Hm ja.. veganes Huhn gibt‘s nicht. Ich nenne das Zeug mittlerweile einfach Erbsen-Fleisch, Weizen-Fleisch, Soja-Fleisch, oder was auch immer die Basis ist. Ist irgendwie akkurater.

Vegane Wurst gibt’s aber! Ist ja nur die Form, nicht das Fleisch.

There was a time when the typical redditor was a geek and weirdo 😅

I see. But won’t it be more like Microblogging and not have any communities like Lemmy? I guess we’ll have to see…

[–] blazarious@mylem.me 1 points 1 year ago

That's a fair point.

[–] blazarious@mylem.me 5 points 1 year ago

Entirely possible, yes.

Okay, if it'll never enable federation then all our discussions are obsolete!

And how will this extinguish the fediverse? We'll still all be here, won't we?

[–] blazarious@mylem.me 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

More people isn't always good. But imagine some organizations and journalists that for whatever reason still are on Twitter can now be persuaded to sign up to Threads. Well, now they're in the fediverse.

And if the content from Threads is overwhelmingly bad we can always defederate and the fediverse still isn't destroyed.

So, how do I picture the extinguish part?

 

…or how do you all picture the endgame of Meta's EEE campaign?

All I see right now is a 10x increase of people in the fediverse and while this may be challenging, isn't it ultimately a good thing?

Yes, people are panicking because Meta is coming for us. They’re taking two opportunities with one strike:

  1. fill the void that Twitter is starting to create
  2. profit from the buzz around the fediverse

At the end of the day, more people in the fediverse is a win in my book. And if it becomes a problem there’s always defederation as a last resort.

Will people come?

 

Because I just realized the app I’m using doesn’t let me set the language.

 

I've been setting up my own instance and I ran into issues with pictrs. I have it running with an S3 backend, so no filesystem involved there, but I just learned it uses sled as an internal key-value store.

I suppose we need to persist that sled data somehow?

How do you all handle this? Any isights appreciated.
