Sorry, English is not my first language, bit I thought the post is somewhat clear?

I didn’t forget a word, maybe a comma - in the given context, the meaning is “Would you keep your opinion for yourself if it’s something you care about?” as the post I replied to suggested exactly that.

Would you if it’s something you care about and want to be vocal about? I’d rather know that she’s full of shit and now out of the whole thing than supporting someone who spews against trans people on a secret identity.

Interesting writeup, thanks! I thought maybe dropping connections with those user agents would be the best but idk. My sites have not been targeted yet fortunately.

If an instance decides to not federate with another one they don’t see each other anymore. You can’t subscribe to their communities and vice versa, you don’t see their users posts in third instance communities. From your perspective it stops existing.

It’s sometimes necessary e.g. if an instance doesn’t do moderation by itself and hoards of trolls are coming from one instance spamming in many communities so you don’t have to ban each of their trolls. It can also be a tool if moderation goals differ too strongly from each other, and some instances have decided to defederate from lemmy.ml and more vocal tankie instances like lemmygrad and hexbear.

Because they made this thing and Fediverse is per se open. If you question whether they belong, I wonder why you are posting on .ml?

You didn’t post which community you posted that into so it’s a but hard to evaluate how legitimate the removal is.

Don’t worry, I didn’t :)

Mastodon where you can’t use the letter “e”: https://www.vice.com/en/article/its-like-tweeting-but-you-cant-use-the-letter-e/ ( oulipo.social )

Oh wow, I didn’t notice the date! Apparently the edit put it up in my feed - probably because this instance wasn’t there when the post was created.

It’s there, some apps and show the link very prominent if there’s some text as well. Do you see the preview?

Yes, but that’s a supported way to install Proxmox.

You have some options that aren’t in the installer e.g. full disk encryption

Your CPU should be perfectly capable of that. I ran Proxmox with some VMs and containers on an i5-2400 with 16GB RAM just fine.

You could run on bare Debian as well but virtualization will give you more flexibility. If you get a Zigbee Dongle or the like, you can pass it through to the VM Home Assistant is running in.

I don’t know MergeFS but usually the recommendation is ZFS.

Cool thread idea! TOR has already been mentioned, a relay seems to be save to run in most of the world.

This thread recently popped up and had some other nice ideas: https://lemmy.ca/post/40649656

Regardless of how you host Nextcloud, what you described is one thing I really like about Nextcloud: the major part of it being synced to several devices. As long as you have a computer with the desktop client that’s on every once in a while, your stuff is saved across different devices.

I’ve had a similar thing happen once btw, deleted the wrong server. It was “just” monitoring data, but I had spent a lot of effort building it properly. I eventually started over it, but knowing the whole thing is gone feels really bad.

Does it? I think it logs you out and after logging in again, you need to provide your encryption key/verify with other device again in order to access the history. Or wdym with breaking?

Ah! I don’t know what exactly these mean, would be interesting to see what Element says what those mean. I don’t think Element actually adds these to your messages etc but I don’t know the protocol enough.

Does IRC have performant voicechat?

I think they have different use cases. OL may have a more consistent library, but Bookwyrm has the (social) features im looking for in a book app.

Personally I add books to OL and then import to BW.

Exactly - but since they seem to open the beta to their customers already I’d assume there won’t be that many breaking changes, but I wouldn’t rely on it already. Considering using it on a testdomain

Does it? On Android, it never asked me to grant location permission unless I try to share my location to another user. Similar with contacts and calendar, it’s working perfectly fine without them. Where exactly does it link those identifiers and with what?
