haha not at all, it’s moreso that it seems like the open source weather app category has a particularly large gap in options on iOS vs Android compared to other categories, which I found strange. But I can see why the usual factors are causing it, as other commenters mentioned.

lol it’s not that serious dude, idc about Musk, I’m discussing the concept of block vs mute.

Yeah but with blocking, the user is made aware that they were blocked and can then try to circumvent it by making another account and whatnot. With mute aka “personal shadowban”, the user isn’t aware they were muted and will just keep using that same account to harass, not realizing that their target isn’t seeing their crap.

To be fair, Musk said you’d still be able to mute users, which means you wouldn’t see any of their posts or replies, but they can see your posts.

It’s like you’re shadow banning them from your own app experience lol

Giving more options to H1B visa tech workers is great! In order for Canada to compete for all tech talent in the US though (including US citizens), Canadian tech companies will need to have much better salaries.

User accounts being key-based/portable is one of the strengths of the nostr protocol and Bluesky/AT Protocol.
