Some of the best stuff in the world looks like it’s 20 years past a prime that isn’t, because they’re truly good eternal.
Well, what’s stopping someone else from adopting TomHanks@Lemm.ee?
There’s over 1400 people solely in the US named Tom Hanks. Tom Hanks The Celebrity does not get patent rights or trademarks or copyrights on the name.
Wanna know which is the Tom Hanks The Celebrity? Check if their profile is authenticated against their personal website, à-la-Mastodon.
A toot is literally the sound of a birb. It’s got more comfy than “tweet” does.
Yeah definitively sounds like even more support for Rust and/or Python in this sense.
Languages
C.
Frameworks
C.
That said, Python and Rust are great for setting up “starting up” / “small task” apps and growing up from there.
Sounds like a good idea in theory, but in practice would kill the entire usefulness of the subscribed view if people have to subscribe to entire magazines / communities / whatever only to vote on one particular stuff in them that is relevant to them.
Oh, and for the record, linux is ALSO a confusing hot mess for the average person. But until linux developers accept this,
I’ve heard the same kind of stuff about lots… lots of things that “will never catch on”. Every one of those doomsayers were wrong. Some of them unfortunately, but still, they were all wrong.
God I wish someone went and finally fixed that. It’s incredible that of all the FOSS and community stuff you can find on the internet, lemmy is the big one that can’t even remotely be browsed via w3m / elinks / anything-without-Javascript.
If this later returns as ed.ch
(more streamlined and lightweight, minimal featureset, perhaps not even the ability to store remote files so as to avoid the CSAM issues, etc) it’ll be The Day.
All that is needed is a way to find what you want and a solid system of building trusted profiles with ratings and such.
Wouldn’t the second part require a trusted means to verify that a given profile actually sold you the promised thing, as well as some trusted means (two-party signing, maybe) to announce that a payment actually took place?
XMPP is the way.

It’s certainly and obviously not, but:
Does Youtube have a monopoly and network effect? Sure, absolutely, and someone’s gotta correct that. But it’s not a complete monopoly in the sense of “if you don’t eat you die”. If the main supermarket in the area doesn’t like me because “boobs” or something, I can still go to a minimarket.
…Look, you really get tiresome. I’d ask if you are fine but honestly you are not my problem. If you need serotonin or something, get you seen; don’t try to drain mine.
What I’m hearing here is
I mean , not with that attitude certainly. And dog that doesn’t bark doesn’t eat.
But if you want to be self-defeatist, you do you. I’d thought half the point you were even here, in a platform that is not GAFAM, was that you weren’t.
and platforms who leverage network effect need to be held to different standards
Then do so. Come on. It’s 2024.
Until something is seriously done, being able to at least go elsewhere has to be and is the rational option that is left.
If Lemmy were to integrate with Matrix the storage costs would explode exponentially, the two systems are notoriously heavy! (Lemmy is consistently the only service that fills more than 1 GB of storage in my browser and refuses to clean up).
XMPP is the true inheritor of IRC when it comes to standard, federated, self-hostable chat / messaging.
Unless they want it to be possible that people see their content.
That’s what the airwaves are for.
But no, really, Youtube is neither that open nor that essential that the people not there are Somehow Invisible on the Internet. And even if that was somehow the case, you actually don’t need to upload video, you can just use a normal youtube account to comment and link your content wherever relevant “conversations” lead there.
This is the most stupidest idea (yes, double superlative, that’s how bad it is) I’ve heard posted on the Fediverse since… well, the last time I heard the most stupidest idea, and that was also here on the Fediverse. So, congratulations on that front.
There’s like 123456 bad things with this idea, starting with the obvious of blockchain and cryptocurrency, and continuing with the fact that “quality of instances” is equated to “consumption of content”. Popularity and connectivity are not indicators of quality.
