  • I think the fact that more information is becoming readily available on federated platforms due to more people moving over to Mastodon and Lemmy for example is definitely making the platform grow as well. With Twitt- sorry, “X” locking down threads to an account, the information on there, as well as other sites eventually, I guarantee, will become less accessible over time. The fediverse hardly has that issue of it’s information becoming less available, and if anything, the structure of hosted instances makes that near impossible for the time being to be phased out. If Threads, for example, went through with adding fediverse support, it probably would not be as widespread as others like Mastodon as such, because the sites that power ActivityPub were designed with users in mind instead of profit.


  • If you’re intending to purely stream games or something along those lines, you might want to look at one of those really cheap Fire tablets, new or used. They clearly are intended with planned obsolescence in mind unfortunately, but as long as you get one from 2015 after, you probably shouldn’t have any issues with app compatibility. Do note that if you plan on rooting or installing Linux, they aren’t that great of an option as their process is strange and complicated.

    In terms of running Linux on, there are a few Atom-based cheap 8-10 inch tablets from Dell and other manufacturers that you can buy for dirt cheap used, and they could probably serve your purpose quite well.
