I like your energy and enthusiasm, and I share it quite much (I have my Lemmy server and all 😁πŸ₯³), but not fearing big govt or corpos, say if you can opt out going living in Russia or NK then you'd probably do it, it seems like a no brainer.

As you hint at, we might have to fight crap and stuff, and blocking Facebook is a good preventive defence IMO.

Think centre tiny gang rise up :-) !

TDP is like the maximum so not very reliable when figuring out general power consumption. Stuff hooked up to the internet and not used very often, but always on, needs a low base consumption.

The problem is A) we are all small servers and will be overwhelmed by large instances B) threads, meta, Microsoft(or whoever) have a goal that is contrary to "surfing, meeting up and sharing", its literally exclusively to make money out of it all (cue predatory algorithms). Their sole interest is making money. Only that does interest them. They don't care about anything else, even if they have to pretend to "Love the Fediverse πŸ’–πŸ’œπŸ’™" or "let's try 😘 if you don't like it just stop❀️❀️❀️!", we love LGBT too "πŸ₯³πŸŽ‰β€οΈπŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œ" or whatever.

If you don't see how they are going to do it, worry not, they have tens of thousands of paid people who's sole interest/obligation/job is monetising.

It won't be enough but block that shit right now or we'll be in a worse situation.

I'm sorry but your post just doesn't make sense for me.

It's well written, and there are a lot of good things "everyone" should do, but they are a one man with a 1.000 times us army. We twiddling here and there will just make it easier to do whatever they want.

We need a clear idea and way forward.

Or several, because that will battle harden those ideas, and we'll see which new idea we should follow.

I know you put lot of effort into this post, but I'm sure as hell going to defederate with meta, microsoft, and actually even an eventual enormous Lemmy instance if it's using predatory algorithms.

I'm here to share my knowledge and learn from people who are interested in the same things as I am, see some new stuff, love live laugh a bit with memes. I'm not here to waste my life or generate revenue.

Cheers!

Would you create a community, and if so, what kind?

[–] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I love the idea, especially from a technical standpoint!

How big is the fediverse today? How many posts are there? What kind of algorithms atmre you using to store the results? Do you scan sites and then their connected sites or do you have a premade list?

More technical information please 😊!

Ah thanks! Didn't catch that.

Why use CBC too? Cha-Cha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD, so both an assymetric plus a symmetric stream cipher.

So it seems you got an answer that you are okay with.
