You use something that’s constantly connected. I’m fine with letting another server handle that part without self hosting

To see what happened you need a bot running saving messages.

Just use matrix, it’s good enough to replace IRC

So Nostr actually compares favorably to both since I don’t even know which servers send out by messages to everyone. Also, every single one is IP banned in China already

My Mastodon instance uses a 500 character limit

Also, short form content with just a few sentences per post sucks

Your post could fit on Mastodon

People have to understand email addresses, domains, the DNS system just to decide which email provider to choose. After that they still need to find people to email.

This email thing will never catch on /s

Works on my machine

Posting less is how you kill the whole idea of the fediverse

The hardware communities are not active enough. We need more people who are interested in niche topics

I’ll have to say that I feel like Lemmy is the biggest success since it replaced Reddit for me almost completely except for Google searches

I found it interesting, maybe more related to decentralized media in general than Fediverse

When I post that Americans have higher purchasing power than before the pandemic, my data is downvoted, while personal experiences are upvoted

I want to know this too, how does it work?

Lemmy.world still works

No, buddy, you’re special and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise

A clone no company owns, hosted by volunteers on their own servers. In this corporation-owned world it’s pretty revolutionary

I just checked again, a lot less crypto, only every other post about stacking sats

But on the plus side, a post talking about open source AI text models which is something interesting

I actually like Nostr, except for its user base. They run bots to spam crypto when you post anything

Marx and Engels were German, so the joke is meh

I guess self hosting is the only sure way
