Also they used GPT2 and GPT3 which was dumb and said stupid shit, so it was funny.

Now AI is boring.

I agree that defed from lemmygrad hexbear and ml is a plus, but it doesn’t really answer my concern of it being run by a single person

Specific reason for recommending sopuli? I quite like them but isn’t it more of a hobby project run by a single person? As we saw with kbin and feddit.de the single person run instances can disappear quick.

It’s a corporate built frontend for a decentralised FOSS messaging protocol (Matrix) that has activitypub federation

Yes finding the right instance on peertube is a nightmare — and also the general lack of quality content, or subtitling, which makes it as good as useless for deaf people like me.

The difference is signal has millions of users and most people have already maybe heard of it.

Apparently it makes a good RSS feed aggregator if nothing else.

Yes it’s excellent! Also noting for those that aren’t aware: Goodreads is owned by Amazon.

Matrix?

The decentralisation of the fediverse works well.

Ie. taking my previous example of lemmy.ml censoring any criticism of Russian and Chinese imperialism, under instance rule 1 which is basically “no bigotry”.

Well I’m not on lemmy.ml, and if I talk about it in non-lemmy.ml communities, lemmy.ml admins probably won’t bother banning me — that would be too much effort, so if a lemmy.ml user ventures to communities on other instances, they can learn about this censorship.

(sidenote: I wonder if !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works is blocked by ML admins, afaik it isn’t)

You only have the freedom to choose if you have the freedom to be fully informed. If the instance you are on has “unofficial” rules they enforce, and they remove any comments of anyone discussing those “unofficial” rules. Then it is not moderation — but censorship.

Thank god voyager previews image links.

Yeah but there are a few notorious large instances that censor things that aren’t stated in their rules at all.

Like criticising china or russia will get you banned from the ML instances but their rules don’t mention that.

I can’t believe I still have it but I’m going to start actively changing emails on all my old accounts on services I had registered with gmail before I switched.

There are many useful blocklists. But the average user isn’t informed enough to seek them.

Could you tell me more about it? Is it FOSS? How is it funded? Cheers, cool project.

Also fun fact the official apple maps app is mostly based on OSM.
