Diaspora, and allows for integration with Email, Calendar, etc. with several very different "themes" to choose from, with the default, Firo(?), being a UI ver similar to the world's most popular social media platform, Facebook.
The good thing about Free Software is you are never at the mercy of a single provider. If you and your friends like Lemmy, you can always use lemmy. The amount of content might not be what it once was, but you are welcome to use and change, or pay someone else to let you use/change, the service forever. (Like pump.io used to be the whole #Fediverse and now identi.ca is little more than a internet graveyard save me 4 bots, and six people that cross post to Mastodon, but even it may come back now that /u/@evan indicated he's adding ActivityPub to it now that its all the rage.
how can one enjoy working close source? You are welcome to keep your devlopment private, rather than putting it on an open source development protal like GitHub, and just release it under the GPL so the rest of us can learn from your work, without you having to put up with annoying "developers" on the internet.
Do you have a public git for this?
