What does it actually cost? I have no basis for a ballpark guess even. I've seen this question asked to a number of admins and haven't seen a direct answer.

It's hard to judge how sustainable a donation based approach is without that info.

Isn't this a case of take your own advice?

Many instances have already defederated lots of stuff. If you feel strongly about that shouldn't you migrate there over asking other instances to do the same thing? Seems like if he wanted to he would have here by now.

All just feel like fediverse problems and IMO the action should be take ~2 weeks off line and then evaluate there all the shit lands and decide. In thedude's shoes, I would have already pulled the plug on this as way to much hassle to get into the middle of. Props to him for not.

Based on betting sites, I see an estimated 83% chance Zuckerberg wins if they do it.

Seems more likely Musk backs out but I don't see those odds being tracked.

I'm pretty worried we will end up with more of an HOA then a democracy.

Not sure we can get the sort of voting going that will attract more then the local busy bodies.

If both a member of Beehaw and a member of lemmy.world are on a community on a third instance (like midwest.social), our comments and posts are invisible to eachother, like the other isn't there

Is that really how it works? It's contrary to my understanding but I can't find that covered in the documentation.

I assumed that the discussion on a post on a 3rd party server would be served by the 3rd party and I would still see comments from beehaw users on that posts.

I see it reported all over that the voice cast is returning but what about the writing staff?

I've never really thought about how it's done on the older generation parts. On the newest it's etched by laser. We had a generation where it was stick on barcode and that was the worst.

Usually it's the date code.

At my company that code would mean 2019 week 1 (first week of jan). We also do a shift number as a 3rd part.

It's also common for the second number to be months.

It's even funnier/worse then I expected.

Jerboa notices that's a link and makes it click able but clicking it opens my default email client instead of anything lemmy.

Roswell that ends well
