Good to know, thanks!

Sorry, English is not my first language, bit I thought the post is somewhat clear?

I didn’t forget a word, maybe a comma - in the given context, the meaning is “Would you keep your opinion for yourself if it’s something you care about?” as the post I replied to suggested exactly that.

Would you if it’s something you care about and want to be vocal about? I’d rather know that she’s full of shit and now out of the whole thing than supporting someone who spews against trans people on a secret identity.

If an instance decides to not federate with another one they don’t see each other anymore. You can’t subscribe to their communities and vice versa, you don’t see their users posts in third instance communities. From your perspective it stops existing.

It’s sometimes necessary e.g. if an instance doesn’t do moderation by itself and hoards of trolls are coming from one instance spamming in many communities so you don’t have to ban each of their trolls. It can also be a tool if moderation goals differ too strongly from each other, and some instances have decided to defederate from lemmy.ml and more vocal tankie instances like lemmygrad and hexbear.

Does IRC have performant voicechat?

I think they have different use cases. OL may have a more consistent library, but Bookwyrm has the (social) features im looking for in a book app.

Personally I add books to OL and then import to BW.

Does it? On Android, it never asked me to grant location permission unless I try to share my location to another user. Similar with contacts and calendar, it’s working perfectly fine without them. Where exactly does it link those identifiers and with what?

It is, but it’s not recommended for productive use yet. Quote from their newsletter March 2nd:

What about self-hosting?

Several people have asked about using ActivityPub if you’re hosting Ghost elsewhere. Some quick notes about that:

Importantly, Ghost’s ActivityPub service is already out in the wild, open source, and released under the MIT license. We build in public, and all our work is up on GitHub for anyone to download, fork, run or deploy if they want to.

What’s missing right now, mainly, is documentation. You could already self-host ActivityPub if you really wanted to, but there’s a lot you’d need to figure out to get it running properly.

So the question is less “when will it be possible” and more “when will it be easy”?

At the moment we’re moving quickly and making many breaking changes each week which aren’t backwards compatible (like switching to a new DB) – so the app isn’t stable. Even if we did document everything, if you self-hosted then it would just break constantly — so it doesn’t make much sense for us to try to document and promote self-hosting, because it won’t be a good experience for anyone.

Right now we’re prioritising developing the app and building features, deployed in a single location, so we can make progress. Once the app is stable, then we’ll start documenting (and optimizing) the process of deploying it and hosting it elsewhere.

We’re hoping to get to that work some time this summer, and we’ll share details of that here, as we go. Our first priority is just getting ActivityPub working and stable with a base feature set.

Search currently includes OpenLibrary and Inventaire, plus some more I think but I’m not sure right now.

That doesn’t mean a Browser plug-in couldn’t be useful ofc, but Bookwyrm is not limited to what it’s users manually add - even though, through federation, that’s quite a lot already.

What’s your motivation for the switch? Second time in a short while I’ve heard about people migrating to incus.

That sounds so cool! Not using any tracking/nav devices other than my phone but currently my routes just stay local without having any kind of management for them.

Google calendar? In the selfhosting community? Bold statement😄

Did that as well a while ago and generally it’s working pretty good, some services had the possibility to migrate existing accounts to authentik even. But even though it’s been pretty reliable so far I’m hesitant to migrate my more critical services behind another runtime dependency.

Playing information ping pong. We sent them some issue with a lot of information and instead of actually investigating they often dragged on the whole thing by asking for details they should have themselves, taking hours-days to respond etc before they actually did something. We often had to escalate issues via our account manager.

This was all on enterprise support while I was working for a company that paid six figures each month for infrastructure in their data center.

Only know Ionos in DE but I can’t recommend it, the support is pretty bad.

Never heard of this so far but maybe. Would be interesting to try

What would they do about it?

Does your router have webinterface where you can monitor and potentially limit network usage of devices?

I’m not too familiar with the arr stack but if it is constantly downloading videos it’s probably using full bandwidth. Maybe you can also limit in the arr settings or throttle the network interface on the laptop.

It’s not instance agnostic because the thread lives on the instance of the author. But links in this format: https://lemm.ee/post/57428587 can be put in the search field on any instance and will return the proper post.
