I think i chime in for some comment. You got it right, i believe this open platform should stay as open as possible. But if i see that problems arise and users from this instance are having issues because of Threads or other platforms, i have to take action. And of course, there are borders to this openness.

I’m very aware, that Meta and the other big corporations are interested in our data and want to use them for their profit. But i don’t think that defederation will stop them. They will harvest our data anyway, with just simple web crawlers.

I support anyone who wants to defederate them, but i also want an open platform for people to have a place to express themselves and communicate. And with the new instance block feature of lemmy v.0.19, people are able to hide specific instances themself, if they do not like their content.

Thank you! i corrected it anyway.

There are multiple reasons for this: Not (yet) knowing how to swim, heat strokes, heart attacks, exhaustion, medical issues and so forth.

I dont’ know doesn’t look like it. But sounds like a good idea, i’m sure you could send a request to the devs.

I already posted some info on the derailment here: feddit post

I agree, the problematic thing here is: they have it, so they gonna use it, even if it is not related to their case.

Which suggestions are you speaking of?

Great summary for this interesting topic, thank you very much.

It affects the commands in the Dockfile for the container creation. Because that process is built up on OverlayFS.

Good article. But the police did only seize their mastodon server in a “take it all” approach because of an other issue.

Last May, Mastodon server Kolektiva.social was compromised when one of the server’s admins had their home raided by the FBI for unrelated charges. All of their electronics, including a backup of the instance database, were seized.

Good point. If the main function would be implemented on all nodes and everyone would exchange information (hashes), which elements are harmful, we would maybe have a chance to skip central nodes from the equation. If the information is distributed throughout multiple maybe random nodes, but this would pose new problems - where to find that information.

I believe if users are empowered to participate in combating the problem, almost all users would. The question is, how can the nodes harvest this? What can ordinary users do to help?

I agree. Maybe the node can create some “unsafe” hashes and share them between the nodes - kind of like an antivirus creates hashes for malware. The user can always report to the admins - when there are more instances there are automatically more admins to handle the request themselves or with bots.

No, you can register for it at the end of the year, like you would for a new paper vignette.

News are almost always about sensations - they want the people to spend time on their platform and let them see some ads.

I find the conclusion interesting, quote:

Investment in one or more centralized clearinghouses for performing content scanning (as well as investment in moderation tooling) would be beneficial to the Fediverse as a whole.

This contradicts somehow the use case of a federated network, but there would also be major benefits from something like this.

Nice one, good find.

For your info: I removed your deleted comments.

Seems like, yes. He also presented a short preview what it could look like: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1682978324375543808

Bye Bye Tweeting

In Zürich, you don’t need a “Nachtzuschlag” anymore, but i’m sure, there are exceptions. General rule of thumb - their gone.

The ticket is not 24h, but until the last regular train which is about 5 am.

Still a long way to go, fair to say that say that we need to do some drastic rethinking.

Good catch with the article, thanks.
