but even if you wanted to run that, you cant because they wont release the software or interact with foreign relays.

they dont even let you choose to grab the 4.8tb which is <10% of my home storage

thats kind of on the admins though.

definitely a pitfall for users joining a shitty instance

some instances pre-subscribe to new servers/communities across the verse using bots to 'pre-load' the /all/new for new users to be able to see locally to subscribe to

theres almost nothing decentralized about bluesky

mahn kbin is dead. long live mbin. at least use more recent stats

i just wish theyd stop calling themselves a federating platform when they have yet to prove that.

ha, ok. still kinda smells like a giant ol, single big tech to me. primary components still operated by a single board with monetary goals in mind..

the king is dead. long live the king vibes

i think their point is if you want to comment make a google account and comment.. or dont.

personally, it boggles the mind why anyone would want to do that.

be the change you want to see. offer alternatives to subs pissed about over moderation, ads and bot activity. some instances still let you create your own communities, like mine https://moist.catsweat.com

id go a step further and say you need to draw a sub to a specific community. its hard moving users though when reddit actually attempts to prevent it by banning you for trying.

A firehose relay takes TB's of storage

which is similar nonsense which ActivityPub has with replicating whole datasets everywhere.. cept its one company controlling the whole shebang. its a failure of design.

 

Worm's brain mapped and replicated digitally to control obstacle-avoiding robot.

 

my unpopular opinion is that they are a waste of time and effort.

 

it is regulated by many the same groups who utilize the system, and so it is inherently corrupt.

 
 
 

U.S. presidents cannot be prosecuted for selling pardons or assassinating political rivals through SEAL Team Six, personal Trump lawyer John Sauer argued Tuesday.

 

maybe youll appreciate my low quality gif efforts

 

ive been using kodi (xbmc was better moniker) since google killed sagetv. i recall attempting plex, but it seemed to lack some open/extensibility (its been awhile).

i have a side project i want to make as a modular plugin generating a cable layout with original air orders and networks/channels... kodi seems most optimal, but ill admit its been a long while since i looked at plex.

so why plex over kodi?

 

you ever encounter a schmuk holding on to some ancient piece of software (usually through some bankruptcy acq), licensing it out prolly making $100/yr instead of releasing to the community?

wth is up these guys?
