As an instance owner I have defederated preemptively from threads. I take the same logic as ‘dont do a deal with the devil’ or ‘dont negotiate with terrorists’. Sure maybe you get lucky and win some but the odds are stacked against you. Instead I am more interested in cultivating slowly what lemmy is as a platform without some companies influence. We are doing ok right now. Ae are slowly growing right now. The only reason they are interested in us is because they see the potential. We dont need them to foster that potential. Lets focus on doing this on our own. For better or worse, at least we can say we did it our way for what we ultimately believed in if we stand on our own and do it.

And as an aside. I dont need a seconder to agree with me or tell me this is the right decision. I have done enough and seen enough in my life to make this call on my own and stand by that decision. Its not relevant to me if anyone agrees with it.

Some of these are impossible to solve though. I still dont know if the correct answer to ‘is this a traffic light’ includes the pole the lights hang off or just the lights part and sometimes like 1 pixel is in one of the squares and Im not sure if that counts as if you should click the square or not. I never get like a ‘you got it right’ confirmation after so I have never learned the correct answer. Unclear how the machine learned it when I cant and its supposed to be learning from me.

Sorry man. I try to keep it running but didnt anticipate the vps hoster having an outage middle of a backup.

Yes email works: [email protected]

You can also text a google voip number +1 617 383-7634 if you live in the US for free.

There is also matrix chat if you are one of those people. Its basically all lemmy admins though on there. However I am on the lemmy matrix chat.

Edit: I also added the voip number to whatsapp so if outside the US you can use whatsapp with the same number for free.

Let me know of you need any other guides.

Lots of bugs that have been filed but still many that have not. I log a bug about once a month.

Yes obviously there is a problem here exactly like the reddit to lemmy problem. Just another obstacle but thats okay. Probably it is solvable.

I run a lemmy server and nobody pays anything to use it. It a public service by me for anyone.

Just because some company hasnt figured out how to do it doesnt mean something cannot exist for the good of the public run by members of the public.

Im not interested in conforming to imposed problems personally. Im interested in building resilient systems. That was why we invented technology as humans to begin with. Otherwise whats the point.

Just googled this also but similar issue to freetube? Just an app to the same service if I understand correctly?

Yeah no way Im paying for youtube. Totally bizarre concept to me.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Information on wikis can get out of date if nobody updates it. Probably just needs someone to refresh it a bit.
