I think Voyager is based on the famous iOS reddit app (Apollo?) and is regularly updated. Looks really polished and I’m also using it on android next to sync.

I’m not putting words in your mouth, that’s what you said in your comment:

Only 40% voted for the DPP. 60% voted against the DPP. It’s just the 2 more pro-China parties got their vote split.

No evidence the TPP wants to fight to keep their freedom? From the article you linked:

China_ must know that it will have to pay a high price if it invades, said Ko.

And I already posted this from your article but here again:

The ruling Communist Party in Beijing counts Taiwan as part of its territory and has already threatened to use military means to force reunification. Ko said China demonstrates this every day, which is why Taiwan has no choice but to move closer to its ally, the US.

China is the one threatening with an invasion, but it’s the fault of the westerners?

Also: why so aggressive? Isn’t that a bit too western for you?

Engaging with China is a really broad thing to say, from the article that you posted about the TPP:

“Taiwan’s relationship with China is based on two principles: Deterrence and communication,” said Ko Wen-je from the TPP People’s Party in Taipei on Friday.

…

The ruling Communist Party in Beijing counts Taiwan as part of its territory and has already threatened to use military means to force reunification. Ko said China demonstrates this every day, which is why Taiwan has no choice but to move closer to its ally, the US.

You said the TPP is pro-china, like the KMT, but to me it doesn’t read like that at all. China wants reunification, the TPP is highly against that and is willing to fight for their freedom.

They don’t even consider themselves Chinese anymore, why would they want to reunite?

Copilot/Bing Search might put a big dent in that in the future. People will just ask an AI instead of “googling”.

You have to go first to “sources” and then it’s in the YouTube options

I’m supposed to be getting Linux tips from this guy?

No, this is Linus Sex Tips not Linux Tech Tips!

Valid opinion and immutable distros like silverblue might be where the future is headed.

It’s not the point though, I’m not going with a distro that tries to force their proprietary solution on me.

Sexual harassment allegations are not “drama”. And anyways, the comparison is in the way they apologize and not the damage they have done.

I’m on a german instance (feddit.de) and it’s federated with db0.

I think it’s just lemmy.world bullshit.

Has anyone read their post about their downtime?

“We shouldn’t close registration or limit the amount of communities because we’re not even the biggest instance in the fediverse”

Like, what?! The argument was always that they are the biggest in Lemmy! It felt like they were trying to gaslight the users.

Same as the other arguments, like new users being weirded out if they can’t register to lemmy.world or apps using them as default. So them being down all the time doesn’t matter? Or that lemmy.ml was the biggest instance and closed down registration and new users registered to other instances without a problem?

I’m really weirded out how hard they try to be the “main” thing on Lemmy.

I think it’s their counter-argument to:

“If earth is really flat, why do ships disappear behind the oceans horizon?”

“Water mountains”

Interesting! I tried it a bit more:

• I had “Undetermined”, “Deutsch” and “English” selected in my profile.
• I was able to set the comment to “Undetermined”, but then still not able to set it to “Deutsch” (back to “English”, worked though)
• Changing the word “homie” didn’t make a difference
• Other comments set to “Undetermined” were able to switch to “Deutsch”
• Other comments set to “English” (that were actually written in english) were able to switch to “Deutsch”

Seems like it’s a problem with this comment in particular, but I can’t figure out why!

Edit: I found another comment set to “Deutsch”, written in german, that can’t be changed no matter what.

I’m trying but the save button just loops endlessly…

What difference does it make? Aren’t you able to see the comment?

Alle meine Zuhausis hassen Waldorf Frommer!

I agree with your points and like the idea of more specialized instances and also country related instances. I think it’s solvable if the different admins work together.

Lemmy.world doesn’t have to go private, they could just not accept more users and communities for a while. It wouldn’t change much since everyone will still be able to post and comment on Lemmy.world from all instances. New users would just have to choose a different instance that’s all.

For me that’s the whole point, I don’t see any benefit of a big instance, the Lemmyverse doesn’t need one.

Understandable, but aren’t growth and instability related in this case? There are many instances with capacity that are already run by capable people. Just spread the load (ahem) across the Lemmy verse and only handle as much as you can. But maybe I’m missing a point, I just think that this would be the best for Lemmy in the long run.

How about another approach?

There is no good reason for Lemmyworld to keep on growing to an extent that this kind of overhead is necessary. The idea of Lemmy is decentralization and not creating a new reddit instance. Close your registration, limit your amount of communities and let Lemmy grow in other directions.
