tbf, those systems are now effectively haunted
I guess mel isn’t going to use you for their self hosting needs either, then.
One of the problems with online forums for organizing is that it’s hard to naturally build an organizational structure. It’s possible, but I think it requires experienced organizers to start choosing collaborators from the userbase.
We haven’t seen a lot of organizing boiling out of the existing forums (Reddit, Facebook, blogs) and microblogging (Twitter) platforms. There have been a bunch of leaderless movements, like #metoo and BLM, but those have had a moment and then faded out. If they were effective tools for organizing, I would expect to see more organizations come out of them and persist.
Conversely, volunteer community organizations form all the time - people are physically situated near people experiencing similar problems who are invested in solutions they think will work for their community. In-person organization is self perpetuating in the sense that there is an inherent reward for having an effect.
I think it’s possible to use online tools to create a movement, but like the author of the article says, most of us spend our time posting and upvoting rather than doing something that will change policy.
when it comes to addressing the problems we face, no amount of posting or passive info consumption is going to substitute the hard, unsexy work of organizing.
The fediverse is great, but the problem is that it isn’t organizing. It isn’t mobilizing people to scare politicians and businesses into behaving better.
When you run httptap – <command>, httptap runs <command> in an isolated network namespace, injecting a certificate authority created on-the-fly in order to decrypt HTTPS traffic. Here is the process in detail:
In linux, there is a kernel API for creating and configuring network interfaces. Conventionally, a network interface would be a physical ethernet or WiFi controller in your computer, but it is possible to create a special kind of network interface called a TUN device. A TUN device shows up to the system in the way that any network interface shows up, but any traffic written to it will be delivered to a file descriptor held by the process that created it. Httptap creates a TUN device and runs the subprocess in an environment in which all network traffic is routed through that device.
“a network of smugglers” sounds very entrepreneurial.
- Amazon has struggled to make inroads in Argentina because of high tariffs and labyrinthine import regulations.
- MercadoLibre, Latin America’s biggest e-commerce platform, dominates the digital commerce market.
- A network of smugglers who ferry goods into the country is booming.
@farcaster@lemmy.world is having a hard time getting it to work. They’re probably an average user, so other average users will probably have issues as well.
The statements about usability and monetization hold true: if the free platform is harder to use, or it breaks business models that attract users then it will fail.
C) it’s functionally equivalent to the commercial service
D) influencers who can monetize commercial platforms can also monetize this platform - otherwise the big accounts won’t move over, nor will their followers.
Most people use computers as tools, and just want to hang with their friends or get a dopamine hit. Platforms like Mastodon don’t quite fit the bill so they fail to gain traction.
Twitter is very friendly to influencers because it automatically boosts popular posts and hashtags. Mastodon doesn’t by design, so they’re gonna have a much, much harder time there.
That’s an okay decision to take, but it makes it hard to grow the network because there’s a lower financial incentive.

I worry that billionaires who are profiting from these policy changes will be able to cement them.
The US and Canadian population is incredibly docile, so I don’t expect revolt unless things become terrible. We’ve seen our share of wealth shrink over the past few decades, and the cost of living skyrocket, but our reaction is to elect more of the same.
I hope they delete it. Good luck!
It’s a headline on the Globe and Mail website.
What are the alternatives?
Can you report the review as not relevant?
So you’re saying the lemmite can eat it?
Phew. Glad that bug got papered over 9999 years ago, so we won’t have to deal with it.
