  • How much money does Lemmy.ml need to temporarily boost their servers?

    Jump
  • Nowadays doesn’t even make any sense to use servers. ... Why not create something better?

    i think you might underestimate the problem.

    Jami.net (a decentralized messaging app) works p2p. it uses a torrent-like distributed-hashmap to locate the peers at any moment. (The main usability issue for nontechnical users, is that devices on an internal ip address aren't addressable from outside. This requires (a single point of failure and privacy concern), a turn-server)

    They started to incorporate Git for merging chats for the reason that any of set of peers (of a group chat) can be out of reach of another set of peers, i.e. the chat continues on different branches and needs to be merged again later.(this happens in the clients-app, because there is no central server). Jami is aiming at double-digit group sizes.. That's not nearly the size of what Lemmy is handling.

  • Maybe a developer is better suited to answer that question. @nutomic@lemmy.ml i'd assume there's a difference in load in the backend and load on the frontend.

  • if you're a registered user on a server, when you click [Communities], there you can see

    • [local] communities - Those created on your server
    • [all] communities - Those local and also those already federated to your server

    You can subscribe to a community of any server which your server can federate with. The list of connected servers you can find via the /instances link at the bottom of the page.

    There's an easy to use community search tool here https://browse.feddit.de/

    If you've found a community you like to follow, translate the original URL to a federated URL You do this by putting the community URL of the original server in the search bar; e.g.

    (This search functionality is available in the web interface, but not yet available in the Jerboa app)

    The result will list the federated URL. A federated URL has the form:https://<your server>/c/<community-id>@<other server>

    Visiting the federated link, and clicking [Subscribe] will make that community be federated to your server from now on. Your subscribed community will now also be listed under the [all] communities listing on your server.

  • imo, Odysee has better search options than Rumble.

    The idea being that when you have the desktop client, you're actually seeding the video's onto the network yourself( LBRY.com) i like. But since the odysee website/html-frontend was introduced, the desktop client/seeding technology became way overlooked.

    The video streaming performance has become much bettter, but lately it has all kind of commercials built in. I wonder how much is actually still based on the initial 'torrent'-idea. I wonder what kind of data are they selling, in order to store all the content. Because i don't believe the initial 'torrent' seeding idea by clients is what makes lbry so fast.

    Content wise, it is home to quite some content creators which came from YouTube because they were censored. YouTube has a political agenda, and as a result the content there is void of fringe opinion. Most censored information from fringe scientists etc i am able to find on odysee👍

    (edit) The amount of nonsense Dutch politics have been giving out about Covid jabs may have been detected more if censorship of critics wasn't so intrusive. e.g. the minister of healthcare litterally claiming 'tested to the bone' and 'safe and effective' while the phase 2 and 3 trials were still ongoing🤨And now those same politicians are all about censoring misinformation.. The irony.

  • in Holland we've seen environmental protests taking extreme forms while not being condemned as extreme. They're being discussed as "people who have concerns" while other groups aren't portrayed like that.

    Also, a protester was invited to a popular mainstream talkshow and glued himself to the table (which was easily undone afterwards). Other protesting figures for other means, with a reasonable following, and never calling for arms (while being protrayed in msm to do just that), don't even get a seat on that "talkshow".

    Also e.g. A protest organized by 'extinction rebellion' was able to seige a runway at an airport. imo, it's unthinkable for a random group to do that unless there's inside support. In my opionion millitary police would have intervened before they would be able to block the runway with those numbers.

  • i guess D.C.G.C(and the C.B.D.C.) are incompatible with actual crypto. Any news on that front?

  • indeed.

    i dont’ think i can find the source for this one, but; there was a group doing a questionaire under people who didn’t trust the media’s perception. The outcome surprised the group. it seemed that those people having work where they have much contact with people were better of during the pandemic health wise than those having a more secluding life. ofcourse the “more research is required” clause applies.

  • yeah, i conclued similar as what your article says about the writer of the link i provided;

    “There is just no evidence that they make any difference,” the lead author said in a media interview. This brought an unusual chastisement from the Cochrane Library’s editor-in-chief, who stated it was “not an accurate representation of what the review found.”

    if they can't say with certainty that it does/doesnt' work based on all the previous studies. i read it as; There's no firm prove it works against resporatory virusses. That's why i wouldn't bet on it like my life depends on it.

  • Don't immediately throw the ideology card please. Further down in 'plain language' they state;

    We are uncertain whether wearing masks or N95/P2 respirators helps to slow the spread of respiratory viruses based on the studies we assessed.

    Believe what you will. Cheers

  • Actually, it was talking about the studies it had available as sources. Bascially, garbage in garbage out. As i read it, they don't disqualify their own used methods.

  • Hi. The article starts with a reference to a publication dated February 10, 2021

    This publication dated Jan 2023 says masks were hardly effective [edit: they were unable to make firm conclusions either way]

  • i'd expect them to also consider the effect of applied covid treatment(s), but i don't read anything about that

  • i can attest that the prices are going up in Netherlands considerably. e.g. 2022 saw a 30% increase of people obtaining food from food-banks (ref)

    imo, it's all thanks to the Agenda2030( S.D.G. , U.N.) climate fanatics in the Dutch government. While mega-corporations have insane profit, we're being told it's the oil prices etc.

    Also, during covid, govt also did a good job in ensuring nobody with good idea's had entrance to them. e.g. air-filtration developers were set for testing etc, but govt had faked its interest.(2x 1st hand sources). Result: all went as govt pleased, causing much damage both to people and small businesses. i'm thoroughly convinced there's blackmail of the worst kind involved.(e.g. dutch)

  • Still, for me, those sort of tricks aren't a mistake. There's too much involved with politics.Thanks for the extra insight though. Cheers

  • Actually, poll outcomes are very influential..

    This compilation is making a mountain range out of a molehill.

    Depends what you are willing to tolerate from 'nonbiased media' i guess

  • ahum.. they didn't just ignore him.. They did all kind of tricks. (from 15:00 the media tricks are covered)

  • It's not about what you/i think of Ron Paul. If News & media pull those tricks as shown on us, then who are we kidding..i'd like you to check out the video starting from 15:00. And tell me what you think of it

  • At least your first assumption( "Seems .. a covid denier") is false.

    He is one of those scientists who was all for it, got the jab, promoting masks. The whole lot. Educating the masses with whatever FDA and WHO were putting out. When the publications started telling a different story than what we were told to believe he chose to follow the evidence.. (around this time he changed his background poster) In one of his video's he genuinely apologized for science missing the mark, and that thus he was misinforming the masses by it. His backdrop now says "follow the evidence...". Also, If he would be a covid-quak, youtube would have censored him long ago by breaking youtube guidelines.

    i wonder how many more people were downvoting(not saying it was you) without an idea what it's about :/
