I got the email too but can’t install from TestFlight.

If apps are native, I think it makes sense. No one watches short videos from PC.

When I decided to try XMPP, I had to do a lot of research to decide which applications I should use for the server and client. I did not experience this in Matrix. And yes, I know Matrix is ​​not stable. I am not against that. It’s just easier to get on board.

If we told two people to use these two software independently, they would start using Matrix much more faster than XMPP. I think this is enough to call it uncomplicated.

Also, would you recommend Snikket server (or Prosody) for 1:1, group calls and screen sharing?

I don’t want to defend Matrix. I agree that it is not stable and lightweight. However, I believe it is simpler than XMPP. Wanna set up a server? Synapse. Need a client? Element. The default softwares are easy for new users to discover.

Also, the fact that Matrix has a single protocol means that in theory all servers and clients can work with each other (Although I know we are far from that at the moment). It is much better than XMPP’s XEPs in terms of simplicity.

It’s not that I don’t like XMPP. I want a stable, encrypted, federated messaging platform. However, in terms of money and motivation, Matrix seems to be closer to that right now.

way less complex

I don’t agree with this.

Huge!

Ensuring that Unable To Decrypt (UTD) bugs never happen. Huge amounts of work has gone into this over the course of the year, especially via complement-crypto as a comprehensive end-to-end-test suite for both matrix-rust-sdk and matrix-js-sdk based Matrix clients. We are finally at the point where UTDs are so rare that most people simply never see them.

Of course not. There is no limit. I just gave it as an example.

I still think it will not explode bandwidth and storage, but I can’t argue because I don’t have any valid evidence :)

The reason I say this is that communities take up a few bytes in the database and if there is no activity (post/comment), they don’t use any bandwidth either.

However, I can’t say anything about the organic /all tab argument. It’s a matter of preference. Kind of funny one.

Money involvement = enshitification

Let fediverse be unprofitable.

@ptz@dubvee.org I have cleaned these and some other bot accounts from my instance. I was ok to open registrations to this point because we were able to get reports for almost every activity and we could easily manage them. But unfortunately Lemmy does not have a regulatory mechanism for votes, so I’ll keep it manual approval until then.

Also it looks like they’re manually creating accounts since we had captcha + email approval in our instance from the beginning. So this means that even with manual approvals, a botnet can be created – just in a delayed manner.

Alright. I’ll check this ASAP.

in 2016, an attempt to overthrow Erdogan and his religious-conservative administration was foiled

It was not a secularist coup. It occurred because of Erdogan’s disagreements with his former Islamist partner, Fethullah Gülen.

You’re right, that’s worse.

Does the receiver instance federate that like object to other instances? If not, it is shit for sure.

About $50 monthly for server, backups, image hosting, mails etc.

You’re right, I was just giving an example though.

I’ve mistyped, I meant message in JSON body :)

This one looks nice. Very detailed.

Looks like they’re recommending object of error code (number) and message.

I wonder if we feed our animals with “vegan food” for a year, would they start to choose that instead of meat or meat based food?
