Matrix is just yet another nu-protocol. If there’s going to be investment it better be on something like XMPP. Maaaaaybe IRC.

• Bad. Don’t even need to comment on this one.
• Non-conductive: spammers can just wait it out, whereas real users get demotivated.
• Dangerous: can be used for remotely censoring queer stuff.

Ooooh I see some names from the Ars Javetia.

An Rπ is lite enough that you can send a bunch of those to the Moon. After that all you need is a solar panel, good LAN wiring and a satcom link.

What does capitalism do but logically terminate resources?

But note taken. I just think the comparison is inspiring.

Discord? UUUUGGHHHHH. For chat, XMPP already exists.

But overall, one of the issues of “why does an alternative to XYZ not exist?” is that usually, when we talk about those corporate jails, XYZ does too much for anyone to up and create a 1:1 alternative. This is valid both in and out the Fediverse. Discord is currently a chat platform, a video platform, a streaming platform, a documentation platform (ugggh), an issue tracker (UUUGHHH), an FBI / ICE honeypot, and a picture gallery.

For unreasonable people (the majority of the internet as it would seem), even lacking one of those features is somehow a “deal breaker”, when it actually makes perfect sense in terms of maintainability and independence to design and work up an alternative to characteristics such as chat or videos individually, rather than to platforms. Text chat? IRC / XMPP. Video calls? Jitsi. Picture gallery? phpgallery. Documentation? Wikis. Issue tracker? Forgejo / Chiselapp. ICE? Get Kirk’d.

So for people who create solutions for their own scale and usually without a profit or a means to operationally maintain the project, they are at a severe disadvantage that people won’t put up the effort to even learn there is an alternative. I’m guessing partly it’s because YT, TikTok and ChatGPT have turned people’s attention span to brainrot to such a degree they can’t follow a simple instruction pamphlet with pictures.

Slopya Nadella

More like Microslopya Nadella amirite? :p

Instructions unclear, I now support the Frente Patriótico Eduardo Artés.

I understood it as enabling exit in addition to /exit. It’s honestly a reasonable request unless “exit” is already an internal keyword. I assume the presence of “/exit” in the text also somehow affects an effect on the Microslop bot misbehaving.

Yeah it’s like the Microslop AI is so committed to the importance of smelling its own farts.

What is capitalism if not recursion? Spending more and more resources on falling into a bottomless pit.

Thanks for the notice! Did not know Microslop does that on the mobile render.

It would be better if they wouldn’t even be platformed at all. We don’t need no federation with Nazis.

So you want a Nazi bar. Ok.

1. Congratulations, now your work computer has access to the password (you are not as guillible to think work computer is not recording everything for the stakeholders, are you?)

Another one: The UX on browsers for managing password is far more developed, and the services you selfhost are accessed via a web browser.

Or better yet, don’t die. Better the oligarchs die for you, than the other way around. Get movin’1

That’s good to hear! We don’t need that kind of aß-attitude around, tbh. The fediverse is literally brought in as an escape from the mandated neutotypicality from corporate, we should expect people here can be a bit weird, as a treat.

Doesn’t Lemmy have any sort of profile cross-identification like Mastodon has?

Last I checked people who mention Lemmy still get shadowbanned on Reddit? if so, mentioning thigs doesn’t help.
