You can unlock the bootloader of almost any phone in the EU.

Now, there will be literally no custom firmware for it, but its still possible.

That’s why I said small ones, they don’t crawl the entire network.

There is the freeourfeeds one coming soon.

If bsky goes out of business and shuts down their servers, will these continue to function?

Yes, but there will be far less people since everyone’s on bsky.social. Kinda like mastodon.social.

Does bsky still have any control at all over moderation?

Great question! Bluesky has individual moderation services you can subscribe to, and these hide/label posts for you.
bsky has no control over moderation if you are not on their servers, and you are not subscribed to their moderation service.

There’s a good few small ones.

It can work without relays anyway, an appview can crawl PDSes directly.

So, bluesky works differently to fedi.

A PDS stores your posts/comments/likes/blocks/articles/whatever. These all get crawled and saved to a relay.
An appview connects to a relay and sorts through all the posts, and indexes them.
They handle all the interactions, rather than passing messages between servers.

Thats completely untrue :) .

app.wafrn.net is a separate app that connects to bluesky, atproto.africa is an alternate relay, deer.social is an alt appview.

You can use bluesky without relying on bluesky now.

Sure, but I don’t see why that would push people to use piefed specifically, since lemm.ee’s shutdown didn’t have anything to do with the lemmy software.

nothing that I’m aware of.

Popping up?

I was trying something on lemmy a while ago and it required an @context.

While I’m sure that would let me see the article, mastodon probably wouldn’t handle it well.

Also: bunker blocks me 100% of the time on individual articles.

Running curl https://blenderdumbass.org/activitypub/account/blenderdumbass -H "Accept: application/activity+json" twice in a row outputs some bunkerweb anti-spam stuff.

Did something change since this was posted?
I can look it up properly on mastodon.
You have to be signed in to fetch accounts on mastodon, is that the problem?

Are you using any framework to build the site? There’s a few libraries for activitypub.

An obsecure fediverse thing made a setting to replace the phrase “artificial intelligence” with ai, and its working pretty well.

The ui is good, yes, but lemmy.world itself is pretty problematic.

Don’t get me wrong, if you use it, its no problem, but its not the place to direct newcomers.

FEP-ef61.

All the images disappear, since they are just links on remote instances.

A copy of all the accounts, comms, posts and comments stay on any instance around to recive them, but they are not fetchable.

Because of federation, that doesn’t matter.

lemmy.zip is good for not having too many defeds.

Try defed.xyz.

if you go to /instances on any server it shows what they are connected to and blocking, e.g., lemm.ee/instances
