This isn’t new. I’ve been running my personal instance since last year using it.

Big deal, just self host in a VPS if you’re willing to pay $$$.
Don’t make the mistake though of self hosting (Dendrite) as it will just choke, in my case it was a single user instance subscribed to only a handful of channels but apparently that was too much for my server to load messages in any manner that would be considered quick.
I’ve self hosted several services at once on there but apparently Matrix is just too heavy too handle compared to other things.
Who in their right mind at Netflix thought that putting out games would be a viable source of revenue.
Even if your security oriented it seems many frown upon any self hosting whatsoever.
I got a small team in school to all adopt my self hosted Matrix as a chat solution for a project we were working on throughout the year. It was great. Everyone jumped back to Discord after we graduated though.
Yes. What they specifically did though was extend the protocol so that anyone who wasn’t using their version of XMPP via Google Talk would be incompatible or seem “broken” when it really wasn’t. It’s just that they were using non-standard features, both incentivizing people to just switch to Google Talk and for development on the core protocol to slow down.
I bet money Threads is going to do the same thing. They’ll introduce Threads only features that don’t work with all the standard Activitypub implementations, causing frustration with Thread users and putting pressure on people to just jump ship to Threads from standard Activitypub implementations.
Yes, I’m sure many idots believe in this pyramid
Of course you don’t. I’m sure 95% of people don’t. Most people don’t bother taking a stand on things unless it affects something more substantial like their wallets.
Pretty sure it just simply means content won’t cross over in either direction.
Because f*ck Meta? Isn’t that enough?
I’m running a small Gotosocial based instance and will be defederating simply because I’m afraid of the bandwidth and general load when like there is 1+ billion new users federating via Threads.
I suspect it’s partially to do with the Activitypub protocol itself, at least how it’s implemented by Mastodon, which most other software treat as the de-facto standard. Someone brought this up to Eugen on Mastodon where the guy was showing the different amount of boosts and what not. I remember it being different on every server the guy showed screenshots from, on the same post.
Wish I could find the thread, but Eugen basically said it’s not a big concern to him and didn’t sound like it would be fixed.
I think they should.
Hopefully your home instance has rules that facilitate having a safe space online regardless of where you are posting to.
Otherwise if you are doing something like promoting “othering” or denying the Holocaust or the moon landing, etc, you may end up getting your instance banned from federating with servers where the mods don’t like what you’re posting.
This should get ranked up now as now it’s just hilarious.
It says it uses ActivityPub, so yes, interoperable. Though Mastodon has its own quirks and doesn’t line up neatly with the protocol.
At what baseline should contributors be writing articles or edits? Like 10th grade reading level?
I always hear people appreciate brevity and clarity, but that seems a pretty tough task for certain subjects like the aforementioned math ones.
Thanks for the recommendation. I haven’t played Pokemon in over a decade, and from what I’ve read here that probably will not change. However, Monster Sanctuary may be worth checking out.
The show itself may be fine, but the trailer is almost pure cringe.
I heard someone say that the messages on Matrix are basically replicated on every server that is federated with another. I don’t know if this is true, but that’s a crazy amount of network traffic if so. I’ve also heard anecdotally that the protocol itself is pretty complicated.
Setting up an app in docker is the easiest option, even more than just simply installing the binary?
