Ohhhh I did not expect such an endorsement :D

Ty a lot

Predictably rough start because solarpunk and even Reddit are not that famous in italy. Most of the “””scene””” is fine on telegram and discord so asking to speak more in public and less in private is gonna be hard but for the sake of free flow of information and a slower pace social media we will still try u.u

I agree with some of the points of the original thread:

• having Twitter clone or Instagram clone but decentralized kinda sucks no matter how you put it and it’s probably not mass sustainable

On the other hand… Lemmy is just a forum that can connect to other forums. You don’t find cool subreddits searching for them, the good ones are the ones recommended by other people, usually not by search. The fediverse actually suffers from having a big user base that wants Reddit/twitter/insta but decentralized instead of having small forums/microblogs connected to each other. Also the reason why you see me often advocating for less “generalized instances” and wanting more vertical focused ones. This is easily possible with lemmy dividing by topic and with mastodon dividing by localization.

If you want the fedi to thrive, build lemmy instances focused on being a stand alone forum first and mastodon ones focused on being local first (same for mobilizon)

I’m gonna quote myself from another comment

Y’all need to learn to read between the lines

Maybe y’all need to stop reading different cases always with the same lens.

Altman is a social climber and even if he is playing to kick out all the people against him, openai is still a no profit. They probably will manage to change but it’s such a different scenario. ChatGPt is the golden goose of the moment in their eyes, no one will give billions and billions of euro to proton just to enshittify

If you think some bad takes make a person, again I think you are the one who should read between the lines and using less the cynism lens

“corporate parasite”

That’s the thing, they are a foundation. Proton is now fully owned by a foundation…

Se ai dev open source interessasse sviluppare per non tecnici avresti ragione, ma così non è

E infatti l’open non mi pare che fermi Google dal fare le schifezze, sia sotto un punto di vista etico sia di controllo dello sviluppo tecnologico

L’open source e il foss non bastano, mettiamoci una pietra sopra

Gandi got sold 2 times

Basically the company went from “no bullshit” to “just another asset for some capitalist fund who only cares about extracting as much value as possible”

It would be so good to have a no profit owned or cooperative European domain seller

Name?

I use Valquer because:

• it stopped my dandruff
• can buy in big quantities

The filter is being a pet peeve of mine too these days

I would like to be sure that I’m filtering stuff but looks like filters on miniflux and freshrss just work on future articles so I should do something like put a filter to an rss feed I control and then post and check if it works

I tried searching for n150 minipcs but there is just one on galaxus; probably geekom, beelink and acemagic just don’t know about it

Btw I’d like a source for

swiss cooperative

To me it looks like a normal company but with big majority of shares held by a coop corporation (that it a corporation made of coops, so galaxus is more an asset of this corp not a full member)

Obviously all of this is still by far better than Amazon so I’ll try ordering from them when the stuff I need is available on it :)

right there, yes (for real, i opened just to answer picard)

You can use vikunja that is German

Since we are not a registered non-profit or so, we cannot provide you with a certificate for tax deductions though

Consider opencollective :3

If they are paying paypal, you are leveraging paypal to create a threat of violence on them. That’s not very Solarpunk of you.

This message is very ironic after having watched just yesterday the sociology lesson about socialization.

First you express that threats of violence are bad and then you express yourself a threat of violence to me. Because violence is actually used at every level to enforce rules and norms. Your attempt of relying to the menace of getting (at idealism level) kicked from the solarpunks is violence itself.

It’s not very solarpunk to immediately rely on violence while discussing ideas :P

So you do think it’s a real dichotomy?

I can trust people without trusting their, and mine, ability to remember everything. When a friend lends me money (trusting that I won’t just take them and ghost them), I keep a txt for every time I give back part of the money. Not because we don’t trust each other and are scared to steal to each other but because we are humans and don’t want to keep everything in the active memory of the brain when we can just write it down.

It’s a tool that has some functions on the microsociologic level and others at the macro one. On a macro one, yes trust can be a part of it if the platform bears some of the refunds part etc.

honestly i’m not sure myself if different tokens on same ledger is better than different tokens on different ledger for what i think…

Because, for example, not every pirate is also solarpunk. Not every archivist is solarpunk. Not every anything common based is solarpunk. They may want to contribute to the pirate sphere with this economic incentive but we still couldn’t completely onboard them on a solarpunk platform (centralized or decentralized ledger whatever)

Why not just trust people

I think you are implying a false dichotomy here, like money and trust are opposed. Anyway, trust in people doesn’t scale at all, it’s trust about platforms that can kinda scale. I do not trust a random person on the other side of the ocean i’ve never seen but if we use paypal and ebay i can kinda trust those 2 platforms

It’d need to be stable

not hard at all if community based

It’d need to be more private

I don’t completely agree with this. Wealth is unelected power. There have to be ways to not be tracked but a complete opaque system like monero is not wise imo.

It’d need to be backed by something other than waste

Trust among members i’d say
