Taking of the socks after a long day of skiing

This… is fucking amazing

A medieval peasant on a celebration day. I doubt they could eat a whole as chicken every day

db0 wants to ban feddit communities because they believe that mods not letting death threats pass there in moderation passes as zionism.

Why are there so many people coming here allegedly from this chart starting with this year

E tier ist so boring bc it has nothing in it so it deserves F tier

Beautifully said. Every time someone brings up the “nothing to hide” argument it always pisses me off, yet I’m often not able to put into words properly why I feel about it this way

Might be useful for self-hosting when you’re away from home and don’t want to open your ports up to public internet traffic. Also whistle blowing is kind of in public interest. And circumventing regional censorship. Depending on the country the latter two might not be fully legal but it’s best if it stays this way. Hiding yourself from prying eyes of ISPS google and so on is also fully legal and important as you can be geolocated often to a few hundred meters without it.

Yeah no in no world would I call it perfect. The web version had problems of decrypting encryption keys without a phone also connected and syncing for me. I used to have an account with Element directly for a subscription so that I could have certain bridges. Since they discontinued this and botchered the transition they shut down that homeserver. I wasn’t paying for a while but I expected to still be able to use the normal account matrix features on their homeserver. They just shut it down and mentioned it a few months previously in their blog posts but I didn’t ever receive a mail or anything. Their data export/transfer tool stopped working with their home server shut down. I would argue actually for smaller instances because I don’t trust the Matrix.org team as they split of from Elements but small servers also have a risk because they often depends on individual admins

But they are?

But… They already have text channels pretty much figured out and are on better calling rn with Element Call

I agree that smaller communities might care more about the users, but they often heavily depend on single individuals which is a heavy risk factor long term imo

Well its not discord so ofc there’s not as much traffic. And the decentralized listing is just part of the decentralized nature of it. Lemmy also doesn’t have as much traffic as reddit yet here we are

Yeah ofc Stoat is too, I’m just saying what I like about Matrix. I just personally don’t know of any third party Stoat clients but I also haven’t looked into it since I’m accustomed to Matrix. I checked their page but its pretty bare bones on information

Just use the Element client on desktop and Element X on mobile. Use the Matrix.org homeserver by the matrix foundation if you don’t know any other/better choice for you personally. Bam and you’re in. I actually really value the choice in clients tho. With the decentralized way of Matrix there’s lots of options but just pick the mainstream once for starters

Wait but isn’t matrix.org available to anyone now?

Because its federated, is also a really nice messaging replacement and is E2EE. If I only want a discord replacement without anything else I’d consider stoat, but really I feel like Matrix just checks so many more boxes. I’ve used Matrix for a long time now. Also since its FOSS anyone can build a client for it and you can make it yours

I like element honestly, it has everything I need. Element call as a recent implementation is nice for that sort of thing. It also supports screen sharing

No like fake generated ID. This is decent for face scans tho

Vintage Story, soon Hytale bit for bit. Also there are just mods for Minecraft to circumvent chat blocks
