  • Question on federation

  • Lemmy fully managed hosting

    Jump

  • I think this kind of handwringing shows a fundamental lack of understanding of how the internet works.

    Everything you've ever pushed your eyeballs against on the internet was hosted somewhere. These days its pretty much all in the cloud.

    All this team did was write a wrapper to automate the instance creation, which I just happily paid for, because even though I could have figured it out, it wasnt work several hours of my time to do so. And if I did, I still was going to use the same cloud providers this team is routing through.

    I just paid to host an instance to do my part to support the fediverse. If you are from the elest team jbenguira hit me up or maybe I'll hit your lemmy to get some help. Having some issues getting my domain to work and want to make sure I'm doing it right.

  • I think people need to touch grass if the only reason they can think of to make things is because it might become profitable. Mindvirus right there.

  • A yes. Le,,y.

  • Lemmy, what do you call users of Lemmy?

  • Some old (wrong) thing about lemmings running off a cliff.

    Turns out the nature photographers drove the lemmings off a cliff.

  • for the Reddit refugees, do you also feel a bit heartbroken?

    Jump

  • I joined Reddit during the digg exodus. Before digg I was into fark and before fark, something awful.

    It's good that things die. it's where new mediums come from. It also keeps the power with the user. It's an important part of the internet life cycle.

  • Twitter has lost 66% of its value since Elon Musk bought it

    Jump

  • Such a weird concept to think of when it comes to something like Twitter.

    I don't think twitters value was ever reflected in a share price. It's value was always to move and away opinions, which is far more difficult to put a value on. I know there is plenty of whining happening on Twitter, but as far as I can tell, there hasn't been a truly mass exodus. As long as users are using the platform it's value remains unchanged.

    The saudis didn't buy it because they think Elon is reapply smart. they bought it because in some way they think it gives them the ability to leverage or move public opinion. As long as we give it out eyes, it stays valuable.

  • This feels like a breath of fresh air

  • Its a good thing. Forums dying and the community moving on is a good thing. Things don't need to last forever for them to be good, now. I think of it like a cleansing event; like a forest fire or flood.

  • Something Awful. was a website with a front page that had memes and the ability to comment on them. I think it ended up going in a bad way. I don't think I've been there since the 90s.

    And before Fark there were the craigslist forums.

  • IT feels like the early days of reddit.

    Or before that the early days of digg.

    Or before that the early days of fark.

    Or before that the early days of sa.

    And so it goes...
