Why is Loops getting Push Notifications before the Pixelfed app?
Complexity, in Loops its under 50 LoC for Push Notification support since we are using Expo Notifications.
For Pixelfed, we need to build WebPush support in the backend, and then setup a proxy server.
That being said, I expect them to land in Pixelfed later this summer!

well it's official. i'm off instagram for good. the enshitification of that platform made it so incredibly bad that i can't tolerate it anymore even though it was my last place where i connected with many of my friends back home. it came to a point where everything i saw was either an ad or a view farming post. just reached a point i couldn't take any longer.
It really sucks that all the internet platforms have taken such a horrible turn and people are just being held hostage by convenience :(

Here is an article at The Nation detailing the response of numerous u.s. campus administrations to this month's protests, each written by people from those schools.
Basically, their reports paint a picture that feels like campus administrations have declared war on their own students.

There's always some cowardly POS who'll do whatever the police say and expect everyone else to follow suit.

Interesting idea that frames rich countries as having a "climate debt" to poor coutries:
"The economist Fadhel Kaboub suggests a way out: the World Bank and IMF could lend money to historical polluters to help them pay for their #ClimateDebt to poor nations. "
(But when Keynes proposed it in a different context, the US vetoed it).

Surprise!!
Report
US says military battalions with the IDF committed "gross human rights violations" against Palestinian civilians in the West Bank.
However, the battalions "will remain eligible for U.S. military aid because of steps Israel says it's taking to address the problem."
The administration assessment was outlined in an undated letter by Blinken to Mike Johnson obtained by ABC News.

If we can be partners with Saudi Arabia with way more human rights violations per person there is no reason why we can't with China other than because of xenophobia.

I know not everyone has the freedom to do this, but there have been two times in my life when I didn’t get paid on time, and both times I told them wow I’m really sorry but I don’t actually have enough gas money to come to work tomorrow. I’ll be in as soon as payroll hits though.
The first time it happened they were really mad about it and they figured out a way to fire me later on that month. I got a new job on my way home from work so it was no big deal.
The second time it happened the owner of the company wrote me a personal check for $100 and I just had to pay him back when payroll hit. I was kind of mad about that, I was looking forward to taking the day off.

"Constitution in the Crosshairs"
Far-right groups plan to radically rewrite the Constitution.
Bankrolled by Big Oil, Koch Industries & mega-donors — they want to take America back to when it was largely devoid of federal oversight.
At stake are all of our rights & a century of progress in making America a more just society via workers’ rights, social security & affordable health insurance.
