It's a lot for an average donor, though. "Huge" is not in relationship to the project's needs. It's in relationship to what the donor thinks is a lot of money or not.

How do you find someone on Instagram if you are not an Instagram user?

How do you find something on Mazda Forum if you are on Reddit?

How you find something on AVForums if you are on AVS Forum?

The fediverse has way, way, way more in common with the Internet of 2005 than it does with the Internet of 2025. You have to act more like it's 20 years ago.

Pixelfed not a centralized service. It's a web engine. It's something that lets you host your own photo sharing website. If you want to syndicate stuff from someone else's website, you need to find it on their website first. Fediverse websites just let you do the syndicating by automated request.

To initiate the syndication request, you take the post/user's original URL, paste it into your website's search bar, and then hit enter. It will request and fetch that content, creating a local copy for you. From there, you can follow the person who originally posted it, creating an auto-syndication relationship.

You think the Conservatives have any interest in mounting a credible response to Trump? Milhouse is way more Danielle Smith than he is Doug Ford. He's just itching lick Trump's boots.

I've been using Wonderdraft. It's resource heavy for my little laptop, but it's easy to use.

True. But we are not the open source community. And the fediverse is not inherently open source by nature. ActivityPub is designed to be used by anyone.

"internet thing from 20 years ago was smaller than big, VC backed social media giant from today. Therefore, thing that was defacto standard 20 years ago was never relevant" is a hell of a take

Oh heeelllllllllll no. You think the RAs are going to have a good time when the profs are wizards? You'll be treated as worse than useless.

Single topic forums are still doing ok out there on the wider Internet. Create more well moderated, single-topic, federated forums, and then promote those specifically to users who care about those topics.

Don't sell Lemmy to end users. Lemmy is a solution for admins. Sell the specific websites to end users.

Misskey's probably the most polished feeling, though under the hood it's apparently a total mess.

Well, go do something about the Nazis and people will stop talking about them. If you want a feed to the world outside of your head, thay means dealing what what everyone else is talking about.

You can always just go jerk off in the shower and STFU about it

There are those out there that just auto-downvote the Examiner because Tim Bousquet has the gal to talk back to political leaders.

There are many cases of authoritarians claiming labels that so not reflect their actions or goals, yes.
