Yes as it is almost the same category as mastodon
Isn’t it enough to have a single offsite backup?
Whats the risk? My uptime is pretty good and I host from home.
Why not host at home?
But it’s not self hostable.
Not self hostable and not secure by default.
I do agree that the hard left seems to enjoy using “liberal” as an insult, knowing that what most Americans interpret as “liberal” is different than the academic definition they use. It needlessly diverts the conversation and makes them think they’re superior.
Saying “shitlib” is even worse. Basically an adhom attack, not acceptable when the other party is being civil and respectful.
On #2 and #3, I don’t think that is relevant to the original accusation. Of course they will uphold their own views. But #1 is very valid. Though I wish to see examples of it because I have not.
Do you have examples? I am not doubting, since I’ve seen loads of people saying it. But I’ve never come across it myself.
Lemmy is kinda close to forums and groups. But I do agree I prefer that format over the Reddit-like format.
I wish algorithms were opt-in, transparent, and allowed choice (whether by choosing an algorithm over another, or customizing parameters).
If this were the case, I’d have no issue with algos.
Can you give examples please?
The biggest weakness of using activityPub is it is harder to control compared to rolling out your own incompatible variant.
It’s as much or as little as you want to. If you don’t want to change anything, you can use something like debian and only maintain once every 5 years (and you could even skip that).
I personally spend a little more, by choice, because I use gentoo. But if I’m busy, I can avoid maintenance by only running routine updates every couple of weeks or so.
I know it’s not the intention, but can you use this to host copyrighted music?
Feed Algorithms aren’t inherently wrong imo. The problem with typical feed algorithms is two things:
Searchability is bad.
Growing a new community is hard. I wish people used lemmyverse more often.
Having a fully customizable feed algorithm would be a killer feature.
Maybe would be easy to fork it
By free software you mean the FSF or OSI definition. Many people won’t care, and some of us actively are against corporate leech on free software, which this license helps with.
That’s just a bandaid on capitalism’s issues. Urging people not to support the biggest actor will never work in the grand scheme of things, when said actor provides their best immediate interests.
