Is their shift key broken?

Furthermore, this blog post has outdated information and many of their problems with Matrix are fundamental for federated protocols. Good luck removing an email sent to another server, for example. JSON form is very well defined.

I can agree with the problem of DAG complexity building up, sure, but that is a tradeoff.

lieuwex,

I think they imply that they eat no meat for more than one day in a week.

Those companies aren’t polluting for fun, are they? If nobody buys their products, no pollution is done.

Of course, a valid counterargument is that buying alternatives is too expensive (or non-existent, which most likely also has to do with price). And then the valid recourse is politics, subsidising alternatives, or in my opinion the better choice: making polluting products more expensive (by means of carbon tax or cap and trade).

lieuwex,

Well, it’s not called fediverse specifically in the case of Matrix. But yeah, it is a federated alternative to Discord.

lieuwex,

I think the problem was that they use a bot at the discord side, which can only react a specific emoji once.

lieuwex,

You don’t know how to use it? Or how it works behind the scenes?

lieuwex,

Beeper has some more tight integrations with the bridges made by tulir, like showing bridge health.

The affiliate link hijacking was not opt-in. How could anything remotely like this be accepted in a privacy focused browser?

When Firefox had the mr robot extension incident everybody was (righfuly so) mad, but that was way less damaging than altering users’ intent.

lieuwex,

hijacking affiliate codes is unethical and should be stopped but don’t actually affect me in any way.

I mean, alright. But you could say “I don’t care” about any infraction of freedom and/or trust. I trust software to not modify my intent, any software that does so without asking can not be trusted in any way.

lieuwex,

You can still rent movies via Google Play, for cheaper in today’s money than then, it seems.

ITT: left = progressive and right = conservative

lieuwex,

I find it so ironic that the comment above you is literally saying that being progressive means challenging what you [think you] know, but you are being downvoted by (I assume) people who call themselves progressive, without any discussion.

lieuwex,

In what sense was it not an actual effort? Just because it quickly slid into non-marxism doesn’t say anything about the initial idea of the revolutionaries. Bakunin predicted exactly what would happen with Marxism, and it did every time.

If you are against an authoritarian state, the only viable way to communism is to skip the dictatorship part directly and just have anarchism.

lieuwex,

Beeper is a paid Matrix server that neatly integrates with many other chat services using a custom GUI specifically designed for integration with third party apps.

lieuwex,

You know Lemmy was created by a tankie? (mstdn.social/?)

lieuwex,
