What's the weirdest one you've tried? Most challenging? Have you found any really cool defining features in any distro?
For example GoboLinux and NixOS eschew the Linux file hierarchy standard (FHS), and that becomes their defining feature. But many other distros have some other defining feature. Slackware uses tarballs as package management and oldschool init. LFS has you build from nothing. Etc.
What algorithm should I use -- oh shit, I just deflated
What would you have done before the internet?
That is a critical mass thing. Reddit 15 years ago didn't have a thriving pokemon community either. Things grow naturally over time. I think Lemmy is in a good place :)
But, for example, on Reddit there is r/hockey and a sub for each team. On Lemmy those team subs are graveyards, but if you post on c/hockey you might get enough traction to have a conversation. Find the larger community and help grow that first before fracturing to smaller ones.
With Lemmy, there could be multiple /c/ock communities -- one per instance haha
Would likely only work if federated only with other Lemmy instances with the same requirements, but yeah, I could imagine something like that evolving.
So, I'm going to offer a dissenting opinion. Please hear me out before piling on.
The anonymous internet is going to kill the internet. Without verification and attachment back to a real human, eventually the internet will just be flooded with bots, misinformation, and unverifiable information. The dead internet theory.
So, yes, we all worry about "Chinese style social credit scores" or corporate ownership of ID or whatever other dystopian bullshit... But what if you just want to have a site where people can talk to one another and know that they're people that actually have to take responsibility for what they say.
Anyway, I suspect that this will start in isolation. Like when the internet was young and communities were forming with knots of small people... Forums with full verification requirements or similar. Then they will grow once their quality exceeds everything else.
Discuss!
Oh hi, this is me too. Since 1.0alpha ;)
It's too bad we don't have details about the other company involved that they were targeting. Seems like the sort of thing that could rapidly escalated -- blinding all of your competitors birds on purpose. If those birds are in Geosynch, you don't even need to be in the country to do it -- just same longitude, approximately.
Actually kind of an amazing read. I suspect it shall live another life on 3-axis router tables and such for a while. The mechanic is single stroke lettering remain the same
