I got the email too but can’t install from TestFlight.

If apps are native, I think it makes sense. No one watches short videos from PC.

[–] iso@lemy.lol 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I will. I was asking from CPU power and price perspective though.

When I decided to try XMPP, I had to do a lot of research to decide which applications I should use for the server and client. I did not experience this in Matrix. And yes, I know Matrix is ​​not stable. I am not against that. It's just easier to get on board.

If we told two people to use these two software independently, they would start using Matrix much more faster than XMPP. I think this is enough to call it uncomplicated.

Also, would you recommend Snikket server (or Prosody) for 1:1, group calls and screen sharing?

I don't want to defend Matrix. I agree that it is not stable and lightweight. However, I believe it is simpler than XMPP. Wanna set up a server? Synapse. Need a client? Element. The default softwares are easy for new users to discover.

Also, the fact that Matrix has a single protocol means that in theory all servers and clients can work with each other (Although I know we are far from that at the moment). It is much better than XMPP's XEPs in terms of simplicity.

It's not that I don't like XMPP. I want a stable, encrypted, federated messaging platform. However, in terms of money and motivation, Matrix seems to be closer to that right now.

way less complex

I don't agree with this.

Huge!

Ensuring that Unable To Decrypt (UTD) bugs never happen. Huge amounts of work has gone into this over the course of the year, especially via complement-crypto as a comprehensive end-to-end-test suite for both matrix-rust-sdk and matrix-js-sdk based Matrix clients. We are finally at the point where UTDs are so rare that most people simply never see them.

[–] iso@lemy.lol 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Of course not. There is no limit. I just gave it as an example.

[–] iso@lemy.lol 2 points 9 months ago

I still think it will not explode bandwidth and storage, but I can't argue because I don't have any valid evidence :)

The reason I say this is that communities take up a few bytes in the database and if there is no activity (post/comment), they don't use any bandwidth either.

However, I can't say anything about the organic /all tab argument. It's a matter of preference. Kind of funny one.

I need to register on bsky.app to log in. Where is the federation in this?

[–] iso@lemy.lol 5 points 10 months ago

Thx I just downloaded the stable one 🙏

Then I guess you're really doing everything from scratch. I just tried stable beta and it looks really good. There are some small things, but I guess that's the reason why it's beta :) Yes, I was using it for moderation, but I’m gonna happily wait.

I just realized there are Markdown buttons too :)

I need to

  • encrypt JSON payload (not just sign)
  • not share private key
  • verify the payload is generated with the shared public key and RSA fitting all of these.

As I've only made auth with JWT so far, I'm not sure. If I use RSA, I guess I have to put the encrypted text in the body.

Do you think it can be used? Any other suggestions?

I want to keep instance light and safe as possible and I don't want to let someone ruin it.

Right now I can't see if my users posts/comments are removed or reported on other instances. Is there a way to do it? Currently, if there is a problem in a different instance, I am not aware of it, except that the admin or mods in that instance will notify me. I believe this is a huge problem.

We were using 4 vCPU, 8 RAM x86 server for 15.7€.

Now we're using 8 vCPU, 16 RAM ARM server for 14.4€!

We literally doubled the specs for cheaper price! I don't understand why an ARM server is this cheap, but I don't really care. It's working great right now.

Only disadvantage of this is Photon and Alexandrite UIs are not working. Not researched yet but they're probably not compatible with ARM. But I'll find a way because I like Alexandrite and using it a lot lately.

Also I removed Cloudflare proxy. Although they offer an excellent service for free, I believe they're not fitting in decentralized nature of fediverse.

Thanks to;

I shared a post about my instance.

Then I hit the cross-post button, chose the community, language and then submitted the form. Although new post created, there is no "cross-posted to" area on both original or target post.

For example here, you can see which communities the post cross-posted to. What am I doing wrong?

Update: looks like both posts should have same URL for crosspost to work. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3827

One small step for Lemmy, one big step for us :) While I don't aim to be a big instance, it's exciting that people are using it 🙂 Thanks everyone for this!

On this occasion, I would like to ask a little question. What do you think, if we make the instance humor/meme focused instead of general-purpose? I think the hostname is very appropriate. I've also read that Lemmy developers prefer more focused instances over general-purpose. So IDK what do you think??

Hey everyone! I'm trying to add lemy name with amogus and pepe to the canvas.

I'm adding amogus now on 550, 920. After that I will add lemy.lol to the right of it. I appreciate any help friends 🙏 I am drawing the draft right now.
