          or, even better, get Lemmy to integrate this functionality and let users opt-in.
          if I recall correctly, I have seen some Lemmy instance that made Youtube videos embed through the usage of farside.link
          actually, each Lemmy instance could double as a Farside instance, so that whole network doesn’t pressure (and rely on) developer’s instance

          having something like this would be very awesome
          well, first thing would be to open a feature request in Lemmy’s issue tracker and start the debate about what is the best way to implement this

    Good read. I also liked his recent interview with Adam Conover, came at just the right time with this wave of everything getting shitty.

    I’m also in the “let them burn” camp, hoping that’s gonna bring more people to open source platforms like lemmy/mastodon/etc.

    I work in marketing and only recently realised how closed the internet has become. I’ve always held that social media can come and go, people can use messenger and Twitter and Snapchat and insta all they like but email is a always a leveller that always works - then I found out about sending reputation. There’s a reason no one uses their own mail servers anymore, if you set up an email server on your own hardware then there’s a good chance that your emails won’t make it to the recipients behind spam filters. Basically, if you want to send emails now then you need to do it through an established service.

        You’re not wrong. If I am reading an article I want it to be short and to the point. Writing it like it’s a book is ridiculous. I’m not interested in a novel ffs. I’m not looking to be dazzled with clever phraseology and metaphors for days. Just explain the shit and get on with it lol.
