What silliness.

It’s literally Valve’s plan to officially put out SteamOS 3 for more devices. The upcoming Beta was announced only recently too: gamingonlinux.com/2025/01/valv…

Valve have said repeatedly, for years, this was their plan.

This stupid fear pushing is ridiculous.

PCGamesN: “Seeing SteamOS on a ROG Ally has me worried about the Steam Deck”
Pocket Tactics: “SteamOS looks great on the Asus ROG Ally, but could it spell danger for the Steam Deck?”

Valve confirms a public beta of SteamOS is coming as 'SteamOS expands beyond Steam Deck'

With the announcement of the Lenovo Legion Go S as the first third-party SteamOS device, Valve have now officially announced that SteamOS Linux is expanding beyond the Steam Deck.

Agreed that the article's contention is silly. Valve might not even WANT to make hardware, but doing so makes the Steam store more attractive. Other handhelds using Steam will mean more money. The money Valve makes off of Steam Deck sales must be a rounding error compared to the game sales.

As the day ends, the Trump gang is not backing off an inch from its use of Signal, in blatant violation of the Federal Records Act. Democrats haven't yet focused on it; nor has most of the press.

But Josh Marshall gets it: "These are disappearing communications. They won’t be in the National Archives. Future administrations won’t know what happened. There also won’t be any records to determine whether crimes were committed."

Well, still, there'd be no reason not to strip out the [class] wrapper since other platforms can't use it anyway. There isn't anything similar in Markdown so far as I know, which might be why the raw BBcode is getting through to Disapora? I'm guessing it's missing the conversion from BBcode [class] to Markdown syntax. Which should be conversion to nothing. I'd check for it myself but I have no clue where the processing for other platforms even is in the Friendica code.

New: Fediverse Report 109

This week, an essay about #Bluesky's proposal for setting user preferences on their accounts. This allows people to indicate how they want their data to be handled off-protocol. I wrote about how the #fediverse can improve on this, using its strengths of many different communities, each with its own culture and values.

Also:
- Next week is the digital conference @fediforum
- A research dataset to compare Threads and Mastodon users

Read at: fediversereport.com/fediverse-…

The fediverse can sidestep the question of default account values because people have many accounts on the fediverse, for different use cases. This gives the option to set a different default value for different services. A Pixelfed platform for close friends should set stricter default data-handling preferences. A Mastodon server for blogging platform Medium that has the goal of giving more visibility and reach to its writers could consider setting default values to be more open. The power of the fediverse is in that there does not have to be a single default at all. Instead, communities and servers should be able to set default values for themselves. This can help shape the tone of the community, and makes it clear what the identity of a community is about. What’s even more powerful is that this only concerns the default value, giving people the ability to set their preferences as they desire. The state of the open social web is such that there are now two protocols in competition with each other. That gives the ability for the fediverse to take ideas from other networks, and improve on them in a way that plays up to the unique strengths that the fediverse has.

Fediverse Report – #109

An essay on user preferences, and how the fediverse's interconnected network of communities can play into that, as well as some other news.

@Gargron yeah, but that does not cover everything. Especially such more interesting cases as the mastodon threads research dataset that was just released.

Regardless, the essay is about who sets the default values, and that this decision should be delegated to server admins, and not made by software platforms such as mastodon itself

Mastodon asks the user after sign-up what their preference is. And of course different platforms can handle this differently, e.g. if Threads has no expectations of being able to participate without appearing in discovery feeds, they would default to true.

Right. That's kind of the point! The proto-fediverse was dominated by a VC-funded startup -- just like today's ATmosphere. And eight to ten years later the next-generaiton protocols (originally also developed by a corporation) got refined and adopted by a standards bodies -- just like will probably happen with AT Proto.

And presumably just as somebody from a Meta-funded non-profit has repeatedly shut down criticisms of Meta on the W3C ActivityPub mailing list, at some point somebody from a Bluesky-funded non-profit will try to shut down criticisms of Bluesky on whatever standards group is trying to take things forward.

There's a lot to critique with Bluesky but many of the critques apply to the ActivityPub fediverse as well.
