So as much as I dislike crypto, it is basically built to be enshitification proof. And hence a good fit for the fediverse. But I wouldn’t want to touch the crypto ecosystem with a ten foot pole, nevermind a lemmy/mastodon integration

Which leaves us at the behest of traditional payment processors, and they are all faceless conglomerates who care not for anyone. Meaning we’re fucked there too

Maybe we should instead not bring transactions to the fediverse

You might be able to do mac address cloning for fiber ports, if you have openwrt or similar it usually offers it.

A firewall may not offer full routing and NAT though for ipv4 devices, or wifi if you need it, or ipv6, or many other features. I’ve also used a cable modem and stuck the router in the dmz which essentially makes it a passthrough device also in the past

Basically, play with it and good luck!

It encourages dog-piling essentially

Fesshole

I think asking other instances to remove too is reasonable also

This is big. Bluesky is getting lots of traction with normies who want off Twitter. Mastodon and pleroma and pixelfed all about to become much more discoverable

It is lemmy essentially. By far most communities, users, and a single point of failure in essence. That makes is quite good for getting it technically correct however, the best kind of correct

Reddit took many years to build that reputation. And earned creepy badges along the way. I’m not saying the fediverse doesn’t need to do it, but let’s not be in a rush. We have technical challenges, and a lemmy.world, and a .ml problem before we’re ready for the big leagues

And being niche is fine for now, email was tiny for decades

Jerboa, very Reddit is Fun like, on f-droid too!

I prefer jerboa

Great news indeed then, go Mastodon!

Lemmy has the same issues I believe. Lots of people not exactly happy with the two core devs either

Given the concern, it would be good to be explicit in the blog post. What other assets does it genuinely need? The code is open source, people are free to host instances

No mention of the name Mastodon and copyrights which I seem to recall is one of the bigger complaints

So with british law, the intent of the law is as important as the written texts. Listen to the debates which can and are used by judges from the commons and the lords to decide upon intent. It’s not for tiny forums, but I’m also not a lawyer. Significant most likely relates to not just user count, but also other reporting from other media, it’s significance of significant users, anonymity, and ability to break bigger stories. Try codifying any of that (and more!) in a law

I don’t believe it would target any of the fediverse currently. No instances have significant volumes of users or target markets. This is designed to target facebooks, tik-toks, and twitters. Services that do influence populations. Essentially, making these services actually responsible for their algorithmic output and akin to publishers in the UK

Simple. Don’t be a company. Companies exist to sell stuff: the fediverse doesn’t. There are a few other structures in the UK alone to circumvent this potential law, which is designed to combat large social media companies. And it won’t affect outside the UK either, and with brexit - will anyone else bother enforcibg?

A csv of kick off times (in UTC) and who is playing would be helpful to whomever takes this up

Fuck yes, networks of forums are fabulous, as we on lemmy have to all agree. Welcome to the threadiverse NodeBB!

False, god can’t die

It’s a bit different, and good for it
