Starting your own instance doesn’t solve the problem of big communities being reliant on the one specific instance they are hosted on to not go down or rogue.

I imagine it like friend requests between communities: x@instance.a, all-about-x@instance.b and x-is-great@instance.c could send each other friend requests and merge into one federated meta-community about x. Then if one instance goes down the other two are still there to keep the meta-community alive, and if one goes rogue the others can just unfriend and keep going without it.
The nice thing about manual federation is that the communities don’t have to have exactly the same name, and the mods can keep malicious or troll communities out. And ofc you could still have client-side control if you want to, e.g. add or remove a community just for you locally, or create your own local meta-community.
The database, storage and network are usually the bottlenecks in these kinds of websites, not the programming language. It might add a few ms of latency, but the big lags come from congestion or bad db queries.
What comment?
Signal if possible, WhatsApp if not. I’m also trying out Session, but it’s still very much work-in-progress.
Just leaving this here: Aurora Store
Depends on the level of technology we are using. If we’re zapping around from one habitable planet or interesting space phenomenon to another star trek style then absolutely yes! But a hard no with our current level of technology. I like to spend my time in an environment that’s actually somewhat friendly to life.
We could also just delete stuff after some time. Nobody really needs the 1000th repost of a meme from 20 years ago.
I blocked a handful of people who posted something every few minutes.
Fedora! To me it sits right at the sweet spot of stability and bleeding edge (they call it “leading edge”), and I’m very happy with how they run things (including the most recent controversy!).
Also depends how the other clock is broken, if we’re this picky about it.
Fix is on the way: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/1021
Here is an in-depth technical explaination video.
Also, appart from the obvious restrictions, business can structure their prices however they like.
Apparently ChatGPT is really good as a personal tutor. You can ask it specific questions and it will answer with detailed tutorials and step-by-step guides.
While this is probably still true, I doubt it’s a big factor when talking about mass adoption.
I won’t buy Apple hardware as long as they keep being absolute dicks in the tech and app world. It’s a shame really, because they build awesome devices, but I would feel bad everytime I use them.
Also they are much more restricted in many aspects (e.g. sideloading!), so it would be a downgrade for me.
Imo admins should not allow the lockdown of a community on one instance in favor of the one on another. It’s fine if the original mod wants to switch, but then just get someone else to mod the community or close it down until someone decides to claim it again.
No you don’t. Federation means you can subscribe and post in a community on one instance with the account from another instance.
An app to manage important config and unit files (fstab, hosts, sysctl, systemd units, …), and present them as settings menu or editor with auto completion and tooltips. Kinda like how VSCode handles settings, where you can use the GUI or a context-aware text editor.
