  • I read their Technology page which isn't entirely word salad like the front page is. Based. No one company should control your social graph, I'm an advocate of data sovereignty as well on that note. Also, to corporations: Fuck your authority.

  • I actually switched to Endeavor recently. My buddy Eli, however, absolutely swears by Spiral Linux, a Debian-based distro with the same goals Ubuntu had before it became a corporate Snapcraft-forcing shithole

  • Removed
    at least one lemmy.world admin accepted an off the record meeting with meta, and they won't tell you about it.
  • If you're still using this account, I run my own. If you set up a domain and $5 Linode, just spin one up and follow the Ansible instructions. Setting up Lemmy was SHOCKINGLY easy for all the shit Lemmy is actually responsible for handling.

  • ActivityPub wasn't built with the purpose of having a "killer app" in mind. That's centralization logic. The point is for all apps to be able to talk to each other regardless of where on the network and maintaining the ability to do so seamelessly without the user having to think too much about it.

    Mastodon should be able to talk to Lemmy. Lemmy should be able to talk to Pixelfed. Et cetera. I don't believe XMPP had the same purpose, matter of fact I remember it just being a subpar IM protocol iirc, and I don't see social media going by the wayside the way IM clients of the past did.

  • Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds?
  • FreeBSD is being used by Netflix and others, I don't use it because I'm not offended by virtual hugs, but it might appeal to those who really hate systemd these days. Linux started being commercialized in the 90's, the same decade it came out, and the same decade Microsoft wrote the "Halloween docs." Linux took root pretty damn quick in the grand scheme of things. It may never take the server market, but Linux has been kicking ass since a few years after it was announced.

  • No, they re-publish the work of WHATWG in standards form, the vendors literally made a pact not to deal with them. Then sometime in the last decade they standardized EME, even after the technology activists told them fucking not to. Defective By Design said this shit for years, decades, and W3C ignored everyone. I have more reason not to trust Berners-Lee at this point than put any stock in his leadership skills.
