CS2 is Counter Strike 2. Cities: Skylines 2 is C:S2
- Comment on Oh, Zot! Nomadic Identity is Coming to ActivityPub 2 months ago:
This is great! Account portability is one of the biggest reasons BlueSky gave for developing ATProto instead of using ActivityPub. This could be a way of getting them to switch to the standard and expand the fediverse in the process.

Not entirely sure what you mean by that. It deletes posts in the same way that any other ActivityPub server does, by federating the deletion request.
It’s up to the receiving servers to handle that request and delete the post. You can easily have an ActivityPub native server that doesn’t honor those requests.
- Comment on Tear Down Walls, and Build Bridges 2 months ago:
Bridgy doesn’t scrape anything. It works the same as any other ActivityPub instance, the only difference is that it converts some JSON from one format to another.
It also converts edit and deletion events, so in your scenario it would relay that you want your poem or photo deleted.
This isn’t a web scrapper that reposts content like all the bots reposting Reddit threads to Lemmy. This is a protocol translator between federated networks that speak different languages.

That’s exactly the point. Isolationists instances can always defederate bridges if they don’t like them. This outrage is them imposing their will on the rest of the fediverse.
- Comment on Tear Down Walls, and Build Bridges 2 months ago:
This insane isolationism from the vocal minority will kill ActivityPub. The fact that the author is now backing down and switching to an opt-in system is infuriating. Makes want to fork the project and host a copy of the bridge that’s opt-out.
- Comment on Instances in the free fediverses should consider "transitive defederation" from instances that federate with Meta 4 months ago:
The good news is that none of the large instances are going for these insane policies. Small instances and solo instances can defederate themselves into irrelevance all they want, just like beehaw did.
- Comment on YouTube forcing users to enable 'Watch history' to show video recommendations 9 months ago:
Google constantly does this unethical bundling of features with privacy switches. I remember when I used to use Android that turning off Location History meant you couldn’t save your home and work address on Google Maps.
- Comment on Google throws its weight behind yet another messaging standard 9 months ago:
Unless I’m missing something, this isn’t a messaging standard like RCS or XMPP. This is just a way to do E2EE messaging. Just like Signal and Whatsapp both use the Signal protocol for E2EE messaging but are completely siloed networks, MLS would be much the same.
