We’re supposed to handle them?

I did it because it is cheaper, lets me learn a bit about self hosting and causes me to have less captchas and less websites blocking me, and its also more resistant to any potential VPN bans (my country’s already made social media have age verification, I’m sure they’ll come for vpns eventually). You’re right that I don’t have the benefit of blending in but there’s still a lot of other ways you can be fingerprinted so that really isn’t a huge benefit.

Definitely Codeberg if you don’t want to self host anything

Mine’s on 24/7, I feel like it’s better to use than not use it. I self host one on a vps over using s commercial one

How about the people that voted for people that weren’t Trump?

Simply, no it isn’t. I took a look, it’s honestly a nice community and doesn’t look like “an echochamber of misandry” Saying this as a guy btw

I like how it’s more decentralised but still feels easy to use, and also has no ads and isn’t controlled by companies trying to make money. I also love how it is easy to curate a feed with only content that you want in it, and none that you don’t being shoved in by algorithms that collect all your data

Try a different Matrix client like Sable or Commet, they have much better ux than element. Element is honestly a pretty garbage matrix client when it comes to the ui and ux

Yes, Lemming is the term. Now the next question is what to call us piefed users and mbin users

Not sure about chromium ones but it works on all firefox based browsers

Do you use a vpn? I had this same bug as well and split tunneling voyager out of my VPN fixed it. I think it might be an issue with some piefed instances like zip and blahaj since I was able to login with piefed.social over my VPN fine, but not with zip.

I like the Voyager ui alot. I did try Blorp on mobile and liked it too but I like the voyager ui more than having the extra features. I’ve also switched back to using Piefed ui after they introduced some new themes that make me like the ui enough to use it when combined with the fact it has all the latest Piefed features

Oh, now it makes sense

What

Yeah this is true for a good amount of proprietary software but not really for most Foss software, which I mostly use now

I think there’s no problem unless you can’t opt out of them, automatic updates are convenient for a lot of people like me, who forgets to check for updates to things

Agree with the .zip instances, it’s nice to not randomly lose access to communities over instance drama
