You're on G+?
-
Google+ is now in open beta. WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WAITING FOR???

You used to be about the freedom, man.

@fabsh A recognition that forcing people to use their credit card name isn't a good idea.

@fabsh Heh, "waiting" implies that I'll eventually join. :D
-
@jasonriedy my credit card name is not my real name. and I'm not telling you my real name either cause I don't use it. ever.
-
where is the dislike button

@fabsh Google is not good for social stuff. Sooner or later it screws things up. Also, G+ has nothing new to offer.

@ajpaulson Ha, I've never seen that. Yep, thats how I roll. (just with a more chimp like appearance). ;)
-
@x1101 That should be proof enough. Ok, I'll get on G+ and order a few credit cards in that name. :P

@fabsh I'm not waiting. I just don't want it - at all.
-
Fair enough.
-
@nybill Never seen... NEVER? Go get a copy of Empire Records right frakkin now! I'll wait while you watch it.
-
You know, I've been on identica for years and federation never saved my arse once. I stopped seeing the point TBH.
-
Google is better for social stuff than this ATM.
-
Because it looks like crap and nobody is on there. Feature parity? Don't kid yourself. One word: Hangouts.
-
On Facebook I presume. See you there. (Or not.)
-
I prefer their website to any client app ATM.
-
@fabsh … yet.
-
It has nicknames. They just don't do anything with them. ;)
-
I can't see how it's a bad idea. I did that with identica for years.
-
@fabsh its not about saving your ass. Its about being able to setup a decentralized infrastructure based on an accepted protocol
-
Not really. I used to be misunderstood. Freedom is worthless if it holds me back.
-
what I tried to convey was I dislike your post :) I dislike the fact that you (out of all people) pr…
-
that's a good dent to quote :)
-
@fabsh Its not that I mind if they have my name. I just don't want it displayed. Don't want to be looked up by old friends, fam, alum, etc..
-
I understand. I hope they'll fix that.
-
Me out of all people? You either don't listen to LO or you have misunderstood me for 4 years.
-
@fabsh that makes no sense. Sooner or later there will be something you will want to do on a non-free service that you wont be able to do.
-
Which never happened.
-
@fabsh Sunday, I could have set up my own Status.net instance if I wanted to keep denting. In fact, I still might...
-
And right now there is lots of stuff I ant to do that I can't do on this free service.
-
That's cool. I like the stuff you post on Google+.
-
I have the hope that one day I'll be back on here. I'm not deleting my account, I ain't stupid. :)
-
@fontana ... With G+ data it's a bit hard to do anything useful, and with your own !statusnet... Well, it's yours!

*nod* although you can get to all of your own (or anyone's) posts through some scripting, that's about it

it's a bit like backing up all your e-mail from gmail by opening POP sessions until you got it all #beentheredonethat

G+? No thanks. Using DIASPORA* instead.

I left G+ wks ago, joined the D* community at diasp.org, now at Friendika too. I'd never go back, especially now that they are federated.
-
I use friendika also, and now that you can add one from the other (D* to F federation) I am really enjoying it.
-
google happens to dislike my name. also: WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO THE REAL @FABSCH :P
-
@fabsh StatusNet is still far superior. UI can be fixed. Freedom makes the difference.
-
@fabsh The "open" in "open beta" does not mean that G+ is open. Non-federated social networking is fail and I won't waste my time on it.
-
@bkuhn i've complained about this in the past, and it's sad that nothing has been done about it
-
@fabsh I nuked my account there. It wasn't worth it as it was a pain to use without a client for my phone. In my rural area, cell phone
-
@fabsh coverage can be quite an adventure to where even Iridium has to be considered.
-
God sacke, where are you there. I'm allready there wth LOL
-
@alpacaherder Is Iridium still alive? I've heard about its demize and acquisition from company to company so many times. Who has it now?
-
StatusNet 1.0 is now here.
-
@fabsh For them to stop minding that I use a name in daily life that's different from the one on my government ID.
-
@clacke Yep, they're still alive. They've been coming out with new hardware too.
-
statusnet is where it's at, dude.
