  • You have to understand we are not normal users. Anyone even remotely interested in federated software are not normal users.

    Bluesky may not have 57 third party apps and that’s why people are flocking to it. It’s easy. The signup process through the app involved no selecting of servers, no understanding of what it actually is under the hood, and users are greeted by a default algorithm that feels very much like old Twitter before Musk.

    Basically, regular users do not care about the fediverse and just want a competent and polished app and site experience.






  • I’ve seen this one which may fit what you’re looking for. No idea about open source firmware though.

    This one might work for you too.

    Really though, if you’re already spending money on a smart switch, you should probably just replace the outlet, other switch, and faceplate with decora (rectangle style) versions while you’re at it. It’s only going to run about $10 total for all those. Plus you can then use a smart switch that meets your firmware needs.
