When a bridge works like the discord and the Signal and WhatsApp ones it’s amazing not to need to log in to those services anymore just to see if someone wrote something to you.
Sadly most of the bridges are either broken like the Facebook one or straight out don’t work like she KakaoTalk and WeeChat ones because the services remove capabilities which before made it possible in a hacky way.

I run it on Ubuntu and installed it with apt about 7 years ago and had zero problems, it updates itself when I run apt upgrade, it turns itself off for a couple of seconds and then it’s back up.

One cool thing is that I had no idea that this happened until I just read it on their blog even though me, my friends and family use Matrix extensively.
But all my friends who are on Matrix host their own servers because it’s quite easy, and my family uses my own server, only my brother uses a matrix.org account, but he doesn’t write much.
This is decentralization working as it’s supposed too, when enough participants are federated and not centralized.
On Lemmy the lemmy.world and the piefed.social instances are similar to matrix.org and I think all of them, including mastodon.social should close new registrations. I mean the flagship instances have their place in the beginning, but once they become so big they should be locked. The teams behind them can open another instance if they want to keep growing, but they should be run on a separate infrastructure to prevent bringing them down at the same time.

- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 1 week ago:
I’m lucky enough that Linux is one of the half official OS which are allowed and half supported at work.
I’m even more lucky that IT isn’t tech savy enough to be able to do to the Linux installations what they do to Windows and Mac where they preinstalled some rootkits and don’t give you admin rights.
Therefore I’m a Linux enjoyer without involvement of IT. I need to fix all my problems myself and do security and backups myself, but that’s a price I’m more than willing to pay.
- Comment on UK | Sex offenders to be denied parental responsibility for children born of rape 1 week ago:
I’m so used to bad news nowadays that I was confused and was trying to find the catch in the article. But it seems there is none, just a good reasonable decision from what I understand?
Perhaps this should be reposted to uplifting News?

- Comment on If you lose your memories, are "you" dead? If a close relative/friend lose their memories, are they still "your relative/friend"? What the hell even is memory? How sentimental are you about memories? 3 weeks ago:
Everybody loses their memories all the time.
You are not your memories, it’s not your memories which define you.

- Comment on PSA: Stop using Imgur for now 3 weeks ago:
That is interesting, I just checked and your image is indeed hosted by PieFed itself and not by any external service like I assumed that the 3rd party apps would implement as a workaround.
- Comment on PSA: Stop using Imgur for now 3 weeks ago:
I can see it, But in PieFed I can’t upload one.
- Comment on PSA: Stop using Imgur for now 3 weeks ago:
I do, that’s the only one I can remember which I can embed easily here.
What are the alternatives? I wish I could just upload images for comments in PieFed.
- Comment on Best Synology Replacement? 3 weeks ago:
I’m also looking for something like that, I’m afraid of their closed source software. As a workaround right now I’m trying to move everything to some open source stuff which I can run in docker on that hardware.

Static page generator is already half way to a blog with a database.
- Comment on Why can't we have a static vintage web? 4 weeks ago:
It wasn’t better. Static pages are just boring, you read it one time and then that’s it. Not enough people can write plain HTML so it would matter.
The internet today with Lemmy, Mastodon, etc. is way closer to what Tim Berners-Lee imagined that everyone would be a publisher, not only consumer.

From what I gather it is to look more authentic and in the moment, unprepared.

In the last two days every time I read some weird take which logically just doesn’t make sense, on something it’s the same person posting it.
I don’t think this user will get better at posting, probably the easiest way is to block him so they stop waisting my time.

It depends a bit on your operating system and your willingness to tinker a bit.
I myself would ask ChatGPT to create a application for that. - Comment on Oktoberfest! 5 weeks ago:
