Yea… I’m gonna wait for that discount lol

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.

That’s pretty obvious. Only if the victims were rich white dudes. That’s when it gets real.

It must mean it’s making a difference, to the point where someone is trying to censor it.

So the mods removed a 48 days old post just all of a sudden?

If you upload to PeerTube it embeds just fine on Lemmy.

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.

Wouldn’t mind it. Imagine going to Lidl and walking out with some groceries and a new server. Amazing.

I use IONOS.

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.
