That's just not true. I've always been an android user and it's non-trivial to change the battery, hasn't been easy for years.

I'm all for this. The big argument against it is that it makes it harder to waterproof but I'll take that over a phone I have to replace every 18 months because the battery is shit.

Big instances surfing up content from smaller instances is invariably going to cripple them unless larger instances start locally caching that content.

What a shower of cunts

That's true if of any power plant though. It'll still be cheaper and safer (if it ever works).

The main goal of these sites is link aggregation. It wouldn't be overly difficult for a federated server with its own /c/Technology community to see other posts from other communities linking to the same thing and combining the discussions into a single view.

The tricky part there is moderation, but even that's manageable by allowing moderators to remove content from a federated view within their own instance, it'll just be difficult when a small instance is dwarfed by a larger one.

This won't be possible. Best you can do is use something like waybackmachine to get a cached version of the page.

Freedom of speech is never freedom of consequence. And if that consequence is that nobody wants to listen to you, well that's on you.

What could be more important than being a shitty person?

[–] Kushan@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I think this is true but I think it has always been the case. The question is were there more bots than usual and I'm unconvinced there was.

There's a bit of a gap in the data but despite some subs coming back online, it seems the number of comments has more or less stayed at the levels of the last 2 days.

I'm aware, what I am getting at is that there's multiple "Right" answers to solving what is essentially a very difficult problem.
