Lobsters and hackernews.

Lemmy and piefed can be deviated into being used as a single sub instance as an alternative but it’s just not the same.

Other than this, we are pretty fine with the basics, it would be nice to have more people working towards letting mods be mods with proper tools without involving CLI.

Also some combo like local first acting as a PDS being able to be written by different softwares. (Basically atproto or solid yes)(yes silverpill and holos are working on this but 2 different people working on 2 different implementation of the hardest thing in the fedi doesn’t seem optimal for a network made of devs lol)

Originally, solarpunk was to talk only about solarpunk itself

Basically solarpunk theory

Why do you think this is a solarpunk approach to governance? Are there examples that work like that? What could go wrong? And so on to give it more depth and not just be a “news” link

Only half agree here. I get the low effort posting issue but it’s not like I expect every solarpunk to explain every win every post. It’s like saying “add why do you think it’s solarpunk if someone stops Israel”. Anticapitalism is one of the basic values of solarpunk as much as not liking genocide, racism and so on.

It’s also true that it’s much easier to spot a genocide rather than the practicalities of capitalism…

wow, that is ugly

Cannot seem to find it that spokesperson is still working for them tho

I don’t have LinkedIn access so if someone can…

We kinda agree I think. But we see differently what I posted probably. It’s true that it’s not about the tech itself but the development of tech; at the same time, licenses and engineering won’t build solarpunk alone…

I would ban news from almost the whole server to be honest, I just don’t see this as one but more like a communication from me to other solarpunks to say “yo people we’ve got another tech foundation we can use to not give money to capitalism”

In the latest rework of lemmini before the shutdown I just reimagined the main community as a solarpunk hackernews to ease this

It’s a lot more than domains and it’s still a tech company turning more anticapitalist

Selfhosting should be more for mutual help

But again, you know I intended slrpnk kinda differently so maybe I’m wrong compared to present times lol

Everyone is welcome to discuss things on !piefed_dev@piefed.social , the Zulip or Matrix groups.

yes, but we would go back to having more sources of truth that are heavier on the devs, even because of the repetitions and scattering of the same topics

why do you take single part of my message and answer to them like they are not part of the whole message blaze :(

first i said that single source of truth etc and then i pointed out that the single source has not to be dev oriented, don’t answer to my second point with the issue of the first point

Deactivitating issues there would hide visibility on the work being done and planned

that is not true, there are a lot of kanbans and ticketing software that can be used; to be fair, i should have said deactivating the possibility to open and comment except by mantainers

and in the system i proposed, you could still join and comment issues and features on piefed anyway (if you are not one of the piefed people)

no one said to not use codeberg, i just said to deactivate issues there

unifying the place where people talk and report

some people prioritize the git forge for this and leave out the rest, but this basically says ‘‘we don’t want you’’ to all non developers

I’m not sure if you are referring to some particular situations but I totally get the feeling

Maybe it’s time to rework the issues pipeline.

No more chats, no more zulip, no more GitHub issues

A piefed community for feature requests and one for issues, with a bot chained to linear or similar and mods to help you without being devs or learning git etc

Single source of truth, on your own platform :o

P.S. and deep focus timeblocks or communication timeblocks

Don’t see zulip as a chat, it’s a forum with a chat interface. So yes, making another account for a specific forum is not that bad.

Do you happen to have a way to search without making an account?

tbf op said they made a flag, not “THE” flag :)

Ohhhh ok it’s less bad than i thought! Thank you for the clarification

Just to be clear:

basically, until now, instance ban was not an actual instance ban but “ban from the communities that person had in cache from my instance”?

So if, for example, a new community was made, the person could just write there like not instance banned?

for reddit it happens that when an item reaches the ‘‘top month’’ status, it gets added to the rss

It’s acceptable for some communities, not for others…

To be fair I also don’t like the fact that “private” usually means that the server admins can still read what’s inside. I get it for images but for text…

MLS on activitypub is very much needed

The weakest link is the social element.

From one sysadmin to watch, now there would be at least 2. It’s better to not give a false sense of security, so I understand why one would not federate them at all.

Maybe “gated” communities would be better rather than private in the case you refer to

The public records from the companies that sell stocks are not so useful anyway.

Obviously I’d prefer to know more about Proton spending, but the examples made in the video like “I want to know how much proton has spent on that YouTube ad” are just impossible. You can open an Apple shareholders report and check it yourself.

Still, I’d rather have no capitalism rather than capitalism + financial transparency reports. One day they will sue you if you don’t pursuit more profit. Not gonna happen with foundations.

edit: I misread the comment and answered like you were referring to openai and google and not mozilla and wikipedia, sorry

It’s like saying Mozilla is a for profit or Wikipedia is a for profit.

Having a for profit company under the non profit ownership is just to ease bureaucracy.

This doesn’t change the fact that the ultimate owner is the foundation and so there is no shareholder to pressure etc.

A counter argument to this could have been exploring the OpenAI case and how it’s trying to get out of the no profit model. But for some reason privacy YouTubers never make that much research into stuff… Almost like they are just earning on that engagement that you get when not being boringly nuanced :)

The YouTuber also states that 9 privacy policies are bad and tbh Proton could probably unify some of them but the thing is that they are actually different: they said in the past, for example, that privacy laws for VPNs in Switzerland are better than those for emails, so it’s pretty ok to have 2 different privacy policies (I wonder if they could at least unifiy drive, mail calendar ones). Google can have just one because it’s simply “we gather as much data as we can” for every service they have.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions

Post-capitalism is just “we are the good crypto bros”. It’s true that they are not bad people, but it’s still capitalism without any doubt.

That’s not happening to me… I’ve installed it from brew and there is no need for me to do anything weird except the occasional “this app was downloaded from internet so you allow it” when updating from brew (stuff that gets updated natively doesn’t even ask this)
