Or what are some films that are significantly better than the book they were adapted

One of my favourite books, High Fidelity. I think I am in the age range and demo it was written for, so much rings true. When I heard there was a film coming out I was so excited, and then I read it was being moved from London and re-set in Chicago, and my heart sank.

And the Chicago setting 100% worked, better than London would have

exactly this, they can control what is on it, give their journalists, shows, etc accounts and it being a self contained hub for everything bbc, while interacting with rest of the fediverse.

Im guessing they will also get more statistics and information from hosting it themselves as well. its a no brainer.

yup.

I’m on several linux channels, and im a mod on a fairly busy mental and physical health support site.

(the latter also has a web interface so 95% of the young un’s dont even realise they are on IRC)

Im on IRC daily

exactly this.

The first rule of Fight Club…

There’s a few providers who have lasted the course, some as long as ten years, but they don’t have superiptv.xyz websites, they don’t have facebook groups, or twitter accounts. They rely on word of mouth and handle their business on telegram/discord etc

He will end up “compromising”.

You can block people, but only people without blue check marks.
