Have we tried turning the universe off and on again?
Just getting started but yeah, I have basically no technology background. Mostly I’m too stubborn to know when to quit something so here I am lol.
Please fediblock.
There are 200 mil. Threads users, and 10 mil. in the fediverse. Meta has been unable to meet basic federation assurances, is unable to guarantee moderation, is unable to detect and remove bots reliably, unable to guarantee basic user protections, unable to reliably detect and remove actions like doxxing, harassment, stalking, ban evasion, brigading, etc. etc.
Federating with threads means giving up on these basic protections for users and being overrun with threads users. When there is ONE instance that serves 95% of the users, federation has failed. What happens when Meta engineers start submitting pull requests to the AP protocol? What happens when they fork it to add their own “features?”
Federating with Threads is bad for the present and the future of the fediverse. We need to see more government organizations, universities, and journalists joining and spinning up instances. I want to see @POTUS@whitehouse.gov, @bucky@wisc.edu, and @AndersonCooper@cbsnews.com
Yelp is a garbage platform that abuses small businesses and manipulates reviews.
David and Goliath it ain’t.
AI generating this right now!
Edit: I should not have done that.
It’s Mastodon. I use Moshidon
What is grade?
Speed as I understand it is the physical speed the drive spins, and is directly proportional (?) to the read/write speed.
How does a beginner know which is which? What should I look for, and how do I know if it’s a good investment or overkill for a home setup?
Thanks, I hadn’t considered that!
Yes, an important point, as I mentioned! However, the question was if there is a reason to use mbin if you are primarily interacting with Lemmy.
My question was if there is any drawback to it. From what I’ve seen (at a purely superficial level) mbin is perfectly capable of taking full advantage of what Lemmy has to offer.
Thanks, I found it here.
Some if them are hosted directly on instances like a.lemmy.world or photon.lemmy.world. Others are hosted separately, but allow you to login from most any server, like tesseract.dubvee.org,
What is Next? I hadn’t heard of it before.
Edit: sorry, it’s linked on the page you shared. Not sure how I missed this one!
At risk of answering a question with a question… Is there a drawback to using mbin? Are there certain ways that it makes interacting with Lemmy awkward or difficult, or is it essentially just another interface? There are lots of frontends for the threadiverse - Lemmy UI is just one.
I know that mbin has additional features on the backend, but is there something you are missing out on?
I guess even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Is this the most downvoted post on Lemmy?
That seems to be the case.
