Let them go bankrupt

Hm not sure what to make of this. The author of the article states pretty clearly what company they are affiliated with. The comments seem to push a product called Splunk which doesn’t appear in the article at all.

Lemmy is the only community I know where claims of “toxic extreme leftist” cannot easily be dismissed.

I haven’t recognized any posts as covert ads here I think. Can you give an example?

I’m pretty sure they don’t profit from sending you to another McDonald’s.

If the instance defederates, users do not have an option to interact with the defederated instance anymore. The only choice you have then is to join an instance where the moderation policy agrees with your values or host your own instance. If you just want to see if defederation was the right idea, you could just visit those instances directly and look at their local timeline.

You could seed the Torrents by the internet archive.

Please leave Lemmy, your kind is not welcome here.

I misread.

It’s a good thing nothing critical depends on this, then!

If other drivers are more cautiously around you, it’s already a huge win and to some extent offsets your mistakes.

Fuck.

Please send me the numbers of the lottery numbers last week. As you already know, I will split 50/50.

The whole point of XMPP or Matrix is to provide interoperability between IM services. For interoperability to exist, we must agree on standards. Matrix is not a standard, but essentially a product controlled entirely by NewVector, a venture capital funded start-up.

They are not profitable and increasingly desperate to make money. Recently they forked Element and Synapse and make contributors sign a CLA which enables them to change their software to a non-free license in the future for monetization: https://drewdevault.com/2018/10/05/Dont-sign-a-CLA.html

You might say “But they made a non-profit foundation for Matrix” which is kind of true, but not really. The “core spec team” is all people working for NewVector except a single guy. Go checkout their linked GitHub profiles.

The whole Matrix thing should build on the existing XMPP internet standard. Instead we got yet another incompatible IM protocol, effectively controlled by a single corporation and more fragmentation. Bridges don’t help as they break almost all features, most regrettably end-to-end encryption. We really need proper internet standards for interoperability.

XMPP is also more lightweight and has proper native clients for all platforms instead of Electron apps. On the server side the difference is even more severe.

1. Yes

2. Yes

3. Should say XMPP, the IETF internet standard for IM. Matrix is a venture capital sham not compatible with existing standards.

4. No, there is a huge content gap.
