Last commit was two weeks ago.

Haha, I don’t think those are real users. But yeah, they could have done a better job selecting a pool of stock photos.

Not exactly federated, but open source: https://github.com/Alovoa/alovoa

Why the switch?

Potential hot take: Do we even want the majority of people here?

I was a RIF user and therefore Jerboa comes naturally to me.

I’ve thought about this myself during a phase of less that then perfect health. I think a somewhat practical solution is to have all passwords and documentation on how to use them/access the services that require them in a (online) password manager (so it stays current). Then have an USB stick with encrypted login credentials and OTP backup deposited at a notary and hand out the decryption key to a few trustworthy friends and family members.
This way nobody can access your stuff and the notary can make sure to hand out the USB stick only to the one person you specified in your will. The other friends and family members are there as backup in case your “special” friend has lost the decryption key in the meantime.

The alternative to an online pw manager would be a local one that you synchronize to your friends and only the notary has the key to unlock the database, which they only hand out according to your will.

I’d love to hear about other solutions though. Maybe there’s a better option.

P.S.: There are tools to have more redundancy on USB sticks and so on, so that bit flips/degradation can be accommodated. Multiple redundant data carriers are an option as well.

Good, so you won’t have to accommodate to any changes./s

What you call an algorithm here is a recommendation engine. I don’t see why they should avoid having something like that. Ideally they would have a modular system, so you could plug in your own favorite third-party engine.

Many Lemmy instances are requiring their users to apply for an account.

In contrast to reddit, whos leadership never made any controversial decisions. /s

This comment for example, after about a week or two most of the visibility and interaction of it will drop to zero. At that point, this comment should expire and no longer exist.

That’s an incredible naive and egoistic take. Think about all the knowledge that is getting lost by applying this approach. How many times have you searched for some obscure thing and found the answer only on some five years old reddit post? That information would be lost for ever if you had your way.

That’s the wrong comment.

I doubt their box has AV1 support, so this is a non-solution.

And to use it with a similar feature set, everyone is using different extensions which also have to be supported by the clients. I know there is this one server implementation (name escapes me at the moment) and Conversations on the client side, but it’s hardly the standard and we’re not really talking about plain XMPP then anymore.

Nobody is talking about Diaspora anymore ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

Thank you, I didn’t know about the 4kxx projects.

Last time I checked the demastered movies were distributed via torrent. Are they not anymore?

completely off track

Let’s see how things evolve before declaring things like that.

Accountwalled then
