I'm interested in that. Does it take a lot of resources (ram, cpu, disk ) ?

Kev Quirk, one of the admins of Fosstodon (a Mastodon instance), destroys Meta in an email exchange.
It's not about standards. It's about how "Meta" is going to use the data they'll collect to manipulate and advertise to you in insidious ways. They don't want to cooperate with the Fediverse, they want to control it. Those are the issues and the source of negativity.
On Kbin, hover the mouse over the "more" menu under the post/replies and click on "copy URL to fediverse", that will send you to the original instance.
You can even read en reply to Kbin or Lemmy thread from Mastodon. I tested it myself and it's awesome.
Make it a Soviet space suit from the Apollo era. That would cause every politician in the US to shit bricks.
What they failed to mention too was that some communities (IIRC, it was r/mildlyinteresting) approved NSFW content that was only risqué pictures of vegetables, like fruits shaped like genitalia.
This article is just a rewording of u/Spez propaganda. It wouldn't surprise me if Ziff-Davis, owners of PCMag, are investors on Reddit. Condé Nast certainly is, which explain why yesterdays article on Ars-Technica shares the same propagandistic tones.
It worries me that all those communities moving to Discord will one day suffer though all this all over again, once Discord enshittifies and drives them out. Relying on a closed, proprietary and centralized service for user-generated content is a bad idea, as we all learned already.
It stopped receiving posts or comments from other instances like lemmy.world. Their reasoning is that they want a highly moderated "safe" instance, but since moderation tools are still very primitive, they decided to defederate, it was easier than trying to moderate posts from the big instances. They said they will re-federate once mod tools improve.
That's what killed Digg, more than the interface change.

This thread inspired me to stop procrastinating and deploy my own instance. On a brand new Debian 12 install (an LXC container in Proxmox), the process is absolutely simple and painless.
