I don’t get it… Why the many downvotes?

e.g. https://www.projectveritas.com/results-and-impact-2020/

All these destractions tactics are also getting lame.

i guess you’re trying to be funny👍 i’m serious.

i wonder when the instigators #clintons will be investigated…🤔

Here’s a howto https://lemmy.ml/comment/459391

Nowadays doesn’t even make any sense to use servers. … Why not create something better?

i think you might underestimate the problem.

Jami.net (a decentralized messaging app) works p2p. it uses a torrent-like distributed-hashmap to locate the peers at any moment. (The main usability issue for nontechnical users, is that devices on an internal ip address aren’t addressable from outside. This requires (a single point of failure and privacy concern), a turn-server)

They started to incorporate Git for merging chats for the reason that any of set of peers (of a group chat) can be out of reach of another set of peers, i.e. the chat continues on different branches and needs to be merged again later.(this happens in the clients-app, because there is no central server). Jami is aiming at double-digit group sizes… That’s not nearly the size of what Lemmy is handling.

Documentation etc can be found from their github page

Maybe a developer is better suited to answer that question. @nutomic@lemmy.ml i’d assume there’s a difference in load in the backend and load on the frontend.

if you’re a registered user on a server, when you click [Communities], there you can see

• [local] communities - Those created on your server
• [all] communities - Those local and also those already federated to your server

You can subscribe to a community of any server which your server can federate with. The list of connected servers you can find via the /instances link at the bottom of the page.

There’s an easy to use community search tool here https://browse.feddit.de/

If you’ve found a community you like to follow, translate the original URL to a federated URL You do this by putting the community URL of the original server in the search bar; e.g.

(This search functionality is available in the web interface, but not yet available in the Jerboa app)

The result will list the federated URL. A federated URL has the form:
https://<your server>/c/<community-id>@<other server>

Visiting the federated link, and clicking [Subscribe] will make that community be federated to your server from now on. Your subscribed community will now also be listed under the [all] communities listing on your server.

imo, Odysee has better search options than Rumble.

The idea being that when you have the desktop client, you’re actually seeding the video’s onto the network yourself( LBRY.com) i like. But since the odysee website/html-frontend was introduced, the desktop client/seeding technology became way overlooked.

The video streaming performance has become much bettter, but lately it has all kind of commercials built in. I wonder how much is actually still based on the initial ‘torrent’-idea. I wonder what kind of data are they selling, in order to store all the content. Because i don’t believe the initial ‘torrent’ seeding idea by clients is what makes lbry so fast.

Content wise, it is home to quite some content creators which came from YouTube because they were censored. YouTube has a political agenda, and as a result the content there is void of fringe opinion. Most censored information from fringe scientists etc i am able to find on odysee👍

(edit) The amount of nonsense Dutch politics have been giving out about Covid jabs may have been detected more if censorship of critics wasn’t so intrusive. e.g. the minister of healthcare litterally claiming ‘tested to the bone’ and ‘safe and effective’ while the phase 2 and 3 trials were still ongoing🤨And now those same politicians are all about censoring misinformation… The irony.

Of course nothing is stopping…

Except when your account exists on a server which blocks countless servers. A user can’t see which servers are on your home server’s ban list.

I agree. Lemmy Hoste multiple communities on a single instance. This gives room for interaction with people thinking different than you. That’s i.m.o. positive.

I learned In fediverse there’s much ignore lists and exclusion of servers happening. I’d much rather have users personally choose which communities/users not to see than whole servers being excommunicated for them(unless it’s spam servers ofcourse). Excluded Servers clusters(islands) are a breeding ground for mindset that the whole world thinks likewise(because there’s no notion of other servers). In my opinion cancel-culture is detrimental to society. Documentary “The social dilemma” has shown that; eg Facebook which, for add revenue, targets info only to users who are already interested. This breeds anti social/extreme mindsets.
