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.

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 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?

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.

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.

Thanks, added it to the title.

Good one, i’ve been thinking about it but feddit.ch does as of right now not block or deferate any other instances. To block Meta or not, can and should be in the hands of the user itself. Every user can create their personal blocklist of instances and users as they like.

To really defederate or block an other instance should first of all be a decision of us all.

Edit: Typo

Or am I?

Good question, i see the same.

In Zurich on the weekend the 9 o’clock pass is valid all day (oposed to weekdays from 9 o’clock)

Yes i saw it and replied to you. You have a notification button on the top right, there you should find messages and post/comment notifications.

Hi, thanks for asking and you’re welcome, happy you enjoy it!

Right now, i love to see people contribute, share and comment with each other. This confirms to me, that people are having fun and enjoying being here.

For anyone interested on helping out moderating and maintaining the site, DM me and i can see what i can do.

For anyone that is interested in contributing some money for the cause, i’m in the process of setting up various donation sites and will update you as soon as they’re ready.

Müesti eigentli, sust bitte hösch per A-Post igschriebe zuestelle lah. S gseht so us als hägi de lemmy es problem mit dem, probiers doch numal ufezlade.

Saaali - es wunderet mich schochli über die viele Bünzlis da, aber wenns scho mal da sind machemer doch öpis.

Es git en pfoschte, wo mer au chan frage rund um lemmy und s fediverse stelle, da ischer. Ich versuch dir trotzdem relativ churz und knapp dazu e antwort z geh:

Feddit isch kei Technologie oder so, sonder eigentlich sochli “s Fediversium (Reddit)”. Also so hans ich verstande.

feddit.ch wird mit de Software “Lemmy” betriebe und isch Teil vom Fediversum, es dezentrals Netzwerk, wo alli Communities, Pfoschte und Kommentär unterand unstuscht und verfüegbar macht. S Fediversum bestaht uns ganz viel verschiedene, unabhängige Instanze wo Programm wie da s Lemmy unterenand via “ActivityPub” Nachrichte ustusched. D Idee wär, das es nöd nur eis grosses Medium wie z.B. Reddit git, wo alles chan kontrolliere - sondern viel chlini, wo eigeti entscheidge träffet.

Ich hoffe das hilft chli.
