  • The trick is starting a community, but delegating moderation to someone else. Admin ≠ Mod.

  • If you don't trust it, why use it? It's still slop in the end, just somewhat less slopified.

    Consider: either you are smarter than the tool you use, in which case it doesn't really offer anything much, or you are dumber than the tool you use, in which case you wouldn't be qualified to judge its results anyway.

  • Unsure about the IETF and WHATWG, but if at all, they'll be better than the W3C. The W3C was, and still is, a group co-opted by GAFAM to essentially make the web as hard as possible to implement so that only big corpo can "do it correctly", and they brought us wondrful features such as literally DRM in the HTML Standard.

    To this day the W3C is one of the big reason the internet doesn't progress.

  • Pluralistic: The online community trilemma

    Jump

  • This, worded in far more technical terms than I had understood back at the time, is one of the reasons why I've always opposed the idea of "merging" communities in the Fediverse. Merging views is fine, but merging the communities themselves and all that this means (focus, themes, memberships, rules, censorships, timezones...) is just Not.

    Thanks for joining in!

    Seriously, enough was going on with the project that the AI was just the final nail (or the deepest nail) in the coffin. What's important is that we denounce AI where we see it, as this (and not "usage") is the only non-violent way we have to try and lead a change in how AI is developed and deployed in the first place. The problem is not simply "someone can use AI in their spare time", it's what even has to happen as a prerequisite for that to even be a thing in the first place (code theft, mass license violation, environmental destruction, RAM shortages, erosion of civil and digital rights, exemptions for big corpo, you name it).

    We should all feel ashamed that an open source project was shuttered because of how our community acted.

    Open Source means the source is open, not that you can do whatever ass-unethical thing you want. That weird impression of the world is something that techbros, cryptobros and liberals are trying to push. Don't be fooled. We defended ourselves, and we managed a tie.

  • RIP Discord: Self-Hosted Discord Alternatives Tested (TeamSpeak, Stoat, Fluxer, Matrix, & More)

    Jump

  • That's precisely why they have to be resisted and/or we have to look for alternatives that Do One Thing Well. Among many other issues, the networking effect issue with EverythingApps is quite double-faceted in that, because they do everything, their "weight" not only acts as gilded cages to prevent people from leaving, but also to prevent developers, working on their spare time, from developing something that can be reasonably understood as an "alternative" (because the alternative has to also Do Everything).

    It's basically playing a loser game to lose, see eg.: Mozilla always at best playing catch-up to Google, or why we can't seem to move from BloatedWebWithReact to something like Gopher (or even make a proper Gopher 2.0).

    All that said, I feel like XMPP and Matterbridge are approaching this from the right perspective. Just implement a global communication protocol and leave to platform makers (or platform users) the task of bridging from and to whatever directions they want.
