Idiocracy

Probably because they’re shifting development work to something else. Doing it this way and making it run offline frees up developers.

Yeah it sounds just like existing IME dead reckoning navigation, but with different sensor types

The main program is open, but the development tools are not

You need to set up a publicly accessible device (in this case the VPS) as your IPv6 gateway

So you set up your VPN connecting your network to the VPS (should probably be set up from the router) and set your router to advertise an IP adress for the VPS which is routable from your local network as the gateway address (and should probably also run DHCPv6 for your network)

(note, I have not set up this stuff myself so I can’t help with implementation details)

More ambition, lol. The K9 Mail app now has backing by Mozilla

Because certainly they don’t think brigades harm communities if they won’t trust mods to set subreddits as private

“we won’t let moderators harm their communities by not letting them eg. protect their communities from brigades and similar harassment”

Sure you thought that through, reddit admins?

Microsoft had a dual screen foldable like that, then stopped supporting it

LG had a partial rollable prototype before they stopped making phones

No, this will only lead people without access to Google Play to be forced to get it from somebody who has modified the app to fake the check.

With an automated refactoring step to pretend it’s really not derivative work despite being extremely derivative

So by default your instance respect mod removals.

You can change that as a server admin, so comments would remain visible to other users on your instance.

I think your instance is authoritative for content of comments, but the community hosting instance is authoritative for which comments are approved (other instances respect such removals by default)

Somebody should consider building a fork that works of bluesky’s content addressing scheme, that way communities can effectively be re-homed in full even if the server dies

Lemmy stores your posts and replies on both your host server and on the server of the community.

One interesting behavior to note here that is different from reddit is that while comments on reddit belong to the profile of the person commenting and is then imported to view in the subreddit (this is why you can edit comments after being banned, and why there visible in your profile even if removed from a subreddit), on lemmy the target community is instead authoritative and your host server will by default respect a deletion by community mods on different servers by also removing that comment from your profile.

It depends on the type of location, small remote locations might not even get their own local network

They’re not for long term storage, they’re for transient storage like photography, in particular stuff like surveillance cameras

What you’re suggesting can’t work

I sympathize with some of it, but you’re going too far

Content addressable posts like what Bluesky’s atproto does and cryptographic identity allows for portable posts and identities, and it even allows forkable communities as you can import and move entire conversations, and even mirror conversations that one team of mods may not like into another community (I made my first blog post about content addressable forums literally a whole decade ago)

And when posting to any /c/books the default visibility should be the same assuming a neutral reputation server and a neutral reputation user.

Literally impossible according to the CAP theorem (database terminology) in a decentralized network where not all servers federate with all (often because they just never have interacted and thus don’t know of each other)

You have to push the communities to participate in multiple parallel communities, that’s much more reliable. Together with a credible threat that the community can depose bad mod teams by forking, you have a much better chance of preventing bad mod behavior

You’re basically suggesting bluesky style label services, except as the only solution

And no that can not be the only solution avaliable, ESPECIALLY not in communities around important topics like security, health, or for marginalized communities, etc. Your suggested default would be a trashfire by default until people have opted into some kind of moderation filters. And few will review the filters they subscribe to.

You also haven’t solved the issue of how to get people to submit content to smaller communities

You have probably never seen a well moderated community, or at least not participated in one for long.
