7·5 小时前I was not prepared, however, to find absolutely no evidence.
Hold up, hold up.
Here are plenty of studies - https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=attention+span+social+media
11·9 小时前It’s complicated.
You could federate with millions of instances if the people using them are not doing very much. But a handful of instances could theoretically overwhelm the whole network if they had malicious bots spamming like crazy.
The instance that hosts a community is responsible for sending copies of everything to all following instances, so most of the load is on those instances that host lots of popular communities. All other instances just need to be powerful enough to keep up with what they receive, which is 100x less work.
So even more important than spreading users out among instances, is spreading communities out among instances. Communities cause most of the load.
It doesn’t matter, Threads has crippled their ActivityPub implementation so badly that I’ve never once seen a post from a threads user. Meta gave up on the idea, effectively.
92·1 天前No, it’s legit. Elena has been tooting and peertubing about the fedi and her self hosting journey for over a year.
2·1 天前Very weird. It’d be hard to ignore the reflex to curl up and instead put your feet down.
You could probably do something similar with your instance, like
https://piefed.ca/communities?search=%25s. Any big instance is going to have 99% of communities already added.
11·2 天前When the characters are talking about something and say “oh this is like that time when…” and a flashback scene which is just copy and pasted from old footage is used. Then they do this 5 more times in the episode. So annoying and cheap.
Yep https://ngrok.com/ is not affiliated with Musk at all. Their ‘sponsorship’ is that they provide me with a VPN service for free which they normally charge $10 per month for. @birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zone
Yes I expect it will be a while before client apps add it.
The author has been set as a bot, too. That is a very old feature so it should show up everywhere.
Don’t worry, you’re on PieFed where we flag stuff like this. It’s the Lemmy users who are getting played.
Don’t you see that by running a LLM and impersonating a real person you are being deceptive and decrease trust?
2·3 天前That’s something the piefed.world admins need to do.
The author makes some pretty strong claims about Mossad involvement.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(protocol)#Beginning–2018
matrix was created by Amdocs in 2014 and it wasn’t until 3 years later that it spun off to a separate company.
Amdocs was founded in 1983 in Israel but since ~2000 has been a huge multinational and their current HQ is in USA. I was not able to find anything other than conspiracy blogs that link Amdocs with Mossad and in 2000 an FBI investigation turned up nothing - https://www.nytimes.com/2000/05/06/us/israeli-spy-inquiry-finds-nothing-officials-say.html
There has been a ton of water under the bridge since then so it’s probably just a normal soulless corp with no specific ideology or agenda other than money.
In some places it’s fairly common. Check out this network of 257 cooperatives in Spain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondragon_Corporation
Yes, that’s normal especially if you have been offline for a while - there will be a backlog that is sent quickly.
Every vote on every post and comment generates a new POST to /inbox, so there are a lot of them. PieFed batches votes up into a single POST but Lemmy sends them individually.
Thing is, what is ‘best’ depends on the criteria you apply. If one of them is “allows US govt snooping” or “allows US govt to cut you off whenever” then none of Google’s stuff is ‘the best’.
Nope!
