His argument is essentially that people are not toxic enough in online meetings to innovate.

I mostly agree with you, the internet must change, and it’s changing for the good with these non-profit decentralized networks like Lemmy.

These companies abused the internet too much and it’s hit a breaking point. People are taking the power back. I look forward to a user-owned internet again where the content I see is not entirely controlled by corporate interests.

I think these websites will genuinely die within the next decade. There’s just never been decentralized social media(of this kind) to compete with them before.

Yeah, I saw this coming at least 5 years ago.

It’s the way Linus talks and acts, how their whole business revolves around a parasocial relationship with the viewers.

He actually became what he hated about NCIX so much.

Public key auth, and fail2ban on an extremely strict mode with scaling bantime works well enough for me to leave 22 open.

Fail2ban will ban people for even checking if the port is open.

Before people get worried about this, this is how literally any online service works. If you have an account anywhere, you trusted that service to not record your password.

Only exception is oauth, which actually might be a good idea for Lemmy.

That is a lot of words to say ‘they can’t see your password, but they can try to guess it. Make a secure password and you won’t have any problems’

Canadian problems :( and probably Australia too.

So many sports clips straight up not available here.

A ‘no take, only throw’ mentality.

You want descriptive answers? Make a descriptive question.

It can be as simple as ‘what is “x” and why?’

You’re not just inconveniencing them, you’re literally causing hundreds of dollars in damage.

Damaging their car isn’t helping anyone, except for making yourself feel better, it’s such an immature way to respond.

It’s like punching someone for using racial slurs and derogatory terms. You’re not in the right to punch them.

An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind.

As shitty as people can be, it’s never appropriate to respond to non-damaging inconvenience with vandalism. That’s you stooping even lower than their level.

Username does not check out.

Meh, you sure can.

I have memmy and still prefer wefwef

The first one is the best looking game on switch in my opinion and one of the best playing.

I really hope we get at least close to the level of polish that game had on the next one, even if not as high.

Ansible vault

There really is no avoiding tic tok is there?

Even creators I used to respect started creating this adhd-friendly nonsense with 0 educational value.

I can’t imagine how someone born today is going to grow up to be a functional human being. All the big corporations are controlling every single little thing they see.

Expect to see something soon for it though! There’s an open issue on GitHub. Someone just need to implement it.

I like how their admins still show up as Admins even when commenting on a post on another instance. At least in voyager they do.

Honestly probably a bug, but it’s cool.

They don’t change fast enough.

You can’t ban by IP, but you can sure tell what accounts are owned by the same person or coming from the same network.

It’s not perfect, but it’s another step that will catch many.

Admin owners can see IPs, which will grab most of the abusers who do this.

There are other less direct techniques that major social media platforms use to identify users with multiple accounts even on separate IPs, which Lemmy will certainly need one day.

For now though, simply using IPs is good enough until those more sophisticated algorithms are developed.
