So, much of what you stated makes my head spin, maybe it’s due to the fact that it’s early but I highly doubt that’s the reason.

I would argue that’s centralisation. Instances are inherently centralised, they own the user identity, relationships and data. A user “migration” which isn’t really a migration it’s an alt account on another server, if that server is blocking or is blocked then that users social graph can be significantly impacted. There’s no way to really migrate their content.

The login wall is set by the user not by Bluesky. It’s a privacy setting

How can I contact you?

How do we keep track of the project and support it?

[–] damon@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Anyone can request bans. Bluesky didn’t ban anyone. If you think the EU couldn’t come down on admins & servers in the EU you’re wrong

[–] damon@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Hilarious at all of the uninformed comments. They didn’t take down any accounts and two nothing not even federation prevents this. I know many of you like to play tough online but in the real world where governments have significant influence even outside of their jurisdictions people have fear. Governments have easily resources to turn peoples lives upside down. There’s nothing stoping Trump nor the EU from submitting requests and threads to any fedi admin users. Just because other servers could be spent up means little to nothing if large server and multiple servers are shutdown due to the government. That destroys people’s access, content and social graphs, the primary reason they’re using socials to begin with

This has long existed. It’s an Open Social Web client called SoraSns

[–] damon@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I get what you lot are getting at but my objection is this, at least when it comes to the Mastodon part of the Fediverse it gets advertised as the nicest social experiences. Mastodon not the Fediverse has a moat on civility, some of the most nasty experiences I’ve seen people have is on fedi. That creates a very different expectation and thus people don’t want to hear “that’s the internet for you”. If it wasn’t marketed as such then I’d completely agree with the points being made.

Can you share the proposal? ActivityPods is something else. https://activitypods.org/

[–] damon@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago

Can you site your sources?

[–] damon@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Also, it’s so toxic yet he’s using the account still and bridged his fediverse account. If I encountered next level toxicity that’s not what I’d be doing

NFL Draft (lemmy.world)
 

Man it has come so quickly. Do any of you keep up either the pre-draft content? What sources do you use for NFL content?

 

Just wondering if you guys and the mods think it would be a good idea to have a thread for free agency moves and discussion?

 

I was thinking how people are upset at Remake as they feel it deviates too much from og. The creators have said that it will remain true to the original but maybe they weren't referring to the ideas but to the core themes of og. Seeing Sephiroth introduced so early in FF7R, the whispers, different worlds etc. It got me thinking about what Sephiroth said at the Temple of the Ancients. He said "It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury... What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha ha ha. And at the center of that injury, will be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with all the energy of the Planet, I will become a new life form, a new existence.Melding with the Planet... I will cease to exist as I am now... Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every soul." Remember he is in-between alive/dead as he has not be absorbed by the lifestream. The planet uses that to heal itself. If he casts Meteor he kills two birds with one stone. He kills people and mortally wounds the planet. When the planet goes to heal itself he will absorb the life energy. The worlds merging benefits him as maybe it takes two planets worth of life energy to become a god.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/10462412 Q&A on ActivityPods and Its Integration with Memory for the Lemmy Community**

Q1: What is ActivityPods and How Does It Relate to Memory?

A1: ActivityPods is a framework that combines ActivityPub, a decentralised social networking protocol, with Solid Pods, personal online data stores. It allows for unified data management and control across various platforms. Memory, built upon ActivityPods, leverages this framework to offer users a more integrated, secure, and user-controlled experience.

Q2: I'm New to the Fediverse. How Does ActivityPods Enhance My Experience?

A2: For newcomers, ActivityPods offers a simplified yet powerful way to engage with the Fediverse. Instead of managing multiple accounts on different platforms (like Mastodon, Pixelfed), you have one centralised profile and data store (Pod). This means easier management of your digital identity and activities across various platforms.

Q3: I'm a Current Fedizen. Why Should I Consider Using Memory?

A3: As an existing Fediverse user, you'll appreciate the enhanced data control and portability that Memory offers. Your data is stored in your own Pod, giving you full control over it. Plus, you can interact with different Fediverse platforms using a single account, streamlining your social media experience.

Q4: For Fediverse Admins/Mods, What Are the Benefits of ActivityPods?

A4: Admins and moderators will find that ActivityPods simplifies user management and enhances security. Since users control their own data in Pods, there's less burden on the platform for data storage and protection. It also opens up new possibilities for cross-platform moderation and community engagement.

Q5: As a Fediverse Developer, How Can I Utilise ActivityPods in My Projects?

A5: Developers can harness ActivityPods to create more user-centric and interoperable applications. It supports semantic web standards for data, ensuring compatibility across different platforms. This means you can develop apps that seamlessly integrate with various parts of the Fediverse, enhancing the overall ecosystem.

Q6: Will My Username and Identity Be Consistent Across Platforms with ActivityPods?

A6: Yes, ActivityPods aims to provide a consistent username and identity across different platforms. While the specifics can vary based on implementation, the general idea is to have a unified digital presence in the Fediverse, making your interactions more cohesive.

Q7: How Does ActivityPods Ensure My Data Privacy and Security?

A7: Your data is stored in Solid Pods, which you have full control over. You can set permissions for who accesses your data and how it's used. This decentralised approach to data storage means enhanced privacy and security, as your information isn't held in a central server controlled by a single entity.

Q8: Can I Move My Existing Fediverse Data to Memory?

A8: The portability feature of ActivityPods should, in theory, allow you to move your existing data to Memory. However, this process might depend on the specific platforms you're currently using and their compatibility with ActivityPods.

Q9: Is Memory with ActivityPods Suitable for Non-Technical Users?

A9: Absolutely! One of the goals of Memory built on ActivityPods is to make decentralised social networking accessible and user-friendly. Even if you're not technically inclined, you can enjoy a streamlined and secure social media experience.

Q10: How Can I Get Started with Memory and ActivityPods?

A10: Getting started is as simple as signing up for a Memory account. From there, you'll be guided through setting up your Pod and connecting with various platforms in the Fediverse. The process is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly.
