  • Discord Is Bringing Back Age Verification for Millions of Users

  • Check out Sable. Me and my friend were in the exact same boat, but then we found Sable.

  • Fluxer has no E2EE yet, and no Federation. But it's very easy to set up your own server.

    Jump

  • The big thing that made Discord so popular is being able to make one account and join multiple communities, often about specific subjects. To use that exact same account to freely communicate, including direct messages, with members of these communities, and have one friend list attached to your account.

    Only ways you can have this is either through centralisation or Federation. Centralisation has proven to be junk.

  • Oh, well, yeah. That explains it then. The default matrix server isn't good for anything because its bitrate is low, yet everyone makes an account there.

    So you have a limited bitrate anf thousands of people to serve. Fluxer is the same. It's just not as bad yet because there aren't as many people there.

    If you're approaching Matrix like a centralised service, you're doing it wrong. You must set up a server for you and your friends, and then federate with the rest of Matrix.

  • Streaming over Matrix seems to work just fine with me and my friends. Might be the client we're using, or the fact it's a self-hosted server.

  • I wouldn't say Stoat. Too many missing features. Fluxer doesn't have Federation or E2EE yet.

    Sable currently is the best drop-in replacement for Discord.

  • This.

    A friend of mine went through the trouble of setting up a whole Matrix server with the Sable client when the first rumblings of this came up late last year.

    Everything was made and readily available for everyone one we knew to move over. They just had to make an account and that was it.

    Nobody came.

    Nobody fucking came.

    Its just me and two of my other friends on there, because despite everyone crying how Discord is doing something bad, when it comes to it they have nothing but excuses.

    "But all my friends are here..."

    "But there's a videogame community I'm part of..."

    "I don't understand. It's too complicated..."

    "I'll move if it really gets bad..."

    ICE in America is using AI profiling to get rid of or straight up murder peoole, trained on data which includes everything the age verification spyware in Discord sends directly to them. But they don't care. Their convenience is lore important than the lives of people.

    So fuck them.

  • TIL why the Mona Lisa became one of the most admired paintings in the world

    Jump

  • Well... Doesn't that go for most paintings?

  • [Mimi] Sushi. [16]

    Jump

  • Doesn't that describe an incredibly large portion of Earth's population?

    And what side near the Atlantic? East or West?

  • What Movie Soundtrack is BETTER than the movie?

    Jump

  • That King Arthur movie Guy Richie made is pretty bad, but the soundtrack is killer.

  • Why does that always seem to happen?

    Jump

  • The distress call may have been caused by the Romulans, and/or the Romulans actually have a fuck ton of covert operations in the Neutral Zone thanks to their cloaking device.

  • Blueberry sorbet?

    Anyway, I much prefer jokes about nazis. Especially threatening ones.

  • Linus Torvalds used AI to fix a Linux bug, and now LLM critics on Linux face an uncomfortable choice

    Jump

  • I have a feeling that in order to achieve using deep learning (because let's face it; it's not AI) as a programming assistant, AI companies didn't need to do half the shit they've done.

    The resources being outright burnt on their endeavours haven't served any useful purpose. You don't need data centres covering the globe and to destroy thousands of rare books to assist with code, or find cancer in a scan.

  • Linus Torvalds used AI to fix a Linux bug, and now LLM critics on Linux face an uncomfortable choice

    Jump

  • Well, so far Linus is the only person in the world, it seems, that is using AI as a tool instead of a crutch. So I agree with that sentiment.

    Jump

  • I keep seeing headlines like this, and of course conveniently leaving out how Torvalds chewed people out for vibe coding.

    Torvalds didn't vibe code away the Linux bug. He actually knows what he's doing.

  • Hang on to your Firefox!
