In what way are those better? Don’t they still suffer from the privacy problems that come with federation? In fact, Peertube’s P2P nature makes it one of the least private and secure Fediverse implementations I know of. From what I can see experimenting with Pixelfed, PeerTube, and Akkoma, they’re suffering from the same privacy and user safety issues Lemmy suffers from. Like on Bluesky, the user-facing controls are in no way enforced when activities cross federation in any way, so they only work in whitelist-based, tight-knit communities or defederated instances.
I find Friendica’s “expiration” to be quite disingenuous, because the language on the front page implies privacy features that can’t be attained in real life. That also goes for their controls, promising private chats that are only as private as the participating servers are willing to make them.
Hubzilla and Streams seem very interesting. I’ll have to dig into those, they seem very promising.
Hubzilla and the zot protocol are a really promising alternative to ActivityPub, just not as much traction.
Yes, the issue is that Lemmy does not even attempt to allow you to delete the image. There is no control for the user to do this. It’s literally not possible.
