Almost all Matrix servers seem to require at least an email address. A better option would be XMPP, as most servers only require a username and a password to register. It’s also the IETF internet standard and a lot less bloated than Matrix.

XMPP, the internet standard for federated instant messaging.
So the cost of getting a post on the front page of every Lemmy instance is the cost of registering a new domain.
Since it’s not federated like XMPP this is completely pointless when all the users are on their server.

Let’s go web standards!
USB-C wasn’t exactly Apple’s idea.
Having been in a long distance relationship during COVID, with times where I couldn’t meet my girlfriend for 12 and 18 months, I know just how the loneliness crushed me and how much happier I am now we’re married and living together.
Is there a reason to use anything else besides uBlockOrigin?
Survivorship bias.

People like shiny things. They should build on the existing internet standards, and make a shiny XMPP client. Instead we get yet another incompatible protocol.
It’s not really comparable. Duolingo is a nice game and all, but if you want to get serious about language learning (having a vocabulary > 10000 words) Anki + example sentences is the way to go.
They already collected tens of millions of venture capital funding for an inefficient reinvention of XMPP. Can we boost XMPP development instead? We don’t need another corporate replacement for an existing internet standard.

@HenriVolney I’m terribly sorry.
I just love how the other person immediately knew there could be a difference between the left and the right USB port.
