Una riflessione sui successi e gli insuccessi del progetto feddit.it e le prospettive del lemmyverso e del bloggingverso. E voi che ne pensate?

https://www.informapirata.it/2024/01/14/feddit-it-tutte-le-criticita-e-le-potenzialita-dellalternativa-italiana-a-reddit-tra-bloggingverso-e-fediverso/

shaked_coffee,

Sono d’accordo. Purtroppo è vero che la presenza italiana su Reddit era (ed è) molto inferiore rispetto a quella tedesca o anglofona, e pertanto anche il sottoinsieme di persone che si sono spostate su Lemmy riflette questa proporzione. A questo si aggiunge il fatto come dicevate anche voi che molti degli utenti italiani qui su lemmy parlano anche l’inglese e che spesso vanno a interagire su communità e post in inglese ospitati da altre istanze “più mainstream” (io in primis).

Ma questo è anche un po’ lo spirito del fediverso: le singole istanze non hanno bisogno di perseguire crescite esponenziali (come invece accade nei social centralizzati) perché, per quanto piccole, i loro utenti hanno accesso a tutti i contenuti delle altre istanze “sorelle” (e una crescita lenta è anche più facile da gestire per gli admin volontari, immagino). Personalmente ritengo che la qualità e la quantità dei contenuti su Lemmy (in generale, non solo Feddit) abbia molto da invidiare a quella che c’era e che ancora c’è su Reddit, ma nel mio piccolo faccio il tifo per l’alternativa libera e non mi viene in mente modo migliore per farlo se non da un’istanza come questa. Quindi grazie :)

shaked_coffee,

I kinda agree with the statement that the Matrix “ecosystem” is unstable, but I’ve been looking at it for some time now (It’s more than a year that I’m periodically giving it a try, but without having asked my friends or family to move yet) and what I’ve seen is some slow solid progress. So I’ll probably keep watching (and contribute if possible) its growth until there will be at least a desktop and a mobile client that works flawlessly out of the box, and then proceed to annoying any person with why they should move to Matrix (^_^)

Some non-requested personal opinions about the clients I tried:

  • I think that the desktop/web version of Element is kinda stable, but the android and iOS versions are a big no to me (with this I mean they are not ready to be recommended to non tech-savy people imho).
  • Element X as many others said it’s still in beta, but I see huge potential on it. And I’d say that as soon as they manage to implement onboarding (like registering through the app) and proper “message replies” and threads it could be already pretty stable and usable from everyone.
  • Fluffy Chat last time I tried was reeeally unstable, but it’s been a while and maybe there were good progresses there as well (it must be kept in mind that it’s volunteers-driven and not backed by a company as Element is)
  • Cinny and Fragment seems very interesting too, but haven’t found the time to try them out properly yet.

Slimbook Executive 16 VS Tuxedo InfinityBook 16 Gen 8?

I know this question has been asked many and many times, but a) this kind of things can change with time (bugs may get fixed or appear, new generations can fix hw problems and get new ones, etc.) and b) I didn’t find it on Lemmy yet (but maybe this is just me being bad searching stuff in the fediverse), so here it is once...

shaked_coffee,

That’s what I was starting to think as well, thank you

shaked_coffee,

In the end I gave up with my attempt to self repair the tablet and returned the battery to Amazon. I’ll probably bring it to a Samsung store and ask them what’s wrong with it. But thank you for your reply!

shaked_coffee,

That’s why I didn’t want to use Cloudflare Tunnels, but just Dynamic DNS. I though that they had access to the stuff you transfer only if you use their tunneling feature and for the reasons you said is something I would prefer to avoid.

