It was kinda long so i just used ai to summarize it _/j

but seriously, wow, it is exactly what I’ve been thinking would be the perfect policy, they really nailed it.

I use a instance running continuwuity and every new/experimental (i.e, matrix 2.0) feature in the client works

Yup, totally different, continuwuity and synapse are the main two, and although there are others, they’re just less good.

The commercial implementation is also open source, but there is a a proprietary version aimed at large enterprise customers that adds better optimization for very large deployments, and better auditing and moderation tools.

See here for all the servers, clients and bridges can also be viewed from there: https://matrix.org/ecosystem/servers/

That’s because you’re the goat and photon is awesome

The problem is that voice&video and spaces/servers are necessary for how most people use these sorts of chat apps nowadays

To your point about significant platforms, there are other significant platforms (by fediverse standards) like pckt, so it is not as bad as it used to be, bsky is just so large it makes them all look small in comparison. As for standards because of the way lexicons work platforms using standard.site, for instance, have their own thing going on that bsky can’t change.

No, nothing to do with phone lines, but it’s also not quite a web automation thing either, well, I guess it is, but it also does more. It’s meant to facilitate personal ownership of data and federation between instances of services, much like the fediverse (Hence why I put it here).

Not really, it’s like building your own furniture, cool, but far from practical and not worth it for most people.

The only way it would help the cause is by decentralising a service that’s mostly on one host, like bluesky, but that’s not a problem on lemmy, and the main advantage can be done by switching to a more niche instance (lemmy.world -> lemdro.id / bsky.app -> eurosky)

Their “AI platform” thing is mostly marketing nonsense, they were around before the AI bubble, it’s the same tech as google translate (technically AI, but not the same kind).

My point was mostly that they should write a text in chinese the way they want then machine translate it to english, so the structure and substance is human-made.

it seems like their first language is chinese, and they can’t write well in english

Just so you know in the future it’d probably be better to write your post in chinese and then use deepl to translate it if you can’t write a good text in english. Might end up a tad stilted but people here would like it a lot more, since the text AI generates in english is both artificial (nobody talks like that) and annoying to read.

Bluesky is federated though. Like, you can selfhost every part of it and communicate with bsky users just fine: see wafrn and blacksky.

You can argue that it’s not decentralised because one instance has 99% of the users though

If you look at the MSC’s only half of it is, and to convince people to switch I’d need a reasonable fast (Sliding sync) client with native voice chat (matrixRTC) that has a somewhat discord-like UI.

So basically I just have to wait for cinny to implement that.

The

most clients adopt it

was the important part of my comment

I agree, but right now the clients aren’t quite mature enough. Once matrix 2.0 is done and merged and most clients adopt it it should be good

Imo all it needs is for 2.0 to come out and for discord-like clients like cinny to mature to get to a point where it’s a good discord replacement, and both of those seem pretty close to happening.

not true, the only one that’s just a rebranded pre-existing app is tchap, and most of them are made from scratch

looks great! Thank you for making this

Good article, but the text contrast is horrible

It’s always funny to me that blue means left to americans.
