Maybe, or just extending the suffering for a couple of months. Hope it gets better!

But everything works in mice.

Well, killing 99% of cancer cells is quite useless, the 1% left will now thrive and if they survived because they were different (and not just luckily escaping the treatment) you now have 100% of cancer cells you can’t treat anymore.

Better case, the 1% “lucky” cancer cells just re-invade.

The problem is that they are thousands times bigger than us. All our voices will be drowned out, in what we all know, is an ad-driven post contest.

We can whine and cry but their predatory algorithms will just chew on our content and spit it back in, filled with ads, misinformation et al.

That’s why we dont want to federate with threads/facebook.

I’m around 100 percent with you.

Like we’re more than a million users, let it grow organically, not in some Reddit meme-crap way (or fusioning with fucking Facebook, guess how well that will go yeah).

But I have a question, I have blocked threads on my instance, I mean if there are no shenanigans (there will be ofc) are my instances safe? How does it work say if a user from my instance goes to lemmy.world? Isn’t it quite important that all servers block them off?

Cheers and fuck meta Facebook & threads

Are they just more popular, or do they sell more cars?

I hate language like “the economy is mourning” or stuff like the headline.

Yeah, it’s just lacking the more global “democracy”, so it’ll attract all those power hungry grifters. Social democracy is not that bad.

I got som weird behaviour, like nothing worked very well, with 0.19.0 so I updated to 0.19.1 and after quite a while (small instance, beefy PC) it starts to work again, it seems.

Except I am now a moderator everywhere. Maybe it doesn’t work, I won’t try, except asked, so can someone make a post that I can sticky or delete just to see what’s happening?

Cheers!

It does get the message through though because it’s just about feelings not about some actual danger.

Thanks!

Interesting, how would you configure that? I mean if it’s easy, I could authorize, upload and remove the authorisation.

Edit: would it be so easy as adding the file extensions and ‘up’ the upload limit?

Okaay yeah that seems completely obvious when you think about it. I was a tee worried you’d have to like block everything everything :-)

If I don’t go the whole peertube way, I probably just link the videos. Good advice, thanks!

Thanks, I could start out just using someone’s peertube, but where is the fun and tinkering in that :-)

I will keep it in mind for a fallback solution though.

Oh man, I checked out Peertube and it’s amazing! Obviously overkill for my needs, but it seems like a really good platform (and it’s from France, yay!).

Only worry I have, will my instance “mirror” other I stances? I’m confident sharing videos because I know they won’t be looked at very much, but with a sort of decentralized cache system it could be costly (in bandwidth).

Well, my point was that even is he pays hosting fees (for example) the big job is managing it all, which we (mostly? all?) do for free. If a company wants to ear money hosting Lemmy, it’s gonna be either some big thing (host your own Lemmy for 5€/m) or one big instance like world, but it would cost a lot having paid people running it.

Guess my point was that he can pay a bit per month, but it won’t guarantee anything at all. He’s probably better off joining a medium-big free instance in the short medium and long run.

Now, this is just what I think :-) !

That would be tough lol 😆

I mean one day maybe but it’ll be like paying for Linux, which exists, but you have to work for it and propose an important benefit.

There is also just using one of a thousand free instances.

If you think a meager subscription from your part could pay for about anything (dev wise), I think you are wrong.
