No, I’m not sure of that. And the idea that it’s just a scam is what’s bugging me.

That’s my feeling as well, but… really? Randal Schwartz is hoping for me to follow him back?! The guy is a legend, I’m no one (literally - Ninguém means “no one” in portuguese).

As @[email protected] said, I can’t see a way for it to be nefarious except if it is some new kind of spam. But Randal wouldn’t exactly fit in “new people joining the platform without really understanding exactly how following people and following hashtags on mastodon is different than how it worked on Twitter or Instagram.”

Bah! I’ll just leave them there until they get tired of my boring conversations. 😁

I try to minimize as much as possible what I have to install… I’m sure fail2ban would do what I want, but then I wouldn’t have learned anything.

NOSTR clients?

Hum!..

Didn’t know that.

It will maybe come with time like @[email protected] said…

O saw that post fly by in the distance some time ago (it’s from Fri, 22 November 2024), but only skimmed through it because it was to long for that moment. It still is, so I’ve added it to my “read it later when you dare” app.

On one hand, maybe Christine Lemmer-Webber agrees with me in the sense that ATProto might end up being somewhat decentralized. The DID problem could perhaps be circumvented. On the other hand, here’s a quote from the text that I did like:

When you build architecture that in theory anyone can participate in, but the barrier to entry is so high so that only those with the highest number of resources can participate, then you’ve still built a walled garden. – Morgan Lemmer-Webber, (summarizing things succinctly in our household over breakfast)

The quote might argue against my assumption that just having the possibility of owning a (fediverse) server might entice enough people to participate in the ecosystem… just like email, I guess.

Again: didn’t read the full article. Only tldred it and presumed the rest.

Maybe, I don’t know. I’m not familiar with how ATProto works. But the ATProto is not very “decentralized”, is it? Or is it just a case of not many people caring to link their instances to ATProto servers?

Maybe the problem I described earlier?

Also, curation of a collection is not so easy on lemmy - links roth, loose interest, get debunked…

I whish I could have a “folder” on my bookmarks curated by my team at work, another with my family, follow the interests of my significant other(s) - as long as they want to share them with me, of course…

It lacks the Firefox bookmarks integration, I guess… :-)

That said, I foresee that all of those that now host a shinny mastodon or lemmy instance would not be as many - plain command line, no visuals, boring server stuff is a lot less sexy. But those could just link their instances to a server (they could host themselves as well, of course).

Maybe this is already happening and I fail to recognize it?.. How do you host a lemmy instance, for instance? Aren’t there “services” supporting your instance?.. I honestly don’t know.

See above (sorry, should have replied to your post, had I not get confused with the fact that later posts appear above earlier ones).

Quite the opposite…

Usenet was decentralized. Email is decentralized.

Boa, agora já só falta trazerem cá o papa de novo para que os cartazes cumpram a sua função.

Também tenho tido alguns porblemas desses, sei que na Calçada de Carriche, em Lx, por exemplo, manda sempre fazer um desvio para voltar a entrar na mesma estrada, lá num sítio… não faz sentido nenhum.

Ando há um tempo a pensar descobrir como corrigir isso. Ainda não arranjei tempo.

Como diz o poVoq “Qualquer pessoa pode melhorar os dados do OpenStreetMap.” desde que saiba como!

OT: Como é que se cita um username, aqui no lemmy?

Don’t know the site you’re looking for - might have never seen it. But I saw a tip a while back: name YOUR scripts something like “,script” (with a comma, or other confortable to type character as 1st character). It would be odd to ever find a colision.

I just don’t do that though! Too odd!

Didn’t know that. Thanks.

Hum!.. 😃

Well… since I create a new gmail account for each device, no luck there. Thanks.
