I use Lemmy and PeerTube. Host a version of both myself. I use Loops a little as well and will probably pick up Pixelfed at some point.

Bluesky doesn’t work if the IP gets blocked in Turkey, but with Mastodon, you would have to ban every single IP from every Mastodon instance and potentially all other IPs on the Fediverse.

Let’s say Turkey blocks mastodon.social. Now people in Turkey can’t access Mastodon.social under normal circumstances, but they can still access fosstodon.org, mstdn.social etc. and access the content from Mastodon.social through those other sites.

Only issue could be media uploaded to Mastodon.social, that’s blocked, unless it has been cached by the website you use.

A medium ranged laptop can be rather expensive and how would you deal with upgrades or a dead drive?

I’m just used to the “/s” for when something is written sarcastically.

/s?

There’s Mastodon and a ton of others.

10 GB RAM, 500 GB SSD

That doesn’t sound cheap though and it would become more expensive over time, right?

If only there was a decentralised alternative, that was more or less immune to this… LOL

Also DMs always go through Bluesky themselves.

What do you suggest? It’s only intended for a few users, but I’d still like to have the most features available to the users.

You could try getting your hands on an OVH dedicated server: https://eco.ovhcloud.com/en-ie/

Can’t recognise that, but unfortunate you have had such an experience with them.

A nice read. I have the same opinion of the so called “tech journalists” here in Denmark. It’s crazy how little they research or know about the subject they write about.

Of course it’s a privilege, but the “beauty standard” can be different throughout the world. So your privilege may vary.

Thanks for letting me know. It also looked like the channel was just a mirror and not official.

I could make a comment more like this one: https://lemmy.wtf/comment/12426812, but in the format you want.

I first learned about “Nicole” when I received this message through the contact form on PeerTube.wtf

https://peertube.wtf/c/beyorkisan/videos

The person would setup live streams on PeerTube, showing the same clip on a loop, of the supposedly “Nicole”.

I have this list that I try to keep up to date: https://lemmy.wtf/post/15810205

I run Funkwhale at music.peertube.wtf. Not using it for that much though 😁

No. Posts are chronological.
