That's indeed confusing. The wording linked below suggests the eula is for packages distributed by owncloud. so to my understanding the source itself and any third party packages don't need to care about it.

Yeah I was also thinking about multiple users for this, but that's a terrible hack on so many levels...
Yeah that sounds good too, but it's not the same thing. I just want a client side filter for lists of communities. No need to involve AP or get consensus amongst many users/communities, just my preferences. If we want to get fancy, have some APIs to store these lists server side so or can with across clients - still strictly single user. It feels so simple I am tenors to get my hands dirty, but for one diving into a new project is usually quite since work and it hardly ever turns out to be as easy as it seems (then again the new python lemmylike thing already has it instance wide, so it at least is doable).
Oh dang, I got excited about a new update. Then I started getting deja-vus. And finally I checked the date: This is from early May. Still a good read, unless you already did read it before :P
Outlook (no I don't want it) (still) (really not) (WTF I SAID NO)
Looks like a federated wiki, which is great. And not a Wikipedia alternative. What makes wikipedia wikipedia is not the tech. Social and knowledge problems can't be solved with tech ;)
As much as Wikipedia has issues, as the ibis announcement states, it also works in many places. And federating it won't help with the issues of bad moderation, quite the contrary. And as much as I like nutomic (thanks for syncthing-android ;) ), I don't hear many good things about the lemmy moderation story. So I have my doubts. Lets hope I am wrong. Plus anyway, federated wikis is a great thing to have, ignoring the whole Wikipedia aspect.
Also wenn ich die Änderung beim Care amendment (Rolle der Frau) lese, und meine link-sozial Biases spielen lasse, kann ich schon sehen warum man da Nein sagen würde: Da wird eine sinnvolle Änderung (Streichen der Reduktion der Frau als Mutter, und alleinige Verantwortliche für unbezahlte Care-Arbeit) mit einer starken Abschwächung des Schutzes eben dieser unbezahlten Care-Arbeit verbunden.
Vorher (emphasis mine):
[...] ensure that woman shall not be obliged by economic necessity to engage in labour to the neglect of their duties in the home.
Nachher:
[...] shall strive to support such provision [of care within the family].
Gut: Der Artikel betrifft jetzt Care in der Familie allgemein, ohne das auf Frauen/Mütter zu reduzieren. Schlecht: Vorher hat der Staat zu sichern, dass diese Care möglich ist ohne ökonomische Zwänge. Jetzt hat der Staat nur zu versuchen diese Care zu unterstützen. Das ist extrem viel schwächer, und löst bei mir alle Alarmglocken aus für eine neoliberale Abbau von sozialen Massnahmen. Persönlich bin ich ja dafür und halte es für gut für alle involvierten, wenn Elternteile arbeiten und Kinder in die Kita gehen, aber warum sollte das die einzige Variante sein: Viele möchten zu Hause sein und das finde ich auch ok. Und ich habe das Gefühl diese Haltung ist weit verbreitet hier, und in einer (ehemals?) sehr traditionell, katholischen Gesellschaft wie Irland kann ich mir gut vorstellen dass das auch so ist.
Allerdings sehe ich nichts dergleichen beim Family Amendment, also liege ich wohl eher völlig daneben mit obigen xD
Ähnliches nervt mich auch in der Schweiz bei Initiativen so häufig: Da werden extrem wichtige und gute Änderung häufig überladen. Manchmal ideologisch/absichtlich, aber manchmal scheint es mir auch einfach aus einer Übereifer hinaus: Aka "Wenn wir schon den Aufwand machen, dann doch gleich richtig". Und dann kommen halt auch Nebensächlichkeiten in die Änderung, die im besten Falle die Angriffsfläche erhöhen und im schlechtesten Fall ein Grund sind für viele abzulehnen, obwohl sie die Kernforderung eigentlich unterstützen.
Please look at past trends in fertility, and predictions of reputable, independent sources. The growth rate is already sinking fast (just in case: the rate is sinking, population is still growing). With the current/recent situation, in the short term the growth continues, but slows and mid-term there will be a reduction in population. And already today we do have the means to support this population much more sustainably, we just choose not to (we even produce food to turn it into gasoline o.O ): It would require a massive wealth/standards re-distribution, and re-distribution is socialist and thus bad (/s in case that's necessary). A possible starting point: https://ourworldindata.org/population-growth-over-time
Not Australian or American, but hey it's the internet so why not voice second hand knowledge: I heard Aussies pride themselves on being (relatively) egaliatarian, despising individuals elevating themselves above others. Seems to me about as antithetical to US mentalitity as it goes :)
Yeah no exact opposite for me: Big server means lots of user data making abuse of it more appealing and impactful. While an admin of a small instance having some fun digging through user internals would really do no harm (I don't believe that's a particularly typical hobby of small instance admins though xD ).
This is an expected statistical artifact given the "last month" aggregation and a huge influx of new users of which many don't stick around. I am saying they don't stick around, because that's generally just what happens with a lot of new users (e.g. they checked it out, decided it's not for them) and also due to the federated nature they might have switched accounts and similar things. Then the bit about "last month" aggregation: Have a look at the "Active 6 months" graph - it's still trending upwards. Those are likely a trailing average aggregations, so a maximum is reached when that 1-month-window starts (roughly) at the beginning of the huge user influx. For the 6-month window that hasn't happened yet, so still going upwards. Assuming nothing changes (similar amount of new/leaving active users) the graphs gonna be interesting in the next few weeks: After the initial wave of influx the balance was most likely negative (more users from "the wave" dropping out again than added users afterwards), however I'd hope it's gotten positive since then. If that's the case the graph should start trending upwards 1 month after the balance became positive. It's unclear when that was the case, but some towards end of July might be a reasonable guess? The same graph with a smaller window could shed some light on that (or just expose useless noise ¯_(ツ)_/¯ ).
Another sign I'd consider good: The active user ratio is trending upwards.
Disclaimer: I don't know how the data is aggregated, nor how exactly "active" is defined - the gist of the above very likely applies though. I was too lazy to look it up in the code - if someone knew how these graphs are aggregated and were so kind to let me know, that'd be appreciated :)
What?! All that noise about Switzerland mandating usage of open sourced software in gov (there was a great step, but it's far from mandating anything) was already weird, now we are switching to linux? And caring about security and fiscal responsibility? There has to be another country called Switzerland than the one I live in.
