This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.

TGRush,

Even if they are coming, I don‘t think any of us which are already here will switch back. They should‘ve thought of this before they broke their platform.

Anyone else dismayed by the limited success and adoption of Odysee (YT alternative) when it comes to Reddit alternatives?

So YouTube has a lot of problems, there's no denying that. Frivolous and selective (not to mention automated) copyright enforcement, bureaucratic termination appeal system, COPPA idiocy, the whole clusterfuck that is monetization, etc?...

TGRush,

I still prefer PeerTube.

(it's part of the Fediverse. We're also part of the Fediverse here on Kbin and Lemmy.)

Will it ever be possible for kbin to federate with PeerTube?

I know this is a silly question, especially as I'm currently focused on local-only feeds, but there's just one part of the Fediverse I wish would get more love: PeerTube. While there aren't a lot of people actively looking for alternative video hosts outside the big guys (Twitch, YouTube, Dailymotion, etc.), it would be nice to...

TGRush,

We can already view PeerTube channels in the "Microblogging" tab, as that's the way PeerTube federates to other services.

At least in theory that should be the case

TGRush,

NixOS can become quite complex, so maybe stay away from it until you know more about how to manage your system ;)

The other options you've mentioned here are good, but EndeavourOS is based on Arch, so that may be contradictory to what you've said earlier.

TGRush,

It isn't just a fork, its a collection of tools and patches around wine tailored for a specific purpose.

DXVK, VKD3D and other components aren't part of Wine or Proton's Wine builds, for example. They're extra tools used on-top of Wine.

TGRush,

as a matter of fact, I was able to create a fresh Google account, registered from Germany, without any of my data linked, and then I just used a US VPN.

I'm surprised at how easy it can be.

TGRush,

RSS never fails me.

TGRush,

That's what ActivityPub has planned.

Well, that is kind of what ActivityPub is already allowing us to do.

TGRush,

Popular pieces of software that's part of the fediverse usually give you either:

  1. Export options - manual export options intended for GDPR-Compliance and peace of mind
  2. Account Move options - Mastodon is best known for this, as you can migrate your profile (but not your posts and followers) to another instance. Anyone which then visits your old page will have it blurred out, linking to your new one.

#2 could be expanded in the case of Kbin and Lemmy to also include subscribed communities/magazines, settings and some other things where Federation allows for it.

TGRush,

Removing data from platforms participating in the Fediverse using ActivityPub is a bit hard due to how (most) software is made.

To keep everything fast and network issues low, content is cached on your instance when it's viewed, given that a community or person has been subscribed to/followed by at least one user.

This means that when you delete something, smaller instances where your profile is less frequently visited or cache is less frequently updated, that content might still reside.

Though, unless an instance administrator specifically WANTS to keep a copy of something, you shouldn't have to worry as within usually around 24 hours, your post deletion will have federated.

If you're curious about privacy, feel free to ask more questions here or contact me privately.

TGRush,

man am I glad that my real name is so generic that you don't find me unless you specifically search for keywords associated with what I do (e.g "Codeberg" or "Mastodon")

it's truly great to have the same name as somebody famous' brother.

TGRush,

For context

TGRush,

How far does "interacted with" go for you?

as in, does clicking already count as interaction or would you need to comment or vote?

if it's just viewing the content, then this might be done using a simple userScript as Kbin already remembers which threads you've viewed on the homepage.

TGRush,

There's work being done on .

You should be able to find it without too much effort.

TGRush,

Apparently there was an instance which focused on hosting furry content, including NSFW, which frequently appeared on other instance's home pages.

But I can't report first-hand, I've only ever heard other people complain about this.

TGRush,

Porter Robinson - Look at the Sky

Question similar to "name the first song that XYZ" or "What is your favourite song" so that's an easy pick

TGRush,

Probably not the most unique take, but I still really love Minecraft's soundtrack (and other C418 tracks for that matter).

TGRush,

That likely won't happen, as the entire point is to essentially show a metaphorical middle-finger to /u/spez.

TGRush,

I'm surprised how everyone has this issue but me.

Yeah there's lots of reddit-related content, but not at this scale

TGRush,

Either Minecraft or Sonic the Hedgehog 3 would take that title for me

Both of those are games I've played LOTS of when I was younger (well, I am still quite young) which provided me with lots of fun and I just kind of come back to playing them periodically.

Either because there is some cool new community project I want to try or because I just miss playing the games.

TGRush,

To be entirely fair with Kbin:

From Kbin.pub: "NOTICE: This is a very early beta version."

TGRush,

I've also made sure there's an archive on https://archive.is/qD5b6

I wasn't the first one to archive here, but I still want to share for everyone interested.

TGRush,

Let's paraphrase to "CLI applications are quite cumbersome to use under Flatpak as per the current implementation".

Unless you set up your own aliases, you'll have to write out commands like flatpak run ..., and if you don't know the package name yet you'll need to run flatpak list --app first as well

I hope that in the future, Flatpak gets some improvements for exporting CLI utilities into the user's environment.

TGRush,

I don't really see Fedora maintainting a patched version of audacity as a fault of Flatpak, though.

Flathub is designed to allow developers to publish their own software in the way they intended. So Flathub and Flatpak are doing exactly what they're designed to do

TGRush,

it won't be automatically defederated, but you won't have a cache built up, meaning that some older posts in communities you visit, as well as older comments won't show up at first.

Though, unless you also want to implement a ruleset and moderate the instance (in addition to doing legal stuff), I would advise keeping it closed to yourself.
