I think you’re greatly underestimating how many non large corporations just host their shit in US-East 1.

I’m sorry but “project documentation should not be discussed in a GitHub issue or pr” is what you’re going with?? Where the fuck else would you discuss it?

They didn’t make a “report”, I think the word you’re looking for is “issue”. What they did was open a “pull request” that got rejected. So more of a “hey I made a small change to make everything more inclusive that will not affect you in any way” and the dev said “please don’t be political here”.

The person suggesting the change wasn’t being political but the dev was by rejecting the change

That’s not how domains work.

That’s where I’m at. They left the fediverse when they took the approach of aggressive defederation with everyone else. Them fully leaving is insignificant now

That’s almost exactly what I’m looking for! Do you use their mobile apps to listen to podcasts? I didn’t see anywhere in their docs about exposing RSS feeds for podcasts to allow usage of existing podcasts apps.

Might just make my own to achieve that, I essentially just want a man in the middle archive of all the podcasts I am subscribed to so I can continue to use my existing podcast clients

I hope your learning comes swiftly

I wonder how many of those are active users vs spam / bots

They defederated with multiple large lemmy instances (lemmy.world and another I don’t remember). They also did this in an asymmetric way making themselves an island whose content gets sent out into the fediverse but who doesn’t listen to updates for the content that gets sent out.

If I comment on a beehaw post as a lemmy.world user, my comment will only live on lemmy.world and not the rest of the fediverse because of what beehaw did

Same, been using it for years with no issues at all

I’ve been using this docker container to manage the VPN connection and transmission and it’s been fantastic https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn
