There is no need to talk about an imaginary version of IPFS. GNUnet already exists. You can add that to the list of actually superior technologies that long predates IPFS.
As I mentioned, IPFS is nothing but very basic tech that got overhyped to junior/uninformed developers, and crypto scam victims.
Besides being overhyped basic tech where way more useful and practical solutions existed for decades (Freenet existed since year 2000 btw, and Tahoe-LAFS since 2007), there is nothing private about IPFS. This is a dangerous message to purport.
IPFS is as practically useful as NFTs. No wonder the two crowds connected well!
iroh is an attempt to create a useful and practical IPFS. But none of the bigger practical features is implemented yet. And the design itself doesn’t appear to be finalized. I’m willing to give iroh
a chance, although the close proximity to the IPFS crowd doesn’t fill one with confidence.
Defederation questions/requests should be made in private, at least initially. That is to avoid turning an instance, which may temporarily not be actively administered/moderated, into a hotbed of illegal posting.
As it stands, any concern troll can turn a random small instance, which may not have an admin around for two days or three, into a hotbed of illegal or potentially-illegal activity, simply by bringing attention to it with a public defederation request.
Even with the presumption of genuine concern, the effect and end result will be the same.
Not a good move. That instance had almost no content before the defederation trolls gave it publicity. You just made the age old mistake of feeding the trolls. And they will come back for more, and more, and more…
Great original retort there. Not part of “the lot” I had in mind in my previous comment at all.
if 9 people are fine sitting at a table with a Nazi, you have 10 nazis
Good thing there is no table involved.
both sides
Actually, if you read carefully, you will find that my arguments are against both sides, where the sides are the Stasi and McCarthyists.
That is if my argument was ideological. But it wasn’t. It was a technical and practical answer where I consider(ed) whatever ideologies supposedly involved irrelevant.
Monitoring instances and gouging their supposed collective thought, and making decisions based on that in an attempt to appease the masses, will make the job of general purpose instance admins unattainable.
It would be a very effective way for the likes of Reddit to fuck with the Fediverse, actually.
Weekly instance defederation talk loaded with emotional/psychological manipulation, moral grandstanding, and why not, some bullying.
“table with a Nazi” analogies. Linking the Paradox of tolerance wikipedia page for the 345636556th time. The lot.
This may work with instances that like their Stasi or McCarthyist wanna be agents (a.k.a. users) keeping their eyes out for baddies.
For general purpose instances, this will be a great way to make them quit. A desirable outcome for some. I’m not one of them. So, I, and hopefully others, am willing to take the hit and speak out, and state things that some admins may want to state, but don’t feel comfortable doing so publicly.
A general purpose instance with no claimed “safe space” offering should only be burdened with instance-level defederation talk when another instance is behaving badly at a technical level, or when its admins are actively involved in, or not actively trying to prevent, spam, brigading, repeat copyright infringement, and stuff like that.
Bad thoughts expressed in text form by individual users shouldn’t be ground for such talk, and to create a foray over such an inactive instance is quite self-indulging.
If anything, maybe a couple of previous defederation decisions were taken in haste, and should be reconsidered!
If you’re looking for a “safe” instance, there are a couple that should suit you. One of them was already recommended to you.
There is the option to upgrade with the sanitization commit reverted of course.
Sort by “best” is coming to Lemmy, in case you didn’t know.
Your aggressive tone is predictably inappropriate considering your failure at applying simple logic. You would only have a partial excuse if you’re 11y/o or something.
There is f-droid the app store, and f-droid.org
’s main repo. See, it’s not that hard.
just because they have an app that allows you to add other repos doesn’t mean those other repos are a part of f-droid
And that app is called… get it?
Because those other repos are not f-droid repos
Repos made to work in the f-droid app are not f-droid repos… wow
Is the f-droid.org
’s archive repo not an f-droid repo, too. lol.
Please tell me you’re not an adult!
The thing is, you started on the right track:
Sync is not open source and Fdroid only allows open source.
Here, you are on the right. And you could have followed up later by simply pointing out that “Will it be released to F-Droid” usually means “Will it be on f-droid.org
’s FOSS-only main repo”, but you decided to rant some weird incoherent shit, and insisted on dying on a hell of straws instead!

All trending communities’ icons are shown. So the fix appears to be working.
Thank you.
The codec is basic, uses decades-old tech, and was trivially REed.
Lemmy instance choice does not check out ;)
and for testing you get a wackload of SBCs and Bluetooth chips and test that
I asked because I wasn’t aware of any consumer buds supporting Opus. I wasn’t aware of PineBuds, thank you for mentioning them.
keep in mind that it’s hard to get real numbers on LDAC because decoding is proprietary
I used to think the same. But as it turns out, a decoder exists. Maybe some people don’t want anyone to know about it to keep the myths alive ;)
EDIT: Also, as a golden rule, whenever anyone sees the words High-Res in an audio context, they should immediately realize that they are being bullshitted.
Because the audiophile is broke, and will have to listen to some music on a lowly device, but the craving for some placebo is still there.
EDIT: btw, the bitrate is missing a
k
in your command 😉
