No.

To have a decentralised network, you need a lot of servers storing some data and a access algorithm thar searches for the pieces. There are a lot of hard problems:

• you need various copies because each node can go offline any moment. This works for pirated DVDs, but not for social media posts.
• you need to store a lot of the network in each node. The user needs to contribute to the network. Few people will donate GBs of storage and bandwidth to use a social network. You will get only a few enthusiasts.
• search is a nightmare nobody have really solved.

The architecture is good for storing and distributing many copies of a few very popular contents (and shines in torrent) but is bad for storing, searching for, and accessing many unpopular and mildly popular contents.

If your sd card dies, just use a real ssd, sata or nvme.

I think all non fascist instances moved to Akkoma once it was released.

Your choice was not exaggerated, but plain wrong. Trump is censoring universities right now in the so called democratic first world.

Ghost is a CMS. It spits HTML.

Ghost is a powerful app for professional publishers to create, share, and grow a business around their content. It comes with modern tools to build a website, publish content, send newsletters & offer paid subscriptions to members.

For me, this first paragraph from the site says clearly that they are a tool to build sites and sell content.

It’s not serverless, of course. Each peer is a server and the peer that created the “sub” have control to be able to moderate things. You have to maintain your peer always online, because it’s a server. Traffic happens over IPFS, which is sloooooow.

ActivityPub is not perfect, but this is just a channer wanting some freeze prach space he can control.

Not federated

Writefreely is alive. Plume not.

If you don’t have strong privacy concerns, you can use the free tier vps from oracle cloud or Google cloud. They are small, but are more than enough for this load.

Reading the white paper you find the “serverless” has servers. Each community needs to be always online to serve captchas to posters. The system is federated on community level, instead of instance level, and uses DHT instead of DNS.

Some people report less server load with Piefed.

Brazillian here. Out biggest Mastodon instance (ursal.zone) is locally hosted, but is behind Cloudflare and appears as US in this list. Most of Brazilian instances are foreign hosted because of cost. This table means nothing in terms of fediverse penetration on Brazil. We have a huge population, and even as most of Brazilian are monolingual, the minority of bilinguals are millions that can read English. Even monolinguals are doing just fine using Brazilian instances, even if foreign hosted.

Tanks.

It’s possible to use Lemmy clients with piefed? Tried boost and can’t login.
