In Social media, it's #31. Sorry. My bad. But still. It's going to get even higher once the instances stabilize in performance.

No really, it is #31. At least in my Apple App store?

Wow... I mean, I feel like creating 15 users across many instances and just using them at random. I dont want that kind of insight available. Though I probably already gave all that on Reddit. You're welcome AI!!

#31 in App Store. That means Lemmy is going places. Holy shit! (and as I understand, this comment would be fully harvestable by admins)

This! Reuse as much as possible.

So other instances outside the instance your user exist on, has access to this? Which means everyone, as anyone can create an instance?

And how exactly do they gatekeep and what do they gatekeep?

Do you have links to proof?

Could an instance be hosted inside an app? In a container locally on your own machine? Maybe the two could be synced? One instance across all your devices synced?

That would be the safest?

So is there a way to search across instances?

Seriously, this will distance google from usefulness even further. Chatbots already at the jugular of google right now.

Can the big AI companies crawl and harvest lemmy and fediverse?

But you could join whatever server you want, and you'd have access and be able to communicate with any instance?

So what has to remain is certainty that your user credentials won't be stolen and that the uptime is good.

As I wrote in another post, maybe the better alternative is to encapsulate your own instance and sync across your devices. Encapsulate it in a device agnostic container.

Your user would be your own. It would always be up?

Maybe this would also help alleviate the traffic, since these servers (for now without commercialization) are running off of people's good will.

Reading some of the comments here and also pondering the last half day - how much does it require to host an instance yourself?

Doing that: You are almost certain not to have your user data at risk? The server would always be up.

Could an instance not be hosted across devices? Encapsulated by a container that is synced to your other devices?
