Falst

Lots of options here TBH and I haven’t put much thought into it. Providing a service by running and managing software updates, migrations etc…, is one. MongoDB Atlas and Confluent Cloud are good examples of what I had in mind.

Why do people hate the “as a service” model?

The “as a service” business model is interesting. It may be a good funding path for mastodon, lemmy devs etc…

I see. I don’t know much about authorized fetch, I’ll have to investigate a bit (I’m able to follow the linked account from mastodon however).

I was able to find greg_channel@flipboard.video on this instance for example, a wild guess was that maybe lemmy expects peertube « communities » to have the « channel » string in the name but it’s unlikely 😂

Tried to follow the dot_social@flipboard.video channel from Lemmy but it doesn’t show up.

Shouldn’t it contain the « channel » string in the name ? :/

I don’t know how I’d feel about following users from Lemmy TBH. It’d feel like trying to compete with Mastodon or other microblogging platforms and I’m not sure we need it in this space.

I’d find it interesting to have a unique identity for services in the fediverse instead.
