  • Why did Linus Torvalds then disassociated

    Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

    You are failing at this most basic test of logic, this is why I don't want to get dragged down into a pointless discussion with you. Enjoy the block, and have a good rest of the weekend.

  • installing lemmy means supporting an authoritarian

    Non sequitur. The software is free to use, free to redistribute and does not come with any obligation to support the ideologies of the developers. If that was the case, everyone using Linux desktops should be associated with Richard Stallman (author of the GNU project), which is on record defending Epstein by arguing that minors can consent to sexual relationships in exchange with money.

  • dessalines power tripped his own software.

    AFAIK, he does not have any power over the other instances and communities that are not hosted over on lemmy.ml?

    Uhhhh, are you aware how federated networks initialize?

    Not interested in being baited into a pointless discussion today, sorry.

  • This was one of my stretch goals for https://fediverser.io/, and I would definitely be interested in helping with this. Basically, the end goal would be to create ActivityPub actors that are based on the DID to completely decouple their identity from the ActivityPub server that is serving their inbox and outbox.

  • Any community that talks about moderation issues. Preferably one that is closer to the users of lemmy.ml.

    This is not the place for this. It achieves nothing and gives newcomers the impression that this type of petty drama is an integral part of the Fediverse.

  • Please find a better place to air out this dirty laundry.

  • None of that pays the bills of the developers.

  • In the most practical cases, yes. But in theory, there is nothing about the protocol that says that message addressing implies message visibility, or even access control.

    Also, be careful of taking your assumptions and treating them as universal truths. One day somebody could build an IRC-like system on ActivityPub and decides to treat a "ChatMessage" object as public objects which may or may not be addressed at a single participant. There would be no "bug" if the server picks up the object, relays to others, or even indexes it and makes it searchable.

  • I wasn't talking about the specifics of Lemmy, but ActivityPub in general. You can not guarantee that just because a message has been addressed to a single actor that only that actor will see it.

  • Yes, but if you want a real one-to-one, private chat system use Matrix or XMPP. Treat anything you write on Lemmy as public information.

  • The fact that a message is addressed to a single person does not mean that it's only sent to that person. In theory, anyone following you will receive a notification about the message.

  • This is how federation was sold to me

    But did you pay anything for it?

  • "it works when everyone behaves well" is not the same as being protected.

    It doesn't even take a malicious actor: I am working on a local-first browser extension that is very aggressive about caching content in the database. There is no "please delete this data" for an extension. You of all people should not be making claims about privacy that you know you can not guarantee.

  • Asking to delete data that you published on the public internet is the same as asking for water to be not wet.

    Don't fall for the illusion of privacy that the proprietary networks give you: there are people that copy data from reddit just for the fun of it. Always assume that anything you publish online is publicly available.

  • they seem to want this service to stay free and open

    TANSTAAFL.

    The admin might think they are being this generosity is good for the users, but at the end of the day all it just gets them burned out and gives people who signed up the impression that all matrix servers are slow. Meanwhile, acess to my matrix server is not free, ($29/year, less than $2.50/month) but by charning just a little bit I can make sure that it grows at a rate that I can manage and doesn't make my infrastructure implode.

  • Cara, eu já estou com com uns 70% da API do Lemmy implementada, e passei esse fim de semana todo trabalhando numa entensão pro browser que "puxa" o grafo social localmente e mostra os dados, como se fosse um browser. Quero ver se consigo fazer posts via C2S antes de ir dormir. :)

    Tudo isso pra dizer: sim, eu tenho muito pitaco pra dar nessa história...

  • He likes the process of working on greenfield ideas and gets bored once he ships the MVP, which is fine. What is not fine is that he makes a ton of hype around new projects, but after he gets tired of playing with it, he refuses to let go. It sucks the air out of the community for very little benefit.

    I was hoping that the PixelFed kickstarter would force him to finally focus on the damn thing, but it seems he simply does not have the drive or interest to work at a steady pace in one single product.
