+1 for the expanse! the story isn't extraordinary but their take on space faring was so good. now all sci-fi looks dumb :( i wish there were more series like that

per oauth spec you get told what is shared. usually it's just your user id (which often is email or username), i haven't seen crazy scopes in the wild in a while

just joining in on the misery. arr-s overpromise and underdeliver, tried for a month and gave up with just jellyfin and qbittorrent web. jellyfin is ok at masking the atrocious file names and directory structure, bless its soul

not 100% related but i think login should be less user friendly

"here take this 512 byte hash and store it and it's you and if you lose it or have it stolen i couldn't care less"

email verification is hard to do right (as said in top reply), oauth is annoying to get set up but more secure and all big providers have fancy recovery and login methods

no oauth? get the hash or go away

bidets

i assume you pee from your dick so does this boil down to a ranking of bodily wastes?

this is misleading and sensationalistic. if emissary implements e2ee, it's not "e2ee for the fediverse", it's " e2ee for emissary users". did mastodon talk about e2ee? did lemmy?

also the MLS-in-activitypub draft proposes for trusted key exchange either " trust the server" (lmao), use a centralized key authority (wow) or have users manually verify their keys out of band (so basically use matrix to assure your chat is encrypted). source: https://swicg.github.io/...

fedi devs need to stop clickbaiting, and fedi users should learn a bit more about their protocol to avoid getting misled this way

you are not proposing a federated amazon, this is just federated ads and/or reviews.

how to process payments? how to ship goods? how to handle refunds? how to handle contestations?

please you can't just make anything federated. this protocol is built for social media and struggles to take over that sphere, we should focus on one thing rather than throwing random stuff at the wall hoping it sticks (cough federated tik tok cough)

thee are only 2 atoms in the universe: hydrogen (74%) and helium (24%). so you're either a Hydrogen, a Helium or have a syndrome

there are plenty of articles about regrets and resources about detransition, those who get shouted down usually try to use ridiculously low regret rates as reasoning to limit access to healthcare. marriage has a 43% regret rate, why isn't your energy spent there instead?

thanks for saying this! i really don't want to victim blame itsfoss for getting traffic spikes but if you cant handle 20MB in one minute (400kbps) of traffic you're doing something really really wrong and you really should look into it, especially if you want to distribute content. crying "dont share our links on mastodon" also sounds like hunting windmills, block the mastodon UA and be done with it, or stop putting images in your link previews for mastodon, or drop link previews completely. a "100 mb DDOS" is laughable at best, nice amplification calculation but that's still 100 megs

be warned that continuwuity phones home by default to fetch its news and feed it to the admin, you may want to turn that off before booting first time

if you're trying to build a chatroom then any chat software goes but if you're trying to build a community you should probably use something searchable and indexed, like real community software

also i find it laughable that users must already be on such platform, by your logic all communities should be mailing lists

while i don't want to throw shade on the developers' intentions, nor have any real proof of what data is being kept, a fetch request bears by minimum the source ip (which can be geolocated) and the fact that the homeserver exists and runs continuwuity.

i'd suggest a matrix channel as alternative, so hosters can opt-in by joining. plus, by leveraging the matrix protocol, such announcements become federated push notifications, meaning they could come from any homeserver (limiting ip logging) and don't imply the continued existence of such deployment, or the software which is being run

even converting such mechanism to an opt-out "auto-join announcements channel" would be more privacy respecting

nice whataboutism, "they should do this instead". oh they do, but you don't care when they do.

the delivery didn't deface anything, if you want to focus on the delivery and once again ignore the message at least be honest. willing or not, messages like this do BP bidding

git send-email

honestly yes you're probably not going to use them a lot, if at all, especially in python

"what is the third gender" your deliberate misunderstanding and simplification of the issue is just bad faith debate. you're proving us that fractions are "syndromes" by using only integers. this is just a display of ignorance and bigotry, it doesn't really paint you as smart as you're trying to appear

in theory? getting rid of paru and friends, manually reviewing the pkgbuild and the source of whatever it is installing

realistically? nothing. the AUR is a glorified repository of build scripts anyone can upload. the script or the package itself can ship malware

the AUR is mostly the same as downloading and running random exes on windows. you should avoid it, make it as manual as possible (forcing you to double check what's happening) and be able to review the installer/package or trust someone who can vouch for its safety

not at all: atproto works very differently. fedi instances "do it all", on atproto pds-es hold content, relays discover and aggregate, appviews show stuff. iirc relays can also implement moderation (such as blocks or bans). right now to my knowledge the only relays are bluesky's and blacksky's (because hosting a relay is very resource intensive)
