You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
Thank you for this great tool!
Is there a way I could use this to find a Lemmy instance that let’s me interact with desired instances? For example:
- I want to participate in Instance A, B, and C.
- A has defederated from B and C
- can I generate a list of instances that let’s me interact with A, B, and C? Then I’ll move my account there.
Thank you!
If you’re talking news media, much of their worst behavior is rooted in the ad-driven business model. Subscriptions would actually help make things better. Not sure if there’s a way to leverage the fediverse for a subscription play, though
Could KDE Connect work? I use that on my Android phone to control my Linux HTPC, but maybe it could work with Chromecast?
Thank you. As someone who is very interested in Linux, and someone who has proselytized my tech choices in the past (“Everyone should use Signal”), one of my big fears about switching to Linux is that I’ll never shut up about it, and I’ll bore my friends.
Thank you for showing me that there is another way
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, because you’re making a ton of sense. It’s not about Tim Pool, who is a dumb incel POS. It’s about the HUGE dangers of giving a company unilateral power to ban someone based solely on speech.
What if Bandcamp’s new owners are more like Facebook? They could ban work that promotes women’s rights and abortion access, which is exactly what Facebook has done.
What if Bandcamp’s new owners (or the owners after them) are more like Twitter? They could ban antifascist activists or journalists.
It truly doesn’t matter how you feel about one person. It matters how you feel about principles.
I didn’t read Solrize’s comment as saying “There shouldn’t be paywalls,” just asking the very legitimate question as to how they will interact with federation.
Interestingly, 404 just solved something kinda related: they developed a way for subscribers to get a custom RSS feed address, so they can access paywalled articles directly in their RSS reader. TMK, they are the first publication to do this. I imagine they would do something similar for federation. (I believe that if any of the custom RSS feeds show huge traffic numbers, 404 shuts it down, but I’m not sure)
