For others, the number is 8 “monthly active users”.

As this instance is partially operating on “free” hardware, it’s unlikely one can host an instance for much cheaper.

Would you mind sharing your active user count?

Similar, non-wavelength specific translucent panels were for sale a month ago when I bought my 400W traditional panels. It’s not just feasible. It’s already for sale.

What a frivolous use of flying sheep.

If you are unhappy about an instance’s moderation it’s a free fediverse, you can always create a better-moderated one.

I could also call your implied false dichotomy part of the dumbing down of America, then make a new account elsewhere and no longer participate in threads originating from this instance.

So, because removal is too much punishment there’ll be no punishment at all, even now in the second draft of damage control.

They could remove the moderator’s ability to post for a period of six months. But, they’ve not chosen it.

Seems it’s time to go.

Finally, someone with some sense.

Decentralization is one way, the most accessible by far. Proton is an example of another way. Yet another is to never scale.

Look at Proton, Wikipedia, or the Internet Archive.

History has always been in the hands of the victors. We’ve finally created a significant exception. But, status quo society doesn’t want the responsibility of reasoning out their own decisions or understanding those of others. They’ll believe it best to hand their power back to their oppressors. Even if they believe their oppressors “good”, they’re choosing to enslave greatness to democratic mediocrity. Anything but personal sacrifice.

This makes sense. I had to poke around the UI to figure it out. And, the client occasionally needs rebooted or the cache cleared. I can see how some users would have trouble.

I’d suggest that teaching those users is probably easier than setting up Plex today and then setting up Jellyfin as an emergency service when Plex inevitably begins ad injection or introduces a paywall for local streaming.

Where’s Jellyfin failing the spouse test? My spouse preferred it to Plex because she could turn off all the crap on the home screen.

A basic bitch office workstation is like $20 at a garage sale to $150 from a refurb shop with a Windows license. Cutting the case is twenty minutes for template and cut.

Nothing fiscally competes with these.

As Lemmy has scaled it’s approaching average. The masses have chosen to demonized minority opinions not for profit, but for short term comfort. They’ll enshitify socially. It’ll be faster than profit max as there’s no delay to begin.

As soon as those decades old and severely degraded copper lines are replaced in all of those old neighborhoods where fiber is slowest to roll out, DSL can provide a higher cost and subpar service on a deprecated standard. That’s exactly what we need with a surplus of capacity on modern hardware already deployed in the field.

We’ll all have broadband in no time if they’d just listen to you.
