Discoverability in the fediverse in general (outside of Lemmy) is a bit shite. Best just to stay here with us.

Set up Jellyfin with Yunohost, it comes with all the fun security stuff built in.
IMO, Dan has some responsibility but more of it lies with Mastodon and other microblogging software that labels this post type as “private”, “followers only” or similar without any further explanation. It needs to be clear that it’s dependent on good faith and competence of remote servers that may collect that information.
Moreover we need to do a better job of letting users know that anything posted on the internet, and especially anything posted to the fediverse where it’s backed up on potentially thousands of servers, should be assumed to be publicly-visible and eternal. If nothing else, it will be backed up on the internet archive. If you want to communicate privately, this is the wrong place.
I wish there was a private social media platform but it seems like the closest we’re going to get is Signal.
Also “the bullying problem” has nothing to do with the Fediverse and everything to do with people in general and the erosion of nuance.
Ghost is open source, non profit and self host able.
Okay now do videos
Yeah this just sounds like one of the drawbacks of a federated system. In order for people on remote servers to be able to see your “private” posts, your local server has to feed that info to them and trust them to handle it appropriately.
I’m not getting it but I know others are.
It’s not.
I’ve asked them several times and they have declined.
What can we do? What can we do about Meta and Xitter and Reddit? Just try to show people that there’s another side where the grass actually is greener and invite them to join.
You can on phanpy.social
This is the best Masto frontend, in my opinion.
I much prefer this one
Might be that I don’t believe you either.
You missed the part where I said I’ve also tried a half a dozen different servers. And if they all also screwed up then that is just a different type of problem that still exists.
Sliding sync did nothing.
Loading times are a skill issue? You could at least try to make sense while you’re being a dick.
I have a Matrix server. I’ve also used a half a dozen others. Every one of them you have sit there and stare at it for 5-10 secs and watch the messages roll in every time you open the app.
Fun is the least of my concerns. I don’t know why people compare the 2 when they have almost nothing in common. One is a chat app and the other is a voice/streaming/community app. Matrix is slow as hell and the way “spaces” are implemented is a joke.
Honestly outside of the incessant pop-ups and upsells and the whole selling everything to AI companies, it’s pretty great for private communities.
I never liked Twitter and don’t like Mastodon. It’s just a fundamentally flawed platform. But I’m glad it exists for those people.
Wouldn’t it be cool if these were built into their respective platforms!?
I think Sepia Search was actually integrated into PeerTube in the last update (7.1)
