Not sa far as I know.

Latest URNE album and the new Kataklysm album for me.

I’m not saying they are or aren’t. I’m simply saying that we all know the big media companies go after people at the drop of a hat. They recently tried to get reddit to expose the identities of people discussing piracy over there. To their credit reddit told them no and defended themselves legally. And that’s the issue. The media companies can accuse anyone of anything if it even slightly smells like piracy and the target has to legally defend themselves. This is fine if you’re a multibillion valued company. Not so fine if you’re just some guy who just wanted to run a Lemmy instance out of his own pocket.

I don’t know about you but engaging a lawyer and going to court to defend myself would be a massive financial drain. And to risk that on simply the hope that a court might find in my favour is far too big of a risk. Then add on all the unwanted public exposure, the internet notoriety etc. Fuck that.

That’s a bit naive, knowing what we know about the sharks that run the large media corporations. For your average instance owner, it’s not a question of being found not liable, it’s the fact that you as an ordinary guy with an ordinary life and an ordinary income suddenly have to defend yourself legally with all the exposure and expense that entails, from day one.

Nothing. It’s just 3 communities on dbzero that are blocked and as far as I know, they’re only blocked on .world. There’s no defederation so you as a user signed up to dbzero can still participate in any .world community and any .world user can still interact with communities on dbzero apart from the three named.

Might be worth remembering here that Lemmy instances, including .world are hosted by regular people. Not massive multinational companies worth billions who can engage the best legal talent around.

If Hollywood comes after a Lemmy instance, Holywood have a huge legal team and endless money. The Lemmy instance has some guy. They could quite literally destroy a persons life. With that in mind, I don’t blame any instance owners for erring on the side of taking a stance that won’t put them in the legal firing line.

Also, installation instructions that don’t assume you’re already an expert.

Are all their apps/backend open source? They have a github repo but it’s not very clear what’s open source or if its partial open source or what. I think it’s just their mail app and windows desktop app.

If that is this case, they’re asking their users to have a lot of trust in them.

Ah, OK.

Yunohost installs a whole OS - Debian 11 - so you’d be essentially be flattening the drive.

I self host Ampache and have Sublime Music on my desktop and Substreamer on my Android device.

That was a bit halfhearted. You didn’t use the phrase ‘hive mind’ or anything.

OK, so you can login anonymously. Great.

The real question is; why would you want to, given that the dead bird site is a cesspool of extreme rightwing awfulness? What are you hoping to learn or take from being on there?

A few months ago. They said that hosting companies and other providers were refusing to work with them if they continued with it as a feature.

It’s just too easy to abuse by bad people using it to host very questionable content. Lots of people then moved to ivpn and then they removed it too, for the same reasons.

I think at least some of it is due to his acceptance of Meta’s Threads (should they ever get around to federating). He see’s it as an opportunity, a lot of others see it as letting the wolf through the door.

Note: I’m not arguing either side, I’m just saying that I think that’s what the issue is.

I can’t play games :(

A few years ago I had labyrinthitis and when I got over it I found I couldn’t play games or even watch other people playing games. Something in the way the things move on screen gives me really bad nausea and vertigo, like motion sickness I guess.

TV and cinema is no problem, it’s just games.

100% with AdBlock and LocalCDN on LibreWolf.

I did once, but after the crypto thing, then the trying to sell rights to other people’s content, then finding out how awful Eich is, it’s a ‘no’.

Finally, Joe Pasquale does something funny.
