Mastodon users don't wanna be searchable

Debatable. People don't want their private account searchable. Creators and news account want their account and their post to be discoverable.

The subscription model rarely works.

It's not that the subscription model doesn't work. It's the investor that demands things to grow even more all the time. There are plenty of service that simply deliver good stuff without investor demand and ended being sustainable for years.

Fedi becomes more accepting of ads

At least, some non-Western fediverse instance runs ads. Notably the second biggest instance in fediverse, Misskey.io. Their ads are community ads, like promoting indie games, vtuber, comic books, IRL gallery event, etc. They also did subscription providing additional cosmetics like Discord. Everyone's happy.

 

It’s been a while! This release, the first stable in a decade, was designed to have minimal feature changes from 3.2.2. The goal was to just cut a release that builds on modern systems, which was itself more than enough work. Further releases will include actual features and more normal changelogs. The version is 3.4.0 to avoid conflicts with forks that tagged things under 3.3.x. Moving forward, development will continue out of TypesettingTools/Aegisub.

Yep. SteamOS has Flathub, which is a software repository (like software store) that has so many alternative of Windows software.

Yeah, I acknowledge that.

It's just there's a concern that any FOSS project that developed by non-English speaker will "force taken" by another "Western" maintainer. If we want fediverse to be truly inclusive, language barrier is something should be taken care for further maintreamization.

Maybe we can learn from English Asia community (usually on Facebook group) that already practicing multi-language community, where each people can speak their own language and still properly moderated and connected.

I see. At least making them optional is good, especially for political context.

For creator related stuff, I can see instance like Misskey.design community benefitting from this tracker.

Having info "65 people visit this site from Lemmy.world" doesn't seem to be that invasive tho.

I can see blogger and other creator utilize this to connect with community.

I wish a lot of Western fediverse community helps Misskey dev in documentation and development.

It's sad that sometimes they don't want help Misskey community to globalize, and just soft-fork and even hard-forking the software. Misskey community is desperately need global contributor.

The thing is, sometimes the immigrant are not corporate. They're just groups of average people that cut all the protected forest to make a new home and uncontrolled killing of animals.

They don't respect local rules at all.

This don't really happen in the West, but it can happen in several parts of Asia or Africa.

That's why ethnocentrism ended prevalent in these area.

Twitter can reach various community from variety of region, like English Asia Twitter.

Entire fediverse is still mostly Western community.

I still don't get actual "left" and "right" definition by Westerner.

For example, people that support native people to be protected from encrouchment of their forest, as well as unmitigated immigration that will drive out them will considered both "left" and "right" side from Westerner.

Some Westerner also often assume their solution of problem is "the best" while all I can see is further division of society.

Please elaborate.

Both are just corrupt parties that doesn't want to help people.

"Left" or "Right" grouping is Western centric tho.

From my perspective as Indonesian, it's weird that Westerner lump politics into separate group instead working together for a solution that caters to everyone.

NeoDB itself is a clone of Bangumi, a Chinese media tracker site.

Bangumi mainly focuses on ACG culture (similar to anime-manga but not Japanese centric), combining movie, TV series, music, games, animation, and comic.

Hello everyone! I want to ask some recommendation of open source alternative to IDM with these feature:

  • Automically capture link from browser (especially Firefox)
  • Compact layout like IDM, no excessive theme
  • Still maintained
  • No silly "freemium" like FileCentipede
  • Video download indicator on browser, I mainly download videos from YT, NicoNicoDouga, Bilibili, Facebook Videos, Instagram, etc. Similar to: Video download indicator on browser
  • Properly detect non Latin character file name

I already research some options, but I asking directly to community might surface interesting underrated programs.

Thank you!
