I don’t necessarily think it’s too late. There will be a niche that someone/some entity will settle into for us privacy minded folk. Hopefully that niche gets beefy processors and extra ram fr fr

Tacos, Enchiladas, Papusa’s, Gorditas, Tamales, etc. I’m very spoiled where Im at.
Big time memories here. Yes books on tape were a big thing for people stuck to cars. My dad had a bunch of them.
I like the federation for interacting with people in a way that’s similar to previous social media sites, but without the bloat and advertising.
It’s also nice to not have to deal with the extreme political rhetoric unless I specifically look for it, such as HexBear or .ML instances.
My mastodon is mostly queer/alternative folk and I share my music and exploits online diary style.
Lemmy is mostly how I used Reddit, but I’m less of a lurker here.
Maker tube (Peertube) is cool because I can watch, make, or share videos like YouTube used to be before the commercialization.
TanukiTunes (FunkWhale) is awesome because I can upload my own music or listen to music without having to fork over data, and I can donate/purchase music directly through the profile’s preferred method instead of Spotify hellscape.
I’ll eventually get a Pixelfed for my photography exploits. I occasionally use Mastodon to share cool pics I find.
All in all, Federation is my net home. Love it
Saved, thanks chief!
https://tanukitunes.com/channels/supersynthiamusic. I just uploaded, thanks for the encouragement!
Saved, thanks buddy
I’m a 4chan anon and have been for a long time. It’s a Wild West situation still due to the anon culture. A LOT OF STUFF ON THERE IS EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE AND WRONG. Oddly enough I’ve interacted with some awesome anons and that’s what keeps me going back. Highly DONT recommend anyone check the site out.
Reddit used to be fucking dope when I joined in 2012. I was a Digg enjoyer in my youth and Reddit was even better for me. Over time the culture changed, not necessarily a bad thing either just different. Helped me a lot actually become a better more inclusive human. The Admins however have made a string of terrible decisions and I can no longer support the site. They hung the redditors out to dry and I’m so thankful for Lemmy for giving us a link aggregator with a comment section sans the bullshit.
Hey I’m a musician/creator actually! I’m attempting to be the change I wish to see! I haven’t shared anything here because I treat Lemmy as more discussion oriented but on Mastodon I’ve shared my first Peertube upload.
I just refuse to be like those “pick me” people who are only on a platform in hopes of building their “brand”. I truly want to make friends here and if they happen to like my tunes when I occasionally share them that’s fucking dope for me. I’m seeing quite a few people like me too who are using the federation as more than the grind for fame. Overtime we will get the pick me’s, but I think we will get a lot of decent artists in it for artistry sake
That sounds delicious not gonna lie.
I avoid meat now due to its links to climate change so I’ve been on a journey food wise. Dal Makhani is just so decadent it made me so glad that I was born period. It’s a black lentil curry that is so fucking good i will devour a bowl in no time flat
If it would scale to enterprise level that’s a game changer. It would lead to Linux just clobbering the pc market space.
I’m forced into Office suite at my work and I have to fight it.
That absolutely astounds me but your right. Especially crazy considering at any point something could happen to your internet then you’re fucked.
That’s great to hear. It’s a nice little program suite for at home, and I hope one day it can compete against Google/Microsoft’s offerings
Features that are not so great: “This app redirects to data gathering services” stuff like that
I’m gonna have to try this out. Looping is such a useful way to make songs
So these noname boxes are good for making a hardware firewall/network?
It’s a valid point, but unfortunately your non bullshit options are limited to replacing the OS with something like Graphene or Lineage.
The powers that be REALLY want your data.
I’ll tell you why I’m pretty liberal with my block button and cool with my echo chamber. There are people out there who want me dead for liking my same sex. My trans friends are being legislated against / threatened with violence not because of science or health, but because of feelings and religion. I have family that emigrated legally being exposed to horrific racism and the threat of violence.
Do you support human rights? Or do you support death to the “other” ? Makes my choices easy. Not to mention I prefer actual truth to my information sources, not tabloid fluff designed to keep me enraged.
