  • The green bubble problem is about to get even worse (Apple/Android)

  • No way would i use an iphone. I outgrew its capabilities in 2010, spent 3 years not updating until i could get an untethered jailbreak and finally gave it up in 2013. I have helped people with iphones and ipads since then and nothing has convinced me to go back.

  • Hypothetical: What would happen if every user in the fediverse hosted their own server?

    Jump

  • Well, if we wanted say 50 million users at 5000 users per instance we would have 10000 instances. If we wanted 1 billion users we would have 200 thousand instances

  • I dont think so. As an example, take the !technology@beehaw.org community for example. It can have say 1000 subscribers from lemmy.ml but only needs to send content to lemmy.ml once as it comes in. All 1000 subscribers see the cache copy from lemmy.ml and a message is only sent back to beehaw.org for comments, votes, etc. With everyone having their own instance beehaw.org would have to send updates to each one instead of sending an update to one instance and 100 users seeing it. A good level to strive for is many small communities of say a few thousand (1-5 thousand or so). That way one single server doesnt get to massive but federation requests arent overwhelming instances either

  • Jerboa super laggy suddenly (0.0.33)

    Jump

  • Prob server load. You are a lemmy.world user and i think that may be one of the better known instances

  • Reddit Wave and the Threadiverse

    Jump

  • You seem like the right person to ask. If a user on instance b makes a comment on a post that is on an instance "a l" community my understanding is instance b sends that comment to instance a and then instance a sends messages to instances c, d, e, f, and so on telling them about the new comment?

  • How would you make Lemmy nicer for yourself?

  • I miss the information density of redreader. Everything just feels so spread out.

  • Alternative to Google Pay

    Jump

  • Yeah, they took the web version down because it was unreliable. It should be back later this year

  • Reddit already looks different for me

    Jump

  • I just deleted both my reddit accounts but overwrote years worth of comments and posts first

  • Deleted

  • I use searx for everything except conversions. For example "!ddg 0.35xmr in usd"

  • [Question] How to change the sorting setting when viewing comments?

  • You know, im honestly not sure. You can on web but i dont see a way to do it on the app

  • [Question] How to change the sorting setting when viewing comments?

    Jump

  • Not that i am aware of, no. The default sort seems to be "hot" and has to be changed manually when a post is opened. Under settings there is a thing that changes post sort but it does nothing for comments

  • What are your favorite resources for staying up to date on technology, software, security, scalability, privacy etc

    Jump

  • News websites tech sections via rss. Mainly epoch times, new york post, and one america news. I bet if i used some others like slashdot i would prob know about newer stuff sooner, but it keeps me updated. Though i honestly havent been keeping up to much lately because every damn story is "AI" this and "AI" that. Otherwise its "ChatGPT" this or "BARD" that. I am absolutely not interested in closed source AI

  • Email is the oldest Federated service.

  • What do you mean? I can talk to mastodon, kbin, pixelfed, peertube, etc users from inside lemmy and same with my mastodon

  • Alternative to Google Pay

    Jump

  • Not that i am aware of personally

  • Alternative to Google Pay

    Jump

  • I use cake pay, but thats monero wich is more similar to cash. I have mostly given up on fiat for a lot of transactions

  • what features would y'all need to a join a video sharing service on the fediverse

    Jump

  • Sadly no video platform will ever stand up to yt without creators. Odysee is the closest and thats only because youtube bans decenting opinion about topics

  • What's your daily driver?

    Jump

  • Lineageos motorola one 5g ace. However the charging port is being fickle so i will be replacing it in the next month or so with the oneplus nord n200. Were it not for the charging port i would keep the moto and be very happy. First phone i have ever had start to fail like that. I have backed up all my data onto my old pixel 3a xl just in case the moto just wont charge one day when i plug it in.

  • 3rd party reddit app redreader avoids the purge (for now)
