dass Admins im Fediverse zunehmend meinen, ihre Nutzer vor bösen anderen Instanzen abschirmen zu müssen.
Das Fediverse ist im Grunde erstmal eine Umverteilung des Vertrauens; anstatt Twitter/Reddit vertraust du den Instanzinhaber von Mastodon/Lemmy. Was der im endeffekt macht kann er selbst entscheiden.
Aber; du kannst dir einfach nen Account auf nem anderen Server anlegen und den Communities folgen! Niemand sagt, dass du auf einer Instanz festhängst. :)
I am actually surprised IPFS isn’t leveraged more for this.
This is quite neat. Been using DaddyLive to watch Bundesliga with Kodi, wrapped in some random extension… Rising Tides, I think it was?
No, just the way the Fediverse works. :)
…and, to go on a bit of a tangent, how the internet “used to” work. You still see the remnant with E-Mails; they can go between servers. Most other services have become locked and centralized now. There was a short bit of time where MSN, AIM and YIM were practically compatible with one another due to sharing many of the same XMPP protos.
Personally I am happy to see this again, been too long ^^
…and still won’t pay a coffee! :D
I’d chirp you a yes. Though, more for fun than anything, I have been called a “featherly” before x)
Also - if you wonder what my species is, it’s in the name and avatar v
I joined the furry community somewhere in 2009 - the internet was a whole different world at the time. The idea of dynamically fetching content via JavaScript was still “being explored”, in a way.
Initially, I landed on ychan/yiffy.tk and spent a great deal of time there and found many friends. I had landed there, because I was looking for something else, but found a Panty and Stockings rule34 picture and decided to dig down further into this “awkward, odd, but interesting thing”.
To make a long story short: I am german, and my english was bad. Through roleplaying and interactions I learned how to speak and write english so much and drasticaly, that I improved by magnitudes and actually wrote the school’s highest ranked final exam for graduation in my entire year. I also started to run my own community - those who remember who Karma was and what he did, might know what I mean - when the admin started to swing the ban hammer…aimlessly. xD
From there, I maintained the community all the way to 2015. Due to IRL circumstances, I had to let it go. But, it still lives on as a discord server.
In all that time, I have bought many commissions, done a boatload of roleplays, found people to pour my heart out to and find some friends that I have stuck with since. In fact, most of the core-members of the community I founded (Dragon’s Inn) are still my friends!
So yeah, the fandom gave me a lot and I will be forever thankful, which is why I keep using my phoenix icon, although I haven’t bought a commission in a while, let alone roleplayed… It just means too much to me. <3
Selfhosted Vaultwarden and the Bitwarden apps.
Gives me access to all my things basically any time and anywhere. Its pretty neat. And if I don’t want it anymore, I can export the data and just nuke it - and it’s gone. :)
Was thinking the same - this looks like a prime usecase for IPFS, honestly.
Interesting. Will give it a try, thanks for the hint!
Honestly, the interesting tidbits you learn as you dig yourself into that rabbit hole is actually quite intriguing and fun. So yeah - I’d say it is also quite “fun” for the process itself!
C: What if you used emojis for pointer (*
) and deref (&
) signs?
Good call! That said, I am still going to have to copy-paste a lot of community handles… Oh well, it works for now, I guess.
Thanks for the idea!
When I add !privacy@lemmy.ml
into my search field, it doesn’t show anything - in fact, it ends up telling me that there are no results. I have to then go into the Communities tab again, and hope it shows up there.
I can see it doing work as I watch the logs. But this is really a little weird/frustrating. I hope this sees improvement eventually! =)
Let’s see… Just today, in their presentation for the next patch, a child character got a new outfit, and a teaser that the next archon (god) is a kid - again. xD
I sometimes wonder wtf they’re doing, ngl…
