Russia is a kleptocracy, a massive mafia state run by a dim-witted dictator. All this vatnik propaganda is wild, man. If their economy is so good, why can’t they build any more T-92s? Why are they using defective artillery shells they bought from NORTH KOREA?! Give me a break!

I think you’re a little confused. Replace Russia with Ukraine and then you’ll be 100% accurate. Being a Russia hater with nonsense like this, doesn’t look well on you. Do some research and you’ll learn that the production lines are booming. Of course you won’t get accurate information from our MSM.

Moderation should always be client side. Server side should not be able to interfere or even read public content

Yup. I don’t know if I agree re public content, but perhaps private messages should be encrypted, client side, before sending? That issue is one that bothers me about Mastodon.

No. He wouldn’t be happy with ActivityPub as well. He imagines a social network where no one can perform any moderation. He favours Nostr for exactly that reason. Bluesky has got moderation (just like the Fediverse) - which he dislikes.

So? Like Usenet was back in the day before it became a pirate haven. Then email lists became it. LOL, People tend to ignore the extreme nut jobs regardless. I never saw any child porn on Usenet, but then I didn’t go looking for it. No doubt it existed too.

At least Dorsey is thinking about social platforms, problems. Did you even read the post or simply spouting what your tribe says in your echo chamber?

Too bad most commenting haven’t read the interview (what else is new, eh?). I like this, Jack Dorsey responding to a question on how the US government had its hooks into Twitter’s leadership before the buyout:

I think it was problematic, and I also don’t think the people who got called out in the Twitter Files get enough credit for pushing back on government requests. The U.S. is certainly one of them. Twitter has a track record of fighting the U.S. on free speech causes, especially around transparency reports. Opening the lens even broader to other governments, we had even more fights. Tons of fights with India, Turkey, Russia, Nigeria. These are all governments that threatened arrest of our employees, raided our employees’ homes, offices, asking for phone numbers and personal information for accounts that were critical of the governments. I think that was one part that’s overlooked and not appreciated.

I’ve been keeping my eye on this project. Eventually, I hope to use it for an instance on my own metal, as it promises to be a lighter on resources’ server than Mastodon.

YW. I enjoy reading what’s happening in the 'verse. Hopefully, more and more folks will notice that there’s more to it than Mastodon.

thanks for this, hadn’t heard of Rescuezilla before. I’ll have to take it for a spin.

Isn’t ClamTK a GUI to ClamAV if I remember correctly?

I’m not a DD or even a DM; however, it would be nice to see a non-white tech bro person have the leadership mantle for once. Love the Debian Distribution and its quality!

BTW The BRAVE browser has built in tracking prevention without requiring extension overhead. Works better by default in my experience than either of the two mentioned in the post. YMMV though.
