That is a valid, nuanced take that this article and (seemingly) the legislation don’t get into.

Of course ad-supported services are infringing on your privacy in a way but if you’re not ready to call Facebook a publicly-funded utility, it’s childish to act like it’s so essential that it should be entirely ad-free with no paid tier.
Only cause they can’t interject ads while driving lol
The point was that it’s apples to oranges. Monetization is kinda the key issue here unless you’re ready to declare Facebook a utility and publicly fund it. Personally, I’d rather we be rid of it entirely.
And that is totally unreasonable collection, of course. It’s also completely incomparable to pretending that Facebook is as necessary as a car (at least in America).
But there’s also no ad-supported cars.
I appreciate that responsiveness!!
I don’t have an Android but thanks for the links regardless.
This looks badass. I do wish there were better mobile apps for a lot of these media servers. I’ve been mostly sticking to Plexamp for now cause of it.
You all can downvote me but if you’re not interested in living in the land of facts, demonstrating any attempt at backdooring Fediverse products beyond “bad money in a think tank”, then there’s literally not even the smoke to indicate a fire.
Can you share anything that indicates that understanding governance is even tangentially related to backdooring these products or the teams behind them? Is the best response really “wait four years and see”?
That hardly means they’re investigating how to take over instances… These egghead think tanks will do research on anything that matches a couple buzzwords and this is one of them.
Someone’s researching governance in a federated environment and that’s scary because…?
This is the worst part to me. All this just to “cloud sync” or something silly.
Badass!
I might be able to help here. Is it outbound or inbound networking? Is there a ticket number you’d be okay sharing?
With how bad Lemmy federates across other platforms, even those still federating won’t be seen on Threads lol
Honestly, this is kinda making me wanna redeploy a couple app stacks I have on a VPS. Hmm.
You’re gonna make me cry.
Yuck. I have to prop up a server and pay a monthly fee? They’re not doing that much for me.
Just started toying with Jellyfin for my media after Plex started being freaks about everything. I love PlexAmp though so anything that moves the needle on that is excellent. Tried some other players but currently, my setup only works in network and I’ll need to configure SSL somehow.
