That’s how you win asymmetric warfare.
I am, because this government has decided the US constitution just doesn’t matter, and now, we have literal nazis running the government.
I stand by my people, not the government oppressing them.
Or, we could use it for free! Get two birds stoned at once!
More akin to Elon insisting the cybertruck is the way of the future, and people just keep buying Rivians and internal combustion vehicles.
Thanks! I’ve not seen this before, gonna go look into it :)
Is DEI also vaporware?
For a lot of FLOSS projects, it’s common to keep the initial team small, so a product can be delivered fast, and gets opened up later.
It’s to solve the “too many cooks” and prevent bikeshedding.
A lot of corpo espionage is there solely to tank potential competitors, which include FLOSS projects.
One thing to keep in mind: briar DOES disclose MAC addresses for all interfaces, to enable contact discovery and routing.
Not a show stopper, but it is something to be aware of.

Signal, no. And yes, Lemmy’s integration via AP is sub-perfect. Ie, I can (and do) follow communities on lemmy, with my Mastodon and pixelfed accounts.
So, work is needed, and only happens if a) same protocol is used, or b) bridge modules are used (like friendica does).
If someone made an xmpp bridge to talk AP, then it’s would be one big network, like how a lot of irc nets get bridged with xmpp nets, which makes those one, singular, federated network. But until they start speaking the protocol the rest of the fediverse does, it’s just another network.
And again, it’s not a bad thing. It’ll even probably get there eventually.
Friendica was one of the very first fediverse platforms, and is over a decade old at this point. Hell, almost 2 decades old.
I’m just saying that there’s deficiencies in those other networks. Just that they are different networks.
Now if an xmpp user can directly message or communicate with a Mastodon user… then they’d be both part of the “fediverse”.
Sounds like very late stage capitalism to me…
They just did the speed run past us.
D* generally isn’t, excepting the few instances that also speak AP.
Then email is a part of the fediverse? UUCP nets? IRC nets?
All federated, none speak AP.
I think a good working definition is “speaks the w3c standard AP”. Otherwise, its totally lost its meaning.
I don’t know of anyone who include d*, accepting the tiny number of d* pods that also speak AP.
I mean, nostr is also NOT part of the fediverse, but another federated and decentralized network.
I mean, yeah… the fediverse, specifically, are AP servers, which is why we don’t include diaspora for it.
It’s decentralized and federated, to be sure, just not the “fediverse”.
Element/matrix aren’t part of the fediverse, either. It doesn’t speak AP.
Yes, based on nationalist reasons, to chnage facts to suit governments.
This is no different to google kowtowing to China’s imagined borders.
The fact is the worls knows this is the Gulf of Mexico. Not whatever Trump imagines it to be callled. Denali is still Denali, as well.
