This thread inspired me to stop procrastinating and deploy my own instance. On a brand new Debian 12 install (an LXC container in Proxmox), the process is absolutely simple and painless.

I'm interested in that. Does it take a lot of resources (ram, cpu, disk ) ?

Aaaaand... It's gone...

It's not about standards. It's about how "Meta" is going to use the data they'll collect to manipulate and advertise to you in insidious ways. They don't want to cooperate with the Fediverse, they want to control it. Those are the issues and the source of negativity.

What they failed to mention too was that some communities (IIRC, it was r/mildlyinteresting) approved NSFW content that was only risqué pictures of vegetables, like fruits shaped like genitalia.

This article is just a rewording of u/Spez propaganda. It wouldn't surprise me if Ziff-Davis, owners of PCMag, are investors on Reddit. Condé Nast certainly is, which explain why yesterdays article on Ars-Technica shares the same propagandistic tones.

It worries me that all those communities moving to Discord will one day suffer though all this all over again, once Discord enshittifies and drives them out. Relying on a closed, proprietary and centralized service for user-generated content is a bad idea, as we all learned already.

They're trying for an unified interface for desktop, Steam Deck and phone clients. While I agree that toggles are less optimal for a mouse driven interface, they're much better for touch screens or gamepads.

Naah. This is (in his POV) excelent. He can just fire an e-mail at 3:00AM saying: "Everyone from Boulder will have to check in to the SF office by tomorrow. If you fail to do so, I'll assume you abandoned work and is no longer employed at Twitter".

What a POS...
