The benefit for you is that you will be in a low traffic instance. All the content you load will be loaded from that instance, not lemmy.world. So for you the content loads faster.
Like, I’m replying to you from lemmygrad.ml, and I’m never actually connecting to lemmy.world, and no content is loaded in real time from Lemmy.world. this comment will be synced back to lemmy.world and then synced out to everyone else that’s subscribed.
But if 90% of people are on Lemmy.world then naturally it’s going to run like ass.
For all we know it’s hosted in an old laptop in someone’s basement right?
Sounds like a good time
Don’t join the largest instances then. Lemmy.world is over loaded and mastodon.social is historically overloaded.
The free market fosters innovation.
The invitation:
Glad I got out when I did. Wish I could convince my employer to do the same.
Yes there is a distinction between webPAGE and webSITE. Which is why I used site and not page. I never said they have the URLs, that was you.
I build and maintain networks for a living, so I know what the network operators do and do not have access to.
As a user of any network, you should be walking around under the assumption that every network is hostile.
Regardless, my point still stands. You should have no expectation of privacy when you don’t control the system your using. Especially these self hosted federated systems. Let alone a public webform where your sharing your thoughts and ideas and other PII.
If you leave a trail of breadcrumbs, you will be found.
Unless the DMs are encrypted using your own keys, your DMs are one SQL query away from being nightly reading material for any instance admin.
That’s the leading privacy concern with these systems. You might think your DMs are private, but unless their encrypted, any DBA can read them. You better hope the Admins of your instance have no voyeuristic intentions.
I’ve noticed this too, it’s not great lol.
“Wants to post on a social media website” “Wants pure privacy on the social media website”
I’m not sure what the issue is here… Did you know that your ISP has a record of every website you’ve ever been to on a server you don’t control and they can look at it whenever they want?
Did you know you leave a record of your device on any network you join, leaving a unique ID behind that can be mapped back to you? This record is stored on severs you don’t control and the operatora can view this record whenever they want?
Did you know that the admins of raddle have access to all your comments and DMs?! And they can read them at any time?!
You’ll be happy with the new version then because it supports in app community links.
I wouldnt use .local as that’s also used by apples Bonjour service if I recall correctly. I use .internal which Google and Facebook currently use for microservice stuff. So the odds it ever becomes a tld are almost null.
My switch to ff coincided with on boarding to Lemmy. Id love to attempt to host my own sync server at some point.
That’s a very specific but relevant tip!
Thanks for the info!
It’s so funny because you can watch the show on the pokemon app but it has the same issue. The seasons are broken up weird, they have weird names. I think they have indigo league and orange islands and that’s it. But it’s not a “streaming service” by any stretch.
I’ll look into jellyfin. I might just try and run it off my PC for now until I have a device I can chuck into my rack.
Haha this comment is keeping it real. That’s a good point. I’ve never looked into a plexshare before. I’ll have to look it up.
I think I salvaged like 6 of them. I’d have to dig them out of a box for a good count.
Huh I’ve never looked into Usenets. Any good learning resources on that? But also, your right about DVDs. I think early seasons of Pokemon are hard to find in physical media these days.
There is! Let me find the script: https://github.com/wescode/lemmy_migrate
