what makes this so great? ( genuinely curious. slightly critical)

maybe its time people redirect their money to supporting peertube

better to keep track of a ton of torrents and seed the ones that go completely dead

We share a public space with LLMs now

I think this is really cool.
But…
What it is: low bandwidth literal physical replacement of internet infrastructure. Often seen as a very extreme manuver.

Meanwhile: there are various overlay projects like i2p which, unfortunately, create new internets which [almost totally] reliance on the old internet. But they do cooler shit.

Diaspora allows for whitelisting visibility of posts to certain users(and servers… depending on where users are hosted)

POS does not consume resources.
This goes to show how low-effort the criticism campaigns are.
However… all cryptos have their health tied to bitcoin which is a large energy consumer. So the point is actually still very true (due to some other reason).

immediately followed by the rollout of Google Self-Driving Car Project Business -Waymo

I cant find any information that discusses the security risk. But it would seem that this transfering all content to the owner of the phone number is a standard feature.
So, maybe its not discussed because it doesn’t frequently happen.
It doesnt seem like a trustworthy way to ensure users’ content remains secure.

If someone trys to register with an existing number then it wont work if its already being used.
Im not sure on this^
Better to enable a security pin if you are concerned.
The traditional phone system involvement is annoying.

Are you a robot?

I guess not

”It’s important to maintain control of this phone number."

I strongly feel that this is false.

This is what flatpak brings to the table

Diaspora has private groups. But many downsides.
For example… discovering people, first involves sharing with them.

Be careful that unlimited ( more acurately labeled via the “high speed data” limit) is a widely used practice of false advertising.
Check the throttle speed to see what happens after you run out of data.

You cant just give up. You have to fight it.

Lets say you live in a tribe. Everyone eats the same shit. Everyone does the same work. Everyone feels the same way. Why is it necessary to pinpoint an individual?
Any specimen from the batch is going to tell you what you what you want to know.
