323·8 days agoThe use of “self-hosting” is a little confusing here. To be clear, he wasn’t self-hosting his video. It was published on YouTube, and the guidelines and procedures in question are Google’s.
Edit: I’m not defending Google’s actions. It’s just that the title gave the impression that a video he had self-hosted was somehow subject to “community guidelines”, which didn’t make sense.
Edit 2: Ten downvotes in less than an hour, on a clarification comment? Wow. I’m disappointed to see that level of targeted negativity here. What rotten behavior. :(
As Lemmy is federated but not fully decentralised, continuation of communities hosted on a dead instance is not currently possible. (Compare this to Matrix, where a room can carry on even if its original homeserver dies, so long as at least one other homeserver participates in it.)
So that is indeed still a problem here, although not as severe, because I think the posts in those communities will still be available on instances that participated in them. Such communities would be forever frozen, though; carrying on from where they left off would require migrating to (or creating) communities on still-running instances.
Lemmy does allow you to export your own data and import it into another instance. That includes settings, subscriptions, and links to saved posts/comments. So I guess maybe you could save your own posts, export your data, and import it elsewhere to keep links to what you wrote on the dying instance. I have not tested this to be sure.
I haven’t been following Reddit events since I left a couple years ago, but if there have been recent ban waves for bad behaviour, it wouldn’t surprise me to see corresponding upticks in it here.
I wish more of us spoke up against rudeness, confidently incorrect ignorance, combativeness, tribalism, brigading, and other such stuff when it rears its head here. If all of us participated in moderation, I suspect it would be more effective and make our mods’ lives easier.
The sad reality is that while there are a lot of great people on Lemmy, there are also some who use the platform to attack others, stir up conflict, or actively try to undermine the project. Admins are volunteers who deal with the latter group on a constant basis, this takes a mental toll. Please understand why our admins chose to step down, and be kind to the admins on whatever instance you decide to join.
There are also bluetooth adapters that plug directly into those older iPods’ accessory port (the slot on the bottom) instead of the headphone jack.
The main benefit of the one I used was being compact, with no wires. The main drawback was having to remove the adapter to charge the iPod. I guess a model with a USB charging cable might exist.
Yes, that’s part of the ecosystem. :)
I attribute Java’s uptake to a large amount of marketing and support, which led to a massive ecosystem. Even a mediocre language like this one can find success when propped up like that.
and potentially to watch US citizens as well
Anyone who thinks this is not being used on US citizens is incredibly naïve.
At least one of the named routers (RT-AC3100) is supported by OpenWRT, which generally has a better security track record than stock firmware.
The normalisation of constant surveillance makes me want to vomit.
Yep. A bunch of them.
GP’s complaint must have been about Signal.
In the past 5 years of using Matrix, I have received exactly 2 direct spam messages, and seen maybe 5-10 in public rooms. (There have been none in my private chats, of course.) If you’re seeing much more, I guess it must depend on how you use it and what rooms you join.
Matrix is slowly getting there.
I don’t have any reason to think this is particular to Rust. The MIT license is popular because it’s permissive, simple, and well-known. Developers often choose it when they want to maximize a project’s reach.

lane-keep assist, automatic emergency braking (AEB), and blind-spot detection
