Thanks for the detailed reply! The potential complexity (depending on how much you want to do with it) is a major part of why I was asking, both in terms of use and administration.

Despite the challenges that poses and absence of mobile apps, it still sounds great, but definitely something to go in with an idea of what you do and don’t want to do with it.

Why?

Thanks for yours and @JupiterRowland@sh.itjust.works’s deep dive into this!

Thanks!

Who were they there?

Appreciate the example! It’s when handling a DHCP range and the related CIDR notation that I tend to get especially muddled in this area. It certainly doesn’t help that each router’s interface and terminology tends to vary just enough to add uncertainty.

Regardless, the comments here and more focus on this have helped clear some of this up for me.

I think separating them improves the user experience for regular users, which I think counts as a real advantage. As I wrote in the body text:

As-is seeing an indication of a comment for a post only for it to turn out to be a bot is slightly disappointing at best, and mildly confusing at worst when their display has been disabled.

It’s a small detail, but small details add up when it comes to the user experience.

By automated reporting do you mean something like filters on the backend to flag offensive posts per some custom settings?

The pre-seed stage startup is backed by angel investors and NYC accelerator Wolf, which Openvibe attended last year.

Openvibe is available as a free app on iOS and Android, but plans to experiment with a desktop version. The app will later introduce a subscription plan to generate revenue.

Have any services like this managed to develop a sustainable business model, especially after taking on investment?

Does Bluesky? Have they been running marketing? Much of what I’ve seen/heard of it has been more a result of Twitter imploding and people bringing up alternatives than any concerted marketing pushes.

edited for clarity, realized I’d overlooked Threads mention

Does it sometimes seem like commenting in high traffic online spaces feels this way too, not just Reddit?

Have you seen Publii yet? Dunno how well it works on Linux, but there’s a version for Linux as well.

Is this ever noted in any of the documentation, outside of some fine print, with the printer to let someone know that it’s being done? If your product is secretly leaving indicators for anyone aware of the indicators to track your actions in some way, that’s problematic in my opinion.

Given a printer is arguably a lesser issue anymore, but the same idea applies with other tech.

Thanks!

What’s a CLA?

What sets IceShrimp apart from the other Misskey forks in your opinion?

That’s kind of what I was thinking may be the case, but I’m not sure if I’m asking this well enough or if I may be misunderstanding ActivityPub.

It’s not clear to me how, without communication/searching outside of an ActivityPub instance, it would ever find other ActivityPub instances to connect to and communicate with.

The difference that I was thinking of was of recorded videos vs. live streams, where with the former you can watch whenever instead of only when the person is streaming.

When I hosted game servers: Depending on the game, you may have to fix something every few hours. Arma 3 is, by far, the worst. Which really sucks because the games can last really long, and it can be annoying to save and load with the GM tool thing.

Was that a mix of games being more involved and the way their server software was set up, from what you could tell, or…?

Yeah, to clarify I don’t mean organizing/arranging files as a part of maintenance, moreso handling different installs/configs/updating. Sometimes since more folks come around to ask for help it can appear as if it’s all much more involved to maintain than it may otherwise be (with a mix of the right setups and knowledge to deal with any hiccups).
