Except for the part where they support fascism by openly defending the CCP and Chinese propaganda

One of my top 50 favorite memes of all time hahahahaha
There’s a niche type of CPU cooler you can get that uses just thermal mass, e.g. thermal pipes from your CPU spreader to finned metal on your case or directly into your case. They can’t provide as much cooling as liquid but it has zero moving parts.
I tried to get one of these cases/coolers for my home server and just could NOT find reasonably priced options or much availability. It’s kind of absurd, there should be a larger market for them.
I didn’t want to have to worry about dust build up and fans dying myself.
From my limited experience usually it’s because they implode from internal drama. To be human is to be lazy, and most people can’t get past that.
I’ll never understand why so many people seem to willingly buy houses under an HOA tyranny
An actual ecosystem would keep the tick population down though, but also if you don’t have deer regularly roaming through your front yard you should be fine too
What I’d like to know is why they’re developing Lemmy if they’re like, actively Chinese agents. No Chinese citizen would even be allowed to use Lemmy so it’s baffling, and the Chinese government would not want a social media site that’s uncontrollable by the state.
If they aren’t Chinese agents I’m completely flummoxed as to how this community formed that’s so incredibly pro china?
The leftists I know are under no impression that the Chinese government isn’t under a brutal authoritarian rule, i think this is a petty novel strain. Why does being a Marxist-leninisy necessitate defending and denying state atrocities?
How is this so fucking accurate on how it feels like they actually brainstorm new Pokemon
There can only be so many people with impressive achievements in a world of 8 billion people that deserves to be recorded in the history books. And then you should think about the millions and millions of people lost to history and prehistory (pre writing) period that have left this world with barely a trace of even the city that they and thousands of their community occupied. So many people completely and totally lost to time.
When I think about it like that, I realize it’s my ego making me feel bad for not “accomplishing” something when there’s so few of us who get to alter the thread of civilization.
Does it really spread out the load? Every instance will want to connect to the larger instances and replicate their data, or the larger instances could hug the smaller ones to death if a popular post gets noticed. I am spitballing, but from what I understand more instances means inducing larger and larger loads on everyone.
I suspect/hope most of reddits infra costs mostly come from massive processes they run to consume and correlate user data into sellable data, or the massive moderator tools using full-text search they probably use to hunt down undesirables.
I feel like just serving up text based information shouldn’t be that intensive if done right. But I definitely don’t have the experience to say so for a program handling millions of requests.
If Lemmy gets big enough, google will work on any customized scraping of the fediverse they need to add in, because it’ll be in their best interest. They might already be able to since Lemmy isn’t private for non-logged in users.
Use Tor
Then use Tor if you’re truly scared
Good luck building a performant version.
Although I’ve always wondered why someone hasn’t built a Tor version of Lemmy/mastodon yet… imagining no home instance control, you’re just donating hosting to a truly decentralized website that nobody controls but anyone can post to. It would be the ultimate dissent tool.
That’s how it’s always going to work especially politically, and that’s not necessarily a negative in a decentralized model like Lemmy.
I think those users who live under oppressive governments should be used to using tools like Tor and accounts with a proton email to interact on the internet.
You don’t think a country that actively censors the internet, monitors and jails people who post “wrong” memes or speech, and indefinitely jails minorities couldn’t be considered fascist?
People are labeled fascists here and on reddit for much much less.
