It does - but I’m honestly also still refining that vision as I work on it and I want to have a coherent story and something to show before I show anything to the world. Just what I’m most comfortable with :)

I’d rather ensure that I have something a bit more concrete to show before I “announce” it. First impressions matter a lot. And also, there’s just not a whole lot to show right now and it is not in any kind of usable state so unless someone is truly interested in working with me on this project (with a somewhat similar idea of a vision of where it’s gonna go and all that…), there’s really no use in sharing it.

Great!

I feel the state of the project is still too early to be public (especially the frontend, there’s really almost nothing there yet), but I can invite you to the repo if you have a user on Codeberg? I’d love to talk if you have a Matrix user.

Why the surprise? 😅

I’m working on a new fediverse software but I’m mostly a backend dev. But I have been learning Svelte/Kit to try and write a frontend. Just putting it out there in case you feel inspired to work on something entirely new :)

Not hard to get as in expensive, hard to get as in the amount of training and certifications you need in order to legally own a gun.

Honestly it has a lot of anti-late-stage-capitalism ideas but the core of the show isn’t even really about that. It’s a very good show, I’d recommend it to anyone.

Predicted what?

(Piefed will probably replace Lemmy as the go-to eventually)

I think rather we’ll see more software popping up and diversifying the ecosystem. Then you can pick whichever you prefer. Which is the whole point of the fediverse. I’m currently working on my own implementation. Might take a long while before any alpha version as I’m super busy but I try to do at least a bit of work on it every day.

In general I don’t think I can do story games anymore

Wow, that’s the complete wrong take if you ask me! It sounds like your problems with these games are mostly in the gameplay, not the story? Have you ever played Outer Wilds or The Talos Principle? Unique puzzle games with a great story.

The sequel with Neil deGrasse Tyson is also really good.

It’s not social media that did it. It’s monopolistic, unregulated, greedy, giant tech corporations that made the internet shitty.

I’m a fan of Linux Libertine. Very nice serif font.

For monospace, Inconsolata.

Sans serif… I’m honestly not sure. Haven’t found any that particularly stand out I suppose.

I actually would really love to hear how “right to be forgotten” applies to an email you’ve sent. I mean you can’t force anyone to delete an email you’ve sent to them, so how does right to be forgotten even apply for emails?

The fediverse would work in the same way, I think.

No. In fact, ActivityPub has no general mechanism for even knowing where content has been distributed to. So when you ask your instance to delete something, it can’t actually know what other instances to ask to delete the mirrored content.

Mastodon tries its best by sending deletion requests to all known instances, in the hope that that will reach all instances that have fetched the content. But in fact, instances that are unknown to your own instance could have the content as well, though this is probably a very rare occurrence.

Bottom line: Don’t write anything on the internet that you don’t want publicly displayed. Anyone can save it and then you can’t force them to delete it. That applies to the entire internet. It also applies to the fediverse.

This also presumes mods are, by default, inherently non-biased, held to a standard, and never have vendettas of their own.

Of course mods are not always like that. But if mods are like that, just go to another community. If mods are bad, just leave. On the fediverse, you “vote” with where you participate.

Yea it’s still only a partial solution. Even those feeds could get very active over time (we can hope 😅). The way Piefed implemented feeds is interesting but seems almost overengineered? Sharing feeds could have been done via a simple query parameter I feel like.

Yes, but that doesn’t scale. If there are thousands of comments being submitted constantly, the All feed would just be a new page every time you refresh for the new comments sort. It would be chaotic.

It should instead be based on a recent rate of comments for instance. Much like normal votes but comments instead and not based on the age of the post.

Sort of, but doesn’t it just sort by the latest comment? I.e. any thread would be bumped to the top by a single comment? I might be wrong. But that makes it kind of less than ideal if true.
