Also looking at the projects he has created, saying that he has not delivered anything seems a bit… Imprecise.

Every project I know of on the Fediverse is a work in progress, and it’s always a question of prioritization. But Dansup has created, and continues to create, some amazing stuff. Even if he sometimes gets a bit ahead of himself in advertising stuff.

It, uhm, predicts tokens?

If calling it a word predictor is oversimplifying, I mean.

Steal a little, and they put you in jail. Steal a lot, and they make you king.

My bet would be tax evasion and money laundering. ;)

It’s hard to wrap one’s head around just how freaking rich the mega wealthy are. The 1% is not even the enemy at this point, they are closer to most of us than they are to the billionaire class.

I think it must be seen not in light of the monetary blow, but in light of the fact that the EU is pushing hard for these actors to change directions and to end some of their abusive behaviour.

Traffic fines are made to bankrupt drivers or to finance the state, but to encourage people to drive safely.

How do you do, fellow humans 🤖🛹

Anyone who could make this news break would be in a position to steal unfathomable amounts of money in broad daylight, and get away with it.

I think we should always suspect bad actors in cases like this, and investigate thoroughly. It’s too easy of a scam with too much money to be made.

Maybe there is nobody to blame. But assuming so just seems incredibly naive to me considering the amount of bad actors and the ease of pulling a stunt like this.

Yeah. Money is not lost in finance markets, it is redistributed. Reading any of this as random and/or unintentional is beyond naive.

I have no doubt we will!

While we still doesn’t have all kinds of active niche communities over here, it is incredible how much the community has grown since I first came here. And that’s not really all that long ago.

Thanks for joining us! :)

Yeah, it’s a little ironic to say the least. I suspect the tech giants are more worried about titties than they are of literal fascism.

Ah, sorry, it’s in the context of what Elena Rossini writes about the limitations of the mobile app.

As PeerTube draws content from independent servers, it’s hard for them to comply with the content policies of Google and Apple. The PeerTube app you can find in the App Store or Google Play Store therefore only contains content from a very short list of whitelisted PeerTube instances, where Apple or Google have accepted content from these instances to be presented in their app ecosystems.

F-Droid doesn’t have such limitations, and as a result the stuff you’ll find in the F-Droid app is the same as you’ll find in https://sepiasearch.org/ .

It’s worth stressing that you can get around Google’s totalitarian restrictions by installing PeerTube from F-droid.

If you’re on Android, you should probably consider using F-droid whenever possible anyway. Personally I like Droid-ify, which is an F-droid client with a nice interface.

If you’re on iPhone, you’re out of luck. The EU might eventually come to the rescue of European users. American iPhone users will probably not be surprised to learn that they are shit out of luck.

Thanks! Maybe I’m just dumb in my own unique way, but I find the practical implications of AT proto hard to wrap my head around. :)

Right. I guess that’s similar with bridged users - you see them on bsky.app, even though they are actually located elsewhere.

What I struggle with is seeing the decentralization in practice, when the only place I can ever see AT proto in action is when Bluesky users are bridged to the fediverse. Bluesky has a shitload of users and there are a bunch of people jumping on the technology - why is there not so much as an understandable proof of concept out there?

On ActivityPub it’s so easy to understand. “See this post? Well, here’s the same post on some other domain, hosted by other people”.

I don’t understand how Bluesky can be this difficult to understand, yet apparently fulfil such a fundamental need.

Cool.

It’s funny how one of the main criticisms of ActivityPub is that it’s too difficult to implement, yet after all this attention the best the ATmosphere has managed to come up with is a toilet flushing repository. But I see the value of the portable identity. I think.

Okay, that’s more interesting! Thanks!

Oh damn, you’re right!

But sometimes on the fediverse there’s a “copy link to post/comment on original instance”, which I sometimes find to be useful. But this is already pretty great!

That’s true - it would be useful to have a “copy direct link” option in the menu bar for each comment. @[email protected]

I just put together my first feed today, collecting more than 60 US protest communities into one feed: https://piefed.social/f/50501

In the drop-down menus on top I can choose between either the communities I’m subscribed to, or the feeds I subscribe to. I can subscribe to public feeds compiled by other users, including users on other PieFed instances. I can also make a private feed if I don’t feel like sharing it.

It’s pretty great. Would absolutely recommend.

There are two main instances:
https://piefed.social/ and https://feddit.online/
There’s no mobile app/APK support at the moment, but it’s coming soon.
