yeah the linux videos were when I first noticed their lack of research, I always suspected it, but the linux videos made it obvious. Linus did absolutely NO research and put no critical thinking in those videos whatsoever

no way, you're telling me that lmg spreads misinformation? who could've guessed /s
paraphrasing Linus Torvalds: "talk is cheap, show your actions" (original: "talk is cheap, show me the code")
How about cactus? it's technically designed for comments on a blog (I'm using it on escapebigtech.info for example), but it allows you to use any matrix room and if you set it up to use a different matrix room every time it loads the page it will work perfectly for your usecase.
Please keep in mind that if you decide to adopt it, Cactus can only exist if you help it exist, if you can afford it and you get value from it, I encourage you to support the developers through donations. Embrace the Value4Value principle!
google didn't come up with passkeys. It's an idea that originated from the FIDO Alliance (of which google is A MEMBER).
Xmpp is far from death. Just because many started to use matrix instead doesn’t mean it’s dead. Even though matrix is a Ressource and performance nightmare much more so than xmpp will ever be.
How is matrix a performance nightmare? been running a matrix server for years with almost no issues. I guess the only exception was the few times I ran out of hdd space, but that's it.
Xmpp is a an official Standard.unlikr things like matrix.
What's an official standard? Matrix is a protocol just like xmpp and the specs are public, just like with xmpp.
Matrix is a nightmare to selfhost, too.
It's literally as easy as running a docker container and editing a yaml file, at least for synapse.
people don't just use discord for private communication, and that's what should be searchable. also, you do realize that discord doesn't feature any encryption and some people can read your "private" messages, right?
Matrix is the ultimate alternative to Discord! It's a FOSS protocol, which has numerous server and client implementations available—much like the ActivityPub protocol.
definitely agree, but it shouldn't be just funds for server costs, also funds that go towards the developers of lemmy. if we want lemmy to improve, this needs to become the developer's primary full-time job, and the only way to do that is to have a much more substantial amount of funds coming their way each month.
Oh you're right I'm sorry, this is not the video I thought it was. I thought it was the video from a few days ago when he was talking about what happened to Brandon Jackson!
I hate humanity sometimes, why would they send death threats? Just don't use their engine; this is the way you actually make a change -- switch to something else, threatening people does not help you prove your point. I hate their new pricing changes too, but death threats are never warranted
