  • Isn’t the whole point of federation to allow users to choose the instance they want to use? I think it sets a bad precedent if instances were to block them from federating entirely without reason simply because that instance happens to be run by Meta.

    If anything, this would be a huge boon for federated networks and ActivityPub as a whole to have participation from such a large-scale user base.

    And there are a lot of people out there who would be scared away from the technical learning curve of things like Lemmy, Mastodon, etc - giving them a more “conventional” way to participate in federated networks is a great way to get people acquainted.

    More participation is a good thing.



  • v1 of Vision Pro? Probably not.

    Once the tech has matured and the price point comes down? Probably.

    This is a relatively new product category so it’s tough to predict, but if you’re going solely off of Apple’s track record the last 20 years, the first couple of iterations will be enthusiast/luxury products that will drive interest and create demand, and then will become more commonplace. iPod, iPhone, Apple Watch all followed this lifecycle for the most part.



  • You probably want a tool like Clonezilla that will image and clone the existing M.2 drive to the new drive.

    The simplest way would likely be to use a USB-C hub on your Steam Deck, plug in your new M.2 and adapter, and boot Clonezilla from a flash drive to do the image/clone. Then install the new M.2 and you theoretically should be good to go.

    I’m not fully familiar with SteamOS’s partition structure so there’s a chance for some compatibility issues with the SteamOS bootloader or something like that, but worst-case scenario would be you just do a clean install of SteamOS on the new M.2 if the clone doesn’t work.
