  • the opposite is the case: if the Dollar drops significantly, it makes exports more desirable and that creates jobs in the US.

  • The thing is that the Dollar needs to lose credibility to weaken Trump. He can just print arbitrary amounts of money; this needs to end. Fiat currency needs to end. There should be sth like a gold standard again.

  • too often people behave like that.

  • truly chaotic neutral

  • yeah content discovery sucks unfortunately :(

    I do think there maybe should be better lists and indexes of stuff that shows you related content on the Fediverse.

  • One problem i see is how do you deal with monetized content? Should monetization be possible on the Fediverse? Because i see no meaningful way to do that. Maybe you could add a link to donations to your uploads, but there's no "paid subscription" feature AFAIK. And IMHO there shouldn't be either.

  • that's a good idea as well! might consider that.

  • I want to set up a Lemmy server too (currently still deciding between Lemmy and PieFed) to host some basic content that we create at a university group with the public. It's more like a blog than anything else, at least as envisioned. I'd also like to add some cool features to it like auto-posting (i.e. we have a bot that automatically uploads certain posts).

  • which tbh is a bad idea from the start

  • I think the reason why Matrix doesn't use AP is mostly to draw a clear line between public and private activity. Because if you use one protocol for both, the temptation is high to mix them and that leads to unclean implementations which leak messages. I think it should stay divided.

  • If i understand correctly, Discord is a chat application for private and group chats. There is Matrix chat that works reasonably well as a replacement.

    It's decentralized, open source software, and i've used and tested it for at least a year now. It works well enough. It does not use the ActivityPub protocol though.

    Mind that Matrix chat tends to private/group chats, which means they're not typically visible to everyone else. Which means it would make little sense to try to embed them into the rest of the fediverse, which is openly accessible.

  • Climate change is nothing like previous crises. How are we supposed to reverse physics to make better future happen?

  • there’s not gonna be a peer-reviewed article on comment sentiments in lemmy comments

    or is there?

  • For me it's not so much supporting the Iranian regime but seriously doubting whether any outside interference will actually help the people. Because when has it ever done so?

  • but they're a different kind of insane /hj

  • it's a pun on "left" being the opposite of "right"
