  • The dilema of charging the users and a solution by integrating blockchain to fediverse

    Jump

  • Who will keep the money? Who will calculate what users will have to pay? Who will verify that the money is being used for the purpose it was paid for? How will bringing crypto payments to fediverse increase users, considering that 99% of people have never used crypto before? What will happen to the data of users who decide not to pay anymore? Let's assume that all instances offer paid membership; wouldn't monopoly occur if a corporate/suspicious instance offers completely free membership? Wouldn't offering paid memberships hold instance admins legally liable?

    Who will leave the mainstream platforms that are completely free and have many more users, and then pay and use a platform that is 1 in 100,000 times the size?

    Even though I received a donation of about $10 for 1 year, I think the current system should continue. If money is involved in something, it would be abused.

  • Money involvement = enshitification

    Let fediverse be unprofitable.

    Instance Admins: Check Your Instance for Vote Manipulation Accounts [PSA]

    Jump

  • @ptz@dubvee.org I have cleaned these and some other bot accounts from my instance. I was ok to open registrations to this point because we were able to get reports for almost every activity and we could easily manage them. But unfortunately Lemmy does not have a regulatory mechanism for votes, so I'll keep it manual approval until then.

    Also it looks like they're manually creating accounts since we had captcha + email approval in our instance from the beginning. So this means that even with manual approvals, a botnet can be created – just in a delayed manner.

  • Alright. I’ll check this ASAP.

  • The two most upvoted comments on any Lemmy instance are on Feddit.dk, but you won't see them on your own instance

  • You're right, that's worse.

  • Does the receiver instance federate that like object to other instances? If not, it is shit for sure.

  • Instance admins, how much does it cost you to run your instance? How much does that represent per active user?

    Jump

  • About $50 monthly for server, backups, image hosting, mails etc.

  • What do people here think of Nebula?

    Jump

  • I’m using Headscale for work and Tailscale for personal use. I tried to use Nebula but it’s not easy as Tailscale.

  • [Resolved] lemmyverse.net looks to be unmaintained and is becoming increasingly less useful

  • Lemmy instances die twice

    Jump

  • iusearchlinux.fyi gone too. I'm glad feddit.ch at least announced this.

  • Lemmy Federate - automatically federate Lemmy communities

    Jump

  • Yes. But you can still do that, there are so many unmoderated communities anyway.

  • Maybe. I need to check Kbin API docs.

  • queer.af, a Mastodon instance, has been killed by the Taliban

  • Another reason to not use ccTLDs.

  • Should I move to Docker?

    Jump

  • It just making things easier and cleaner. When you remove a container, you know there is no leftover except mounted volumes. I like it.

  • My list of services I still miss on the fediverse

    Jump

  • Yep, I hate LinkedIn for their stupid ads and “premium” features.

  • Performance, memory and CPU usage tests of Tailscale, Netbird, Zerotier and Wireguard (+ UPD)

    Jump

  • Nice test! I’m a Tailscale user and I liked it being faster than others. I don’t care about memory usage but curious why there is a big gap 🤔 Like its using 20x more memory than Zerotier.

  • I guess, unfortunately, I was right 😐

  • I'm talking about possibilities. I get it. Domain could be blocked by registrar, host could be banned by hoster, IDK maybe he got DDOS.

    But the thing is, what happened to the donation pages? Did everyone decided to ban this guy at the same time? Also he didn't even send a message about situation. Not on Lemmy, Matrix nor Reddit.

    I shouldn't have been accused something like this tho. You are right about that. There is still a possibility that I'm pathetic :)

  • It may be about he didn’t wanted to transfer current donations.

    Update: it’s not a fact. I’m just guessing here. Not related with reality.
