  • Should we revisit the instance picker to have an easier default choice?

  • Modern Web has spoiled the average user. You never have to choose a server.

    Need an account? Link your gmail/meta/whatever.

    If there is a little bit of friction, the average user won't use it because corpos made sure that everything is a one click setup. And Lemmy is different in that regard, a bit old school.

  • This is mental that we sell arable land to build expensive, low quality condos or big buildings like a data center.

  • Ah, customer service

    Jump

  • The typical customer service is 45 mins ++ of waiting on the line, to be greeted by an agent with a heavy Indian accent that will go through the script before having any chances to have a shot at maybe fixing your issue.

  • Workers Say AI Is Useless, While Oblivious Bosses Insist It's a Productivity Miracle

  • It's a productivity miracle for manager because they can bullshit their job faster and easier.

  • Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App

  • It's a holdover from retail where had to physically hold your product and had limited space.

    Now, the shareholders demand even more money and Apple has complete control on the OS and they are signaling that you can't do shit and they will take whatever they want.

    They can fight anyone in courts, and as long as the laws have no teeth, they will get away with it.

  • I guess the rich friends need more money. Time to manipulate the market again.

  • Bye, X: Europeans are launching their own social media platform, W

  • No worries, no offense taken.

    Hopefully people will see discussions like ours and learn a little something about how things work.

    In 2011, Elon Musk was asked about chinese company BYD. He started laughing. In 2025, BYD sold more electric cars worldwide than Tesla

  • I understand that. Just like Lemmy where all the instances that are federated have a copy of the posts and comments you make.

    However, you have the option to create your own instance and federate or not with any community you want.

    If there is one mega instance, deferating from it effectively kills the social media. Thus my train of thoughts.

  • More and more people are moving away from tech giants because of their shitty behaviour. So I think it is important to note how the data is used and stored, thus my follow-up question.

    Thanks for the detailed response.

  • Thanks for taking the time to explain.

    Follow-up question : doesn't ATProto run into the same issue as Bluesky for example, where even though the protocol allows for decentralization, the vast majority of users are on the same servers, thus negating the pros of decentralization?

    I feel like this would be the case here where one server will contain all the modules.

  • For non-believers in that format of social media, is ATProto good or bad?

  • It's gambling all the way down, thinking they will be the ones that will win big and everyone else fail.

  • What do you recommend to find a private tracker? A while back, I tried to find one, but none of them were available for new users. Granted that I haven't used torrents in a while.

  • Canada's deal with China signals it is serious about shift from US

  • We can have both a local manufacturing sector and imports.

    The last few years have shown us that we need to produce stuff here because the supply chain can explode and were caught with our pants down.

  • It is sarcasm.

    Women were treated as children and men had all the power in a relationship. So yeah, divorce rates were lower because lots of women were trapped.
