- Comment on Why do companies always need to grow? 2 days ago:
Growth stocks are worth more than mature stocks, because people are more likely to invest if they think they’ll make money back.

Kettle broke, and it was damaging the vinyl anyway.

Pimmel.

It’s a portmanteau of a slur
- Comment on Opinions on Jurassic Park as a Zoo 1 week ago:
On tumblr, instead of replies and re(posts|woots|tweets)/boosts, there’s just reblogging.
You can put a small hidden message in the hashtags section of a post, and sometimes people post these as a reblog if they see one someone else posted that shouldn’t be hidden (in their opinion).
- Comment on Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared 2 weeks ago:
I’m pretty sure it’s just a joke.
Maybe they’re the anarchist equivalent of the ACP.
- Comment on Mastodon has a new plan to make money: Hosting and support services for the open social web 2 weeks ago:
They had to migrate to something else because it violated the AGPL

I don’t think there is any party currently in the world that is Maoist
There is some in Nepal iirc. I’m sure there is other maoist parties, but they’re fringe.

This happens every time there’s a new windows version
- Comment on Mastodon is bringing quote posts to the fediverse 3 weeks ago:
Sure, but its not a fault of the protocol itself. You could easily choose to discard

objects on ActivityPub. - Comment on Mastodon is bringing quote posts to the fediverse 3 weeks ago:
Well, it’s a bit more than just using their identity to sign in, data is also stored on their PDS.
It’s entirely possible to make a server that accepts several different lexicons, wafrn plans on doing this for articles.
- Comment on Mastodon is bringing quote posts to the fediverse 3 weeks ago:
Sharkey, misskeys, pleroma, akkoma, wafrn and friendica already have quotes.
- Comment on Mastodon is bringing quote posts to the fediverse 3 weeks ago:
It usually comes down to a difference in vision, the fediverses schtick is that you can follow Reddit from Twitter or whatever, whereas on atproto you use a different appview for different formats, like frontpage.fyi for links, and whtwnd.net for blogging.
- Comment on Mastodon is bringing quote posts to the fediverse 3 weeks ago:
Quotes have been on the fediverse for ages. Mastodon is just catching up.
- Comment on On discourse and decentralisation 3 weeks ago:
Go to their preferred appview (like bsky.app, blacksky.community or zeppelin.social) and make an account there.
- Comment on On discourse and decentralisation 3 weeks ago:
I’d say it is, since atproto is, at the very least, open.

Checking this one: blacksky.app
It returns this:

which isn’t blank, and describes what it is.
That specific repo indexes PDSes only.
If you’re looking for something closer to a full instance (like on activitypub) wafrn may interest you, it’s a bit more niche though. - Comment on On discourse and decentralisation 3 weeks ago:

Piefed has fewer instances, really. - Comment on Can we please stop arguing about whether Bluesky is decentralized? 3 weeks ago:
???
The PDS and the Appview combined are equivalent to an instance. Both run on shitware. - Comment on Microsoft doesn't understand the Fediverse 3 weeks ago:
Lemmy doesn’t support following people, you need a mastodon or Sharkey account for that. Check sharkey.world and mas.to
- Comment on Microsoft doesn't understand the Fediverse 3 weeks ago:
Lea.pet also got a c&d for @apple@lea.pet
- Comment on Can we please stop arguing about whether Bluesky is decentralized? 3 weeks ago:
Yes, you can.
You can easily run a PDS, that’s the main public-facing part, you’d need port forwarding and a domain name for this.
Appviews are easier to host imo, github.com/alnkesq/AppViewLite is what I use. You can run this on a PC right now, and log in with your bluesky account. - Comment on Can we please stop arguing about whether Bluesky is decentralized? 4 weeks ago:
My head. Lemmy.world has 15,000 (roughly) monthly active users, the threadiverse has roughly 60,000 active users,
- Comment on Can we please stop arguing about whether Bluesky is decentralized? 4 weeks ago:
It controls ~30% of the threadiverse, then.
- Comment on Statement on discourse about ActivityPub and AT Protocol 4 weeks ago:
Bluesky is a for-profit public benefit corporation, but there stuff is open source. and ATproto is great.
