*arr instances What is an *arr instance?

I still discover music the old way. I listen to it at a friends place or in the radio :D

If that would be possible, how would you moderate comments, seeing how random things can get?

I don’t know what you mean? If I am the admin of an instance or the moderator of a group, I could delete comments or is this just not possible?

Federating with only approved finstances (federated instance)?

Why doing this? Wouldn’t it be enough to block the illegal instances and those who are explicitly against your topics?

What if you keep your blog, then push every post you make there to your solo-community on a finstance? You can engineer your comment section on the blog to pint here or fetch the comments content from fediverse to your blog…

I am trying to be as green as possible. Having a blog on one server and the comments on another sounds like an inefficient way of using resources. Why not just put the articles where the comments are?

With Mastodon I had the same idea, that I will publish an article, post a link with short description on Mastodon and then use the Mastodon post as the comment section, then edit the blog article and put the link to Mastodon on the end of the article with a simple text link like “Comment section”.

But even this idea felt a bit odd and more unprofessional.

Lemmy looks like a really good solution to this atm.

While the last pandemic investigation showed that those machines where you put in your pin in supermarkets had more bacteria/viruses than cash. Much more people using those terminals more frequently than any same coin or same bill.

Digital money is stolen more often and in higher amounts. People who are glorifying credit cards do it until they got scammed or hacked and loose all their savings or even their identity. They go from “credit card fuck yeah” to “why have I been so stupid?” within a minute.

And why would you even carry a large amount of money with you? People who use cash, use common sense in general.

The first time I saw the message “Your messages are now encrypted” on WhatsApp my reaction was “Yes, but it’s worthless if you keep a copy of the key”.

If the end user isn’t able to create the key by themselves, it’s most likely useless.

Imagine you rent a flat and the owner is Facebook, who keeps a copy of the key and let everyone in who pays some money.

With so much note taking apps nowadays, I can’t understand why someone should waste time to find their smartphone, power it on, input the pin for the sim, unlock the screen, find the right app in the app jungle, open it, find the “new note” option, which is hidden in a sub menu instead of using a short cut on your keyboard to bring up a terminal, which opens Vim and automatically saves the file as a note with the correct file name.

Scammer: “Buy a Jpeg everyone can download”
Investor: “Sounds like I can get rich with that. How much does one cost?”
Scammer: “20,000 to 50,000”
Investor: “Okay, I take four!”
People download jpegs instead of buying NFTs and making fun of it
Investor: “I lost all my money. I sue you!”

I should visit Norway, sounds like there are cool people there.

please use a dash between artist and song name you uncivilized person!

I never understood why their channel have been so popular? Every video felt like a scammer who want to sell me stolen stuff.

Can someone explain the popularity of them?

Quick! Let’s move all Youtube channels to the fediverse (PeerTube), before people are getting conditioned to another sick behavior created by rich people.
