Check out aether.

I really wanted this to be as popular as Lemmy, but it never caught on in a big way.

XMPP is a tried and tested e2ee standard.

There is mention of e2ee voice and video chat on the site.

Monero is king.

Monero bridged to Ergo and mixed with the ergo mixer could be great one day. As it would give Monero access to DeFi if enough people use the mixer this way.

If the Fed Libs want my vote back, they'll have to make good on their promise of electoral reform with the help of the NDP or Bloc before a confidence vote.

Only way to install it with support for port forwarding on Fedora Atomic spins.

Add the rpm from protons website then rpm-ostree install package name.

This is one of the situations where layering packages is appropriate.

The western world starts treating the US the way we treated Germany during WWII. Only problem is the unelected neolib puppets in charge of most of our country that used to exhibit leadership on the global stage.

For anyone struggling to parse the graph as I was: look at the red bars below the photos. The photos are irrelevant from the data.

As a Canadian, please don't come here (unless your reproductive rights/ bodily autonomy are under direct threat)

Sometimes I feel hopeless with our political parties and economy up here and think about moving out of country and then I remember that as a citizen I have a duty and responsibility to remain a voice of reason in my community.

As a US citizen you are afforded real rights that citizens in other countries do not have. For example: In Canada we don't have rights, we have freedoms. Those freedoms can be suspended by the government at any time.

Be the change. Fix your system. Help turn your nation into the example for the global west that it always aspired to.

I picked up Persona 5 Royale during the sale for 30 bucks.

I was a huge fan of P4G on the PSVita.

P5R is so stylish and it does such a great job of speeding up so much of tedium by allowing fast travel to most places.

Everything feels so snappy, the soundtrack is killer, the gameplay is fun. Runs like a dream on the OLEDeck. I've been enjoying taking it slow and getting to know the characters. Just finished the first palace.

 

Aether is a reddit alternative not dissimilar to Lemmy in that it is distributed and open source.

Some advantages to Aether over Lemmy are:

It is entirely decentralized rather than federated giving it superior censorship resistance and smooth horizontal scalability. Each user on the Aether network acts as a node operator allowing other users to connect and view the communities that they subscribe to.

Moderators within each community are elected by, are impeachable by, and their decisions can be individually ignored by the users of each community. All mod actions are public information and, as mentioned, each mod action or moderator can be ignored by each user. This maximizes the accountability of the network and greatly reduces the chances of censorship.

The biggest flaw with Aether is that it is not currently maintained (to my knowledge). With such a massive migration of users to Lemmy and the Fediverse as large, I would love to see an increased interest in decentralized solutions like Aether.

Would it be technically feasible for Aether to join the fediverse through modified Lemmy instances? If so it could act as a silver bullet to enable horizontal scalability of the network at large.

I welcome any discussion on the topic.

Ergo is an eUTXO (extended unspent transaction output) based PoW smart contract platform.

It is significant to the privacy coin community as it features the ErgoMixer, the industries first non-custodial non-interactive coin mixer. It enables mixing any native or bridged token on the network in an entirely trustless way. It can enable any other compatible bridged asset to be mixed and further used in Ergo's smart contracts. (Think about premixed BTC-XMR pairs on a DEX for example.)

ErgoMixer

Ergo already has a community on Lemmy that I hope to see grow and flourish along with this one. https://lemmy.world/c/ergo

Here's to privacy!

 

At the moment there is slim pickings for other communities to join if this instance is chosen by a user to be their home server.

Presumably other instances have to approve linux.community federating with them before their subs can show up? Is it that this instance is new, or is there some other reason. u/nkukard can you chime in?

EDIT: A-ha! I was searching poorly! Once a member of a instance subscribes, it pulls it into that instance for easier discovery. Neat!
