    The iOS community vibe on 🧵has been very refreshing. Probably not logging on here much, at least for now, TBH. 👋 threads.net/@parrots01

    Hey Xcode dev tools team: FB12567165. I think it'd be great if you persisted the debugger output filter y'all added in Xcode 15 to the workspace settings. We'd be able to get rid of the `OS_ACTIVITY_MODE` = `disabled` trick finally.

    Yes, I've been playing a lot of Aliens: Dark Descent. Why do you ask? <boop, boop, boop>

    Which in the long term might have been for the worse for BS. Social networks get worse the bigger they get. I don’t like the cool-kid gate keeping, but this might just preserve BS’s vibe long term. Let Threads be the high school cafeteria, BS can be the anti-establishment.

    Replying to @parrots
    I think if BlueSky had scaled up quicker, they could have also done what Threads probably will end up doing. But BlueSky took the conservative route (for better or worse) and well, we are left with a Meta / Zuckerberg monopoly…

    Honestly? Once the dust settles I think Threads is going to fill the Twitter-shaped hole people were hoping Mastodon would be. Mastodon won’t die, but it’ll be the niche Linux-on-the-desktop social platform, and lose a lot of Twitter refugees in the near term.
