• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is data congregation so hard on Mastodon?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Its all about pub sub relations. Being on a smaller instance in mastodon means u miss a whole bunch of activity and thus don’t have the full picture.

  Lemmy and others have a community which means a community receives an activity and then that community pushes that activity to all its subscribed instances. So in lemmy u need at least 1 user from ur instance to subscribe to a community for its activity to be sent to ur instance.

  On mastodon all activity by a user is sent to all instances with at least one user who follows that user. So if nobody on ur instance follows a specific user then their content will never show up on ur instance. Its a difficult problem to solve as u can’t just send all activity to all instances cos that will overload most instances. Their are relays that relay activities from its member instances to other instances but as u would expect the larger the relay the more content u must deal with on ur instance and u can get overloaded pretty quick.

  The whole point of federation is to send activities only to instances that need them as not to force everyone to have the entire fediverse on their server and handle and activities from the entire fediverse (one of the reasons bluesky federation doesn’t work for small instances).

  Who would have thought that assaulting officers with a deadly weapon will get you dead. Who possibly could have expected this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do websites now prefer IP-based geolocation rather than the `Accept-Language` HTTP header?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I would assume because ur hitting the geolocated cache which will be IP based. I would assume its not doing a location check its simply that the site is being served by the nearest (IP routing wise) provider and that cache is configured to serve only the local language.
