Fair enough. In bad times, that is true for me as well. But these times pass eventually. At least they always have in the past.
- Comment on The world needs fewer cynics and more skeptics. 2 months ago:
Same. I mostly try to be honest with myself as I found that copium rarely is helpful. We‘re in this mess now and we can either sulk or get going. I choose to get going day after day. Hows that for aspirational statements? :)
- Comment on The world needs fewer cynics and more skeptics. 2 months ago:
Being cynical and defeatist is a coping mechanism. Like racism, its a form of dealing with a continuously shitty situation while not addressing the real problem.
If you look at the small amount of people that drink 1000$ wine bottles for lunch while you‘re struggling to pay the rent, then you find the problem these cynics are unable to address.
- Comment on Caddy and forgejo 2 months ago:
I dont know about caddy but nginx proxy manager does this very well. Also, if running in docker, you can expose the port that runs ssh for forgejo und a different port than the host machine‘s (eg 2222). In that case you just put the remote in with the port and call it a day.

This is the way
- Comment on The future of Minecraft’s development 2 months ago:
They‘re probably also gonna wreck the modding community with this as it has been hard to keep up already.
I personally will stay with voxelibre as it is open source and doesnt have telemetry baked in.

Have you seen the blender movie? Its quite short but you dont need any equipment to make good animated movies anymore. Its all there.
- Comment on Let's clarify something: does Bluesky allow federated servers on their network? Is there a list of those independent servers? 2 months ago:
Thanks for chiming in. Thats very insightful. It still seems like bsky is claiming to be something that its not.
- Comment on Minecraft *Movie Edition* 2 months ago:
I‘m somewhat sure the person who made the trailer will make a version of the film out of pure spite that works exactly like this and its going to be the best thing ever, maybe even shaking the movie industry.
- Comment on Let's clarify something: does Bluesky allow federated servers on their network? Is there a list of those independent servers? 2 months ago:
So, from up close it seems like people can have their own servers (i checked wurzelmann.at which is currently on the frontpage) but they do not seem to have their own frontend.
This indeed makes it so that for people to actually SEE your content you must federate with one entity and are controlled by them.
Imo this is very bad because it takes the freedom out of federation. Yes, you dont need to login to an app but if they ban you or defederate or delete your post, nobody will see it, right?
Please someone who has tried and gets the technical details shed light on this.

Feel free to make a community or find one and link it here! :) i‘ll happily join and put in some work.

Check fedipact.online for instances that have defederated threads. Good luck! :)

Amen
- Comment on Is IONOS ok for a VPS? 2 months ago:
I‘ve been their webhosting for 10 years and besides some minor errors (website didnt work for 30 mins here and there) I‘m very happy.
I informed myself about their cloud programme with help of a sales rep and although it is quite expensive compared to hetzner, it seems very usable.
I dont think you need to worry about them for a vps. Its not like they would rob you or your data will be lost. They might turn out to be slightly better or worse than hetzner long term which would both be fine in my book.
- Comment on Matrix let-down 2 months ago:
Matrix is a protocol, unlike discord. The problems often come with the different clients. I personally suggest fluffychat wherever I go since that is the most usable in my experience. Element I have installed as a backup on all my devices if I need to troubleshoot.
Same as with apple‘s „iforgot“ service: the privilege of privacy comes with responsibility. You must either take care of a couple things yourself or pay someone to do it. On discord, a huge margin of people pays with real money and the rest with their data.
To the topic: Matrix rooms have a version and the server you make them on matters a lot. Therefore I would stay on org if none of you know your way around. If you have skills, make your own and configure it in the most non individual way possible for maximum compatibility. If people cant join even when you invited them, you might have to check if the servers each federate correctly. If not, switch servers or tell your admin.

Thats exceptionally insightful. Thank you for sharing some rate wisdom.
- Comment on Cryptolancing - A job marketplace where you can pay and be paid in crypto for your work 2 months ago:
I agree 100%. If you want any help from a fellow admin and coder, my matrix handle is in my profile. Feel free to hit me up.
If you search for lemmy bots you should definitely find some.
Also, I couldnt subscribe earlier, not sure why. I‘ll try again in a sec but you should keep an eye on it because this can hamper popularity substantially.
- Comment on Cryptolancing - A job marketplace where you can pay and be paid in crypto for your work 2 months ago:
I dont get the blanket-hate. I saw your initial post about this and I‘m glad you went through with it.
You might want to have concise methods and tipps in your sidebar to mitigate scams because they will likely happen as they do with real money.
Judging from the reaction, you might also straight up look for mods who can delete span and trolling since hate = trolls will come and try to shut you down.

Although thats probably not whats going to happen if google gets broken up but I‘ll still happily pay for firefox just for the sake of breaking up google.
Death to megacorporations.

Thank you for your opinion.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
Nice wording. Blocked.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
Whatever you‘re doing, you might wanna do less of it. Valve has been doing these kinds of things for a long time and anyone who understands markets knows that there is no monopoly without taking out the competition.
In any case, I know you wouldnt admit it if I presented you with rockhard evidence that they did it and thats okay. I‘m not doing this for you.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
I do appreciate you taking the time to write this up and I didnt get a confrontational vibe from you.
But excusing it by saying „could be better“ makes you part of the problem.
Billionaires are the cancer of this world and anti competitive actions have evidently been committed, if you like to hear it or not.
Tell your friend gabe to start making a real difference in the world because he actually can and then you can say its not that bad.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
I see your point. A reason why I brought this up is because valve does not see criticism for the things they also do wrong and especially on this platform, rarely does anyone look at them from a non favorable view. Thats not because they dont do wrong but because they are good at marketing and other gaming companies are a lot worse than them.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
Putting them in their own not the main tab does add a click to viewing them, no?
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
The underlying issue here is that we are in this mess because our parents and grandparents didnt do this (enough). So yes, going against corporations is kind of my hobby.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
Well, I might wanna be more direct in my critique in the future. Thanks for giving constructive criticism.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
My point is everything but irrelevant. Sorry you cant see that.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
So I was right about you trying to use something against me that you didnt understand. Good to know.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 3 months ago:
Steam does provide a good product, no critique there. My point is the fact that they too are employing anti competitive measures and serve a billionaire. I wont stop criticizing that.