The thing is that I bought my domain on Infomaniak and most of the self-hosting tutorials I’ve seen recommend Cloudflare. Would you suggest something different?

shaked_coffee,

I’ve seen it mentioned in a bunch of videos and articles, but I didn’t like the idea of Cloudflare scanning all the stuff that is transferred from and to my server. If I opt just for their DNS service and update it through the API they can’t do that, right?

shaked_coffee,

I think that this could be the cleanest solution, could you share the curl command you used to interact with the API? (Of course replacing your actual access token with ** etc.)

shaked_coffee,

EDIT: I just realized that ddclient (that I was already considering to set up ddns with cloudflare) also supports Infomaniak directly! (I don’t know how before making this post I didn’t saw it 😅) So I’ll probably go for that way in order to cut out Cloudflare from the equation and rely on one external company less. Thank you :)

shaked_coffee,

Of course I find this attempt from Microsoft to make you stick on Edge (together with all the other ones) pretty ridicolous, But after having to use Win11 + Edge for a bunch of days instead of my usual OS and Browser I really don’t understand why people who doesn’t give a shit about their privacy and the welfare of the internet (because if you use Google Chrome this must be your case) just don’t use Edge. It’s basically chrome but with more cool features and a much better integration with the OS!

So I guess in this case maybe it was not an attempt to make user stick with Edge, but just the Edge developers being annoyed by the fact that all what they do is not apreciated 😂

shaked_coffee,

Yes but now the same situation that happened with the old IE is happening with Chrome, so I guess a little bit of competition wouldn’t be a bad thing

shaked_coffee,

I would love to, but I really can’t figure out how to spin it up on our server… is an ARM server where we are currently using the traefik reverse proxy to expose a couple of services in docker compose stacks.

If you have a Focalboard docker compose file to share (even if it’s using a different reverse proxy and not traefik) it would be super useful for me :)

shaked_coffee,

I haven’t actually tried it since I’m still a beginner in selfhosting, but I was planning to buy a dedicated hardware for my homeland and my main two choices were the new Raspberry Pi 5 or some mini-PC like the one in this videoI don’t know if it could be similar to what you are looking for…

shaked_coffee,

That’s very true!

Thanks to the whole blackout thing and the many amazing apps that came to Lemmy (like Sync that I’m using rn and loving), Lemmy is now good enough to replace Reddit for the new content (at least in my opinion)

But Reddit is not (or at least not only) an “what’s happening now” social network like Twitter and there is a huge amount of old content on it that can still really useful. So I guess that, in the best scenario, we’ll have Reddit and Lemmy cohexist and complement each other :)

shaked_coffee,

Italy joins the club of messing up the billions 🙌

For us a billion is “un miliardo” and a trillion is “un bilione”

shaked_coffee,

Anche io ho un Pixel! Grazie per avermelo fatto presente, controllerò

shaked_coffee,

Molto interessante! Sai a chi si appoggiano per la copertura? E (non so se ti è mai capitato di doverlo usare) com’è il servizio clienti?

shaked_coffee,

Guarda fino due anni fa ti avrei definito “paranoico” per la cosa di evitare WindTre, se non fosse che appunto circa un paio di anni fa è capitato che non funzionasse più internet a casa (proprio con Wind) e in contemporanea neanche la rete mobile di mio padre (anch’essa Wind) quindi, come dire, mi sono un po’ ricreduto 😂

shaked_coffee,

THANK YOU A LOT for the review! I was thinking about buying a Slimbook Executive (still undecided between 14” and 16” models) but I am a bit scared because it’s the first Linux laptop I’d buy (previously I was installing Linux myself on major brand hardware) and the amount of well written reviews I found online is not that big as I’m used to with major brands.

Just a couple of questions, if you have time to answer them:

  1. what do you mean with “it gets gaming laptop hot”? Like that you just feel is warmer while charging or that it becomes uncomfortable to type on it / hold it on your lap? (Laptop getting uncomfortably hot is the main downside of the previous MSI laptop I owned, that’s why I’m worrying about it)
  2. did you ever felt you would have need a discrete GPU? Or did the integrated intel one always carried all the tasks you were doing as expected?
