  • I’m just curious as to how you think these are insurmountable problems while every instance in existence today is already managing to navigate these issues.

    The only thing the author is suggesting is to pool the resources that are going to waste copying media posts around the fediverse into a new backend (that means it’s not directly user accessible and presumably subject to the same restrictions as posts right now) so that the cost of media hosting is more distributed between all the fediverse instances instead of having the big ones hogging all the bandwidth of the small ones with memes because some users decided to subscribe to a community on say Lemmy.world.


  • Did you even read the article? It’s not like all the users just get unrestricted access to storage to treat like a google drive, this is a backend thing. This guy is trying to find a solution to all the wasted bandwidth and storage space from sending copies to all the other instances they’re federated with, which is a legimate issue that the instance admins are already dealing with on a daily basis. This will let them pool resources to help lower costs for smaller instances.

    As to the CSAM thing I can only imagine it would be easier for one instance to purge fifty images/restore from a backup and everyone else just have to redo their thumbnails as opposed to all the instances having to purge and restore but that’s just me.










  • I’m in the midst of redoing mine, I’ve been trying to adapt the bullet journaling system to obsidian. I think I’m at a point where I’m mostly satisfied with it for now lol.

    At the top I’ve got a inspirational quote that’s actually written into the file via a… Dataview.js script? Can’t remember off the top of my head. Next i have a tasks view showing any bullets (Tasks add-on with extra checkmarks) from the weekly note along with a list of daily bullets. Then the bottom I have some dataviews showing my recently saved Obsidian articles and any new or modified notes.
