  • Fediverse is very good at censorship resistance, much better than alternatives.If internet is restricted in your country, use a VPN. If you're an admin, move your server to a different country.

    If internet is not restricted, then there is nothing to worry about.

  • Originally there was supposed to be 1 network, run by the engine council.

    Yes, but then the devs decided to not take risk. That makes sense, and I don't see why there shouldn't be another network.

    Fragmentation might negatively impact user experience, but it is not a huge problem, and it can be mitigated by implementing federation. I even suggested a possible architecture when federation was discussed in the matrix room.

    This website can be replaced with a mitra instance. It is compatible with I2P and can process Monero payments.

    Installation is not difficult but feel free to contact me if you need help.

    @monero

  • One of Mitra users made a video about subs long time ago, I can't find it now. You're right, I should make a video too (and also a website etc etc).But I need to finish nomadic identity first, as it is the main objective of the project.

    @fediverse

  • That's fine, my posts were not about any particular services. I am concerned with false statements in widely shared articles.

    @fediverse

  • the Fediverse today lacks any kind of commerce

    This is not true. I already told you about that when you published a promotional post about subclub (which didn't last), but now you're saying it again. Why?

    @fediverse

  • Boards are actors, and every message on the board is attributed to the board actor.

    I think it would be easier to make it interoperate with microblogs than with forum-like software.

  • @g2devi @XMRbutterfly @monero PoW doesn't guarantee that wealth is deserved, because computing power can be bought too. It's a bit harder to buy than tokens, but that doesn't change the big picture.

    Monero should stick to PoW, though, because it works. It didn't work for Firo, apparently, so they had to change it, but I am not aware of any 51% attacks on Monero.

    Looks reasonable overall, but I don't understand some of your assessments.

    Easy (Leverage email hosting services)

    What are those email hosting services? If hosting and maintenance are delegated to 3rd parties, that doesn't count towards decentralization.

    Top Provider User Share: Reddit ≈ 48.4%

    Why this is not 100%?

    Very Easy: One-command Docker,

    I think the easiest option is distro's default package manager -- docker is additional layer of complexity. Also some services are nearly impossible to self-host without docker, and points should be subtracted if that is the case.

  • @rafaelxmr @monero This app connects to 30 clearnet domains and all images are stored on nostr.build.

  • @lionroe Sounds complicated, and the biggest flaw of OpenBazaar still remains: the lack of web client. We discuss this article because it is available on the web. Lemmy and other Fediverse apps are successful because they have web clients.

    Why not start with existing federated software like flohmarkt? Make it federate over Tor (maybe it already does). That would solve the hardest problem, discovery. Other features can be added later.

    Vendors will host everything themselves, so there is no need for any incentive model.

    @monero

  • @Fitik @Teknevra Tipping will also be supported in the future (in addition to subscriptions).

    And people on other platforms may put addresses in profile fields (Lemmy doesn't have them yet?). Mitra displays a donation icon when address is detected (the name of the field should be like $BTC).

    @fediverse

  • @5dh @fediverse Financial incentive is not the only possible cause. If project leaders stop listening to their users for some other reason, you'll get the same result.And there is another, more subtle problem: protocol bloat. Fediverse services are getting more and more complicated, and the cost of creating a new platform is constantly increasing. If this problem is not addressed, at some point Fediverse will start looking like a web browser market, where new players can't compete due to an immense implementation complexity.
