So damn based. Makes me NOT wanna pirate their games. Hell, I’d even purchase even if I wouldn’t play it (if I could rn, but currently I’ve got hefty cat veterinary bills to pay).

Edit: OH MATE! THEY’RE THE POSTAL STUDIO! Goddamn I played it so damn much in my early teens. Goddamn I gotta pay my bills faster!

Almost like an “intentional and kinda aggressive lib takeover”. I wouldn’t put it past the admins to try monetizing their users at some point.

Almost, it was autocorrector changing stuff on its own and me being too sleepy to have noticed. For some reason Oriya is a word for it, but Krita isn’t.

It was dumb autocorrector moment, I did mean Krita’s Kiki indeed, thanks for the heads up :')

Based Konqi! Best FOSS mascot alongside Krita 's Kiki!

Edit: Fixed autocorrect’s mischief on Krita’s name

Time to learn some c++, it’s a good cause to help with

You’re implying they have any. Faith isn’t a requirement nowadays

Jerboa believers w again

Ooohhh that’s new to me, definitely a cool possibility. One more app to host on my wishlist

Some fetishes are best kept hidden.

It’d be really nice if a peertube instance was easier to setup individually and had built-in donation support. Some non-mainstream folks would probably appreciate the option for a more cozy and intimate platform they could set up as they please.

Firefox sync is really neat as well, though. I like not needing to configure Firefox for each system I use when I can have everything sync’ed. I know Mozilla ain’t the greatest but they’re fine enough for my daily usage.

If I need full privacy I can go Librewolf or Tor browser.

I’ve been using it for years and can’t live without it anymore. It’s too goddamn useful.

That really synthetises why I dislike microblogging so much: It’s a bunch of people throwing small-talk and rage bait everywhere, all the time.

Considering a lot of people are really bad at conservation in every possible way, it also makes sense why microblogging is so much more popular than forum-like platforms.

To be honest, having good frontends for accessing the fediverse on mobile devices isn’t really a waste of time, as it helps introducing the fediverse to more people. It’s also more convenient for some users, I prefer to access Lemmy through Jerboa for example.

But there are always possibilities to increase compatibility and ease of use between the diverse ActivityPub platforms, there could be something like “templating interfaces” for different content formats, for example. I think it’s mostly a matter of time and adoption, the more users something has, the more developers we can have, who’ll be interested in making things more accessible and frictionless.

I’ll still try it with Jerboa, but it worked really well through the default UI (accessing your instance directly through the browser, as in feddit.nl/c/techlore@neat.tube for example)

Damn, that’s neat! Gonna follow Nick’s channel (the linux experiment) from here.

edit: Okay, that worked really well. It shows on Lemmy as !thelinuxexperiment_channel@tilvids.com

For me, it depends heavily on how they do it.

• Will it be FOSS?
• Will of adhere to the ActivePub standard and play nice in not trying to push it around to suit their needs alone?
• Will it be honest about how much and which data they collect, and give users control on how much they want to share?
• Are they good about not forcing their users on an unknowable algorithm?

There’s too many factors to decide on a whim. Not all companies are wholly evil like Meta, Microsoft and Elon’s enterprises, but they’re all for-profit, and we must always be wary. I’m willing to give Tumblr’s owner the benefit of the doubt for now.

Fully agreed. That’s why I said “at most” because that’s the worst I’d tolerate, but I still think upvoting is already enough.
