  • Fediverse blogging?

    Jump
    • Writefreely is the established option.
    • Wordpress has activitypub plugin.
    • Mastodon (or the like) is probably good enough.
    • Wafrn is tumblr like blogging.
    • Openwrite is the new kid in the block similiar to Writefreely.

  • Let it go bro. Just switch to Firefox & co. Or at least use it less for something that does not require ad-blocking.

  • Fediverse alternative for Tiktok?

    Jump

  • It uses activitypub, the same as Pixelfed. It is the same creator afterall. AFAIK, it is not yet federated. It ask for registration because it is pretty much in open beta right now. No other fediverse alternatives for Tiktok except that.

    Edit: more about them on the FAQ.

  • This might be good middle ground. The last time I tried beeper, the apps is kinda .... suck tho. Well, at least it not full of ads!

    Does it still require user to install their desktop app first?

  • The most important people in my life is my family, especially my parents. Teaching them to try new app to chat to me is easy enough but all of their friends and groups are still on whatsapp.

    Making them juggle between two apps (separating how they interact to me and totheir friends) is not easy. Justifying it is even harder, they simply don't care (to understand) the implication.

    Rather than make them confused and worried about not being able to contact me, I just have to accept the status quo. It is the conclusion I arrive at.

    Must be nice tho to not use any Meta product. :)

  • Already did that months ago when they change the term of services and people are aware of it at the time. Many install Signal, tried them, signal got overloaded, experience degraded, people are back to Whatsapp. Now only dead account are there. Telegram is more popular but that is just jumping from crocodile's mouth to shark's.

    Government agencies, company customee services all relies on Whatsapp. They have emails but if you want to get response in timely manners, Whatsapp is the way to go (Or twitter, again another bad alternatives).

    At least it is still E2E (supposedly), so it is not all bad. Look, I know I sound pessimistic because I am (at least in this specific topic). I hope everyone else can do better than me, cheers!

  • This is one of the train that impossible for me to get off. It is very ubiquitous in my country to use whatsapp instead of text. I must suck it up I guess. 😅

  • This is an old comment but I am replying anyway.

    The idea of statelessness is not limiting user configuration but giving user a sane default config. Many software doesn't work without a config file, the idea is that a software should ship a default (vendored) configuration that make the software can be used as is. The default config is stored at vendored directory. This default config file then should be able overriden by user own config.

    For example: Alex needs program "A" for work but program "A" needs a config file to even launch. Ideally the program "A" should ship a default config file to vendored directory in /usr. If Alex needs to modify the configuration to fit his needs, now he can do that by copying the default configuration in /usr directory to either /etc (system wide) or /.local/config (per-user). Alex now can modify the config file as he pleases. Now, in case some modification Alex made make program "A" doesn't work, he can just nuke his own config file and program "A" will work again because of the default config is there as a fallback.

    Good news is many program is already following this schema of configuration files but there are also many low-level program that does not (bash, pam, etc).
