  1. Reposting easily attainable public information is not "doxing"

  2. Criticizing someone's political views is perfectly reasonable

  3. If you were acting in good faith and truly believed what you were saying then you would not have reposted the "doxing" information

Lemmy and Piefed are much more 1:1 reddit replacements. Mbin is it's own thing, which is very high quality, but has less out of the box appeal to someone looking for "fediverse reddit".

Bluesky isnt decentralized

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

But if it's open source what is stopping them from simply creating another bluesky like yesterday?

Jay Graber's background before BlueSky is in Web3 so take that information how you will.

My bad, I'm not an expert here but it's weird that it's open source and yet nobody else can have a bluesky? Like could I download that code and make a bluesky for everyone? If so why has nobody else done it? why is there only one for profit bluesky?

To answer your question though, no nothing has changed.

It's still for profit, not federated and ~~closed source~~ so honestly I don't know why it's being discussed here

What's going on? Why does this offtopic comment have 14 upvotes and no upvotes?

EDIT: Dead internet theory here in full force. This post is about Lemmy. The only thing that has to do with Substack is the example post that OP highlighted to demonstrate issues with Lemmy federation. And yet the top comment (and replies to my comment) is going on as if this post is about Substack, almost as if it was written by a technology that cannot understand context.

When over 100,000 people are doing it more than 24 times per day on average over a six month time scale.

Another great night of episodes! Featuring Tuvix because people have some strong feelings!

  • TNG (9ET): I, Borg
  • DS9 (10 ET): Shadows and Symbols
  • VOY (11 ET): Tuvix
  • ENT (midnight): The Breach"

Been watching DS9 Season two and have been very impressed with the quality. I remembered it being "pretty good" but in my memory it was "the season with "The Circle" trilogy, "Melora", "Rivals" and "The Maquis", episodes and story lines that never really did it for me. I think that made me forget how many really good one-off episodes were also here, to name a few:

  • "Necessary Evil"
  • "Rules of Acquisition"
  • "The Alternate"
  • "Armageddon Game"
  • "Whispers"
  • "Paradise"
  • "Shadowplay"

All bangers!

Also I love how this season ever so slowly drip-drops dominion references culminating with the season finale "The Jem Hadar"

Someone should probably jump in and explain what federation means.

 

I have an aging Kindle and am looking for a new eReader to both read books and articles I've saved throughout the day. I use Wallabag to save articles. I like it over Pocket because it's better for paywalls because it fetches content directly from the browser.

I am leaning Kobo because of apps like Wallabako and KoReader (not exactly what that is yet but people seem to like it).

Anyone else have a similar setup or have any advice?
