In other words, can any user delete its data on its will and is there something that will remove its data from all the connected activitypub services? I believe this should actually be a basic feature and pretty much a requirement.
Anything you post on the internet is public knowledge forever. End of discussion. Most people won’t care at all, in most cases almost nobody or perhaps even literally nobody will ever even see it, but the harder you try to hide it, the more the Streisand Effect will magnify it until eventually everyone knows about it.
Anyone telling you they’ll delete your data from the internet without clarifying that it is in fact impossible, is at worst deliberately lying to you usually for their own benefit, and at best making a promise they literally have zero ability to keep.
I would hope that Fediverse services will never lie to you and tell you your data is deleted, because it can’t be.
I think not? Which is kind of a drawback to the fediverse. You gotta be careful what you post cause it’s probably gonna be somewhere forever.
I could be wrong though
I grew up in the 70s and always found little house on the prairie to be the most bumpkin corny shit.
I guess netflix is banking that this will be their Yellowstone, as bumpkin prime time soaps are in now.
On the behalf of the admin and moderation team:
We will not add age-verification unless we will literally be force-shutdown if we don’t.
If we do, it will be a one-on-one call in which you show one of us – personally, on our actual phone numbers or signal or some shit – your ID and we just put a little mark on your profile saying “yep we verified”
we will not, at any point, ever build age-verification into the software nor rely on my butt to do it. We don’t fucking want your data, it’s a massive risk to have around.
If we can get by without it, we will simply not do it, even if we have to block some countries. The UK is not a “target market” for app.wafrn.net as we have no target market.
I thought it was quite clear. Verifying your age with an alcohol purchase receipt is a dumb idea for a large variety of reasons, including ease of acquiring one, ease of copying images, ease of printing one yourself and the cumulative ease of doing all this without an actual adult willingly involved in your scheme. It’s is not nearly as fool proof as verifying government ID.
Of course, I’m against all invasive forms of age verification. Doesn’t mean I’m going to advocate for a rally bad alternative either.
They’re both dumb ideas. That’s the point.
Hey selfhosters 👋
A few weeks ago I shared Ideon here and got great feedback that shaped a lot of what I’ve been working on since.
Since my last post here, Ideon crossed 200 stars on GitHub and I wanted to say thank you ❤. It means a lot to see people interested in what started as a side project. It motivated me to work on it literally every day since then.
For those who missed it: Ideon is a self-hosted visual workspace where you lay out everything about a project on an infinite canvas: notes, Git repos, code snippets, checklists, sketches, links and connect them together. Two containers, no external dependencies.
Since then, a lot has changed and I wanted to share an update.
Self-hosting got smoother. Docker permission issues with bind mounts are gone, build times are faster, and there’s a new GIT_ALLOWED_HOSTS env variable so you can whitelist your internal Git servers (Gitea, Forgejo, GitLab behind a VPN, etc.) without the SSRF filter blocking them.
Collaboration got real structure. There are now 4 project roles (Creator, Owner, Editor, Viewer), a Request Access workflow for private projects, and the canvas supports real-time multiplayer with conflict-free editing.
The canvas got a lot more usable. Keyboard navigation (arrow keys + vim keys), a command palette, freehand sketch blocks, drag-and-drop checklists with progress bars, markdown tables and task lists, emoji reactions on blocks, edge labels, and a bunch of stability fixes for large projects.
Where this is going next:
Right now Ideon lets you see your project. Git stats, issues, PRs show up on the canvas, but you can only look at them. For the v1 I want to move from visibility to control. Merge a PR from the canvas. Trigger a deployment. Restart a service. Turn the workspace into an actual cockpit where you operate your project, not just view it.
That’s the direction. Curious what this community thinks about it.
If you tried it and hit something rough, or if you’ve been waiting to try it, now’s a good time. Feedback always welcome.
Yes it is.
As OP said, stars correlated with their own posting on Lemmy. So your affirmation is not absolutely true. It’s all relative… same applies to posting on reddit vs. lemmy… There’s a dilemma between popularity vs. a smaller niche population with ethical concerns.
In a similar vein, PRs might be more in quantity but less in quality when comparing any foss project on github vs codeberg…
If you do plan on going please double check the address. I had a heck of a time trying to find out where and when this even was. But it looks really cool.
I hope the event will get some videos of the different presenters!
Not all counter culture is good I suppose.
The ones im looking at are talking about LoRa and other alternative meshnet stuff.
Anybody good on that list? Just going down it…
Oh no, oh no, oh no…

Yo, if any y’all want a nicely done, mostly wholesome TV show to get into, I highly recommend “Shrinking”.
Interesting characters, good story lines. Besides, who doesn’t love Harrison Ford?
Catch it at your local Arrrrrrrr source.
Not really, no.
If he was 8, his growing up between seasons would be even more staggering. Cheer up, bud.

Pseudonymity has never been perfect for preserving privacy. Soon it may be pointless.
The scary part of this is that they have all the time in the world to perfect this while my Reddit comments are just sitting there, waiting.
And now you understand why they are pushing for my butt data centers everywhere.
So they can spy on everyone, figure out who is talking about what, and have it quickly identified and summarized, at all times.
Don’t just imagine this being about you and your own nothing to hide.
This is about squashing dissent, lying to voters/hiding vote manipulation, manufacturing consent, corporate espionage/market manipulation, basically anything you can think of that having advanced knowledge of would benefit them.
There is a reason they named the company Palantir.
