Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock… and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome 🤟😁

    it’s supposed to be compatible with PieFed’s so Lemmy users can subscribe to PieFed Feeds, and PieFed users can subscribe to Lemmy’s multi-communities

    Good to know, thanks! Since you’re here could I ask about the fetching from !newcommunities@lemmy.world? It’s an interesting feature but it assumes LW will always be here, and moreso that specific community will exist. Is there a way to change the community it fetches from, for future proof? I don’t see LW going any time soon. But I thought the exact same about lemm.ee and was proven wrong, which is why I’m asking. It also assumes that instance is federated with LW, which may not always be the case (as an edge case)

    I’d say it’s a useful reminder for users and for developers alike. For the users, make sure you throw a bit of money at open source projects you benefit from. I personally have a philosophy of spreading out recurring donations very thin: My liberapay is full of somewhat insignificant contributions. If even a relatively small share of people benefiting from open source software did the same we would be in a very different position. Currently 14 people support PieFed on LiberaPay, averaging at 0.8 USD per week. Personally I contribute by dragging down this average quite a bit. Do the same for projects you care about—think about how much you can give without it really affecting your financial status at all, and set up recurring donations of small amounts. Don’t stop yourself from giving just because you feel like you couldn’t contribute a meaningful amount: Organizations often stress that small recurring donations are as valuable if not more than larger one-time donations, as they value financial stability. Personally I cancelled my Dropbox subscription for a much cheaper one based on Nextcloud, and I save quite a bit of money every month that I’m trying to distribute to open source projects. For developers, if money start trickling in, think about the project beyond yourself. Even if you’re doing great now and you enjoy maintaining it, things can happen, and you will in all likelihood burn out at some point. Don’t make the fact that you receive some financial support a stressful element that just adds to your burnout. Try to get other developers onboard, to set up structures so that you don’t feel bad for taking a break, and try to delegate responsibility. It probably feels like a waste of time that could be better spent coding—which is what you’re good at after all—but if your project has gotten to this point, it’s probably worth doing.

    That sounds good. You can tell the developers to open an issue in the Lemmy repo or use our Matrix chats if they have any trouble to get the federation working. Edit: The main thing they need to understand is FEP-1b12.

    Made by Jack Dorsey… but there’s no app that I could find in the Play Store. Not sure how he’s expecting it to take off if the normies expect apps instead of typing it into a browser. Tried using their website and you can’t sign up with email even, so it feels kinda half baked right now unless you’re a Nostr user, which I don’t even know what that is.

    I feel there’s never a good and satisfying answer to this very question… Why have 5 competing instant messengers, why not have one perfect one? Why should we retrofit threaded conversations onto Matrix and not retrofit chat onto a platform that already has threaded conversations? The real world is just messy. There’s a bazillion ways to arrive at a similar thing and there’s also quite some ideas out there and we constantly come up with yet more of them. And then projects grow, sometimes different ones into similar directions. We have different technological origins/roots, different ideologies and motivations that all get into the mix and have an influence on decisions. Things sometimes change during a long process. And then this is made by humans and they often don’t abide by logic. They’ll things just out of fun or because they don’t know any better. I think this is a very valid question, but the world just doesn’t work that way.

    I think Blaze posted some blog post on how to deploy Onion-Services with Torspray a few days ago. And there’s the official TOR documentation. Basically you’d create a hidden service and point it at the port your software opens, or at your reverse proxy. In case of GoToSocial, the rest of info should be in the split-domain deployment. Think of it as you split it between the regular domain and TOR’s onion domain. But I have no experience with GoToSocial, take this with a grain of salt.

    From what I understand, you already do that right now. I do it to get @perfectdark@lemmy.world 's posts on awesome game stuff. [image: aG2xqHotcT0Q8Ci.png] For example this community. Although I do like the “preview” option on the website. Thats neat.

    Another feature i admire with frindica and its family (hubzilla is mine) is how they implemented groups, if i make a post on a group it doesnt get delivered to every one of my connection, it only goes to the community and people in it. On the other hand i can make a post on lemmy using my hubzilla account but it will show up in every one of my followers timeline since it is by default a public post.

    I am not one of the .world admins, so I can’t say for certain how their backend is set up. Ten minutes may just be too short, for example my own private instance is set up to flag posts from the same user that occur within 15mins, and above a threshold number block new events from posting (this prevents issues with Activitypub and local internet latency). If you are concerned about it, you may want to try reaching out to them directly and inquiring about this issue, since they’re the only ones who will be able to answer this question. If I had to bet, you aren’t being singled out and this is indicative of a technical issue that could be resolved. But I don’t know that for sure, and the LW admins may just this petty.

    Not from the clipboard! In Firefox, copy-pasting converts all images to PNG, wasting lots of space. Photos grow by several megabytes. It shoud send the original file from local cache, but it doesn’t.

    Might be worth looking at the behaviour of so called leftists on Lemmy. Many of them openly support and cheer for russia’s invasion of Ukraine and support summary killing of Ukrainians (“summary executions in Bucha [and beyond] is a BIA conspiracy!!!” is not a serious statement), openly state that Ukraine does not have the right to self-determination and generally support the extermination of Ukrainian culture, language and identity. I am from Ukraine, from Donbas (Lugansk) no less. What sort of reaction do you expect when you see alleged leftists cheers for the total occupation of Lugansk by the Russians with BS like “Lugansk is free of da Nasizzz !1!1!”. Or what about Jeromy Corbyn fanboys denying Corbyn’s open support for russian genocidal imperialism (keep in mind these type of things get reported in Ukrainian media)? The fucker literally worked for Russia Today (which is managed by russian intel) and cheered the annexation of Crimea in 2014. As far as I am concerned, I hope all tankies meet the same fate as “Donbas Cowboy”, Russell Bentley. Bentley’s wife, Lyudmila, then claimed that Russian soldiers from a tank battalion abducted him. According to the Investigative Committee, Vansyatsky, Agaltsev, and Iordanov tortured Bentley on April 8, and he died shortly afterward. Vansyatsky and Agaltsev are suspected of blowing up a car with Bentley’s body in it and ordering Bazhin to get rid of what was left of his remains. Is this an unreasonable reaction to disgusting tankies? What reaction do you expect?

    All the data is stored in the nooki PDS. And there is one nooki PDS and can only be one PDS? Or can anyone make one? Users have PDSes (Personal Data Server). Nookie wouldn’t have a PDS, it could have its own database but that’s not anything to do with the protocol. The theory with ATProto is that user facing interfaces (App Views) write data directly to PDSes and then this data is aggregated by a giant index (Relays). This relay data is then consumed by those App Views that sort them into posts, replies, likes etc. and presents it to the user as a usable interface to interact with. That’s the high level gist, Bluesky is ridiculously over-engineered as it’s made by a bunch of cryptobros who wanted ‘social media but on the blockchain’ originally and this bleeds into the wider ATProto ecosystem. I can’t speak for nookie, it could just be a basic centralised site that uses Bluesky as a sign-in mechanism. (That’d make sense given the apparent author prompted it here before and didn’t say it had any ATProto integration and it used to have the ability to create accounts).
