off YT

so… physicists and fanfic writers, yeah :p

Ideally on a platform similar to Gmail in its decentralized nature

Really? This is the key to understanding that you don’t even know what you’re talking about.

Gotta be physicists or fanfic writers. I can not imagine other better options.

Is that why I can no longer go from a web search (eg.: DDG, Ecosia) or forum link to StackOverflow without going through three CF captchas? If AI had not killed SO for me before, this does.

So it’s “You get off Google but not me! And keep subsidizing me!”?

It’s about 15% more understandable, but still, the same crap I expect by default from that kind of person.

Trusting humans (to any extent) is quite vastly different than trusting corporations, to be honest. But if that’s your jingle, you can always do the work with a bulk tagger / gallery assembler. No AI, nor environment killing, needed.

But not Youtube. Which is Google.

Curious.

I’m done with Google! Watch me rant on Google’s Youtube! Earns me money!

So… yeah.

Why are we giving neonazis attention, again?

Have you tried hiring a couple humans? They’re much better than AI. And you help your local (physical or virtual) economy!

Plex has paywalled my server!

Skill issue tbh.

Platform.

Optional.

It’s on us (all of us).

Apparently.

Posting media.

Fediverse.

Yes.

Shittiest post of the week in the Fedivere, up there ↑.

If you are going to be this shitty, dismissive and misinformative, you can head back to Twitter.

The only task of a DNS server is (or should be) to tell you how to get to a resource you’re looking for by name. So, the only thing that is going to be reallistically affected is your (initial) connection times. And – since this is c/selfhosted – if you are setting a decent DNS cache in your local network, that should be even less of an issue.

The only borderline scenario that I could see feasible, since this is c/selfhosted , is that some software you are setting up that requires nanosecond DNS resolution or somesuch sillyness is going to fail or report false errors. But why would you even do that?

I didn’t think about this, but they’re a French company, so maybe they could do it on the French instance?

…Actually it would make more sense yeah and it would help raise awareness of other issues by the sidelines, given European servers are also being made subject to jerky stuff.

Oh? What instance, or rather, what instance country, would you prefer?

Why? There are awesome communities there. Also Firefox, but they’ve long since fallen below “awesome”.

You can just unblock it temporarily.

Or connect from an account in another instance (or directly from an account in .ml).

Just connect directly from a .ml account or from an instance where .ml is not blocked. That’s the beauty of the Fediverse: you can reach someone for the useful stuff they do, not not-reach them because people do not like the neighbourhood where they are established.

This tbh.

I don’t understand why is this not he standard for Lemmy and the Fediverse. We got here, among other things, to get away from the kind of crap enabled by JS-first web.

The attack surface yes, but not the attack volume. No matter if the app is containerized or native, it has access to the data that it has to operate to. That’s literally part of computer nature.

But a containerized app, assuming the container service itself is kept up to date, has less hooks to break into other stuff than a native app does. For starters, a native app can read everything that’s world-readable, which in a shared system might be lots of stuff but in a containerized app might be quite minimal.
