I was the cool guy with all the chats in one place: Pidgin.

At this point Microsoft could use the .odf standard and people won’t notice that and they will be using MSOffice anyways.

Only a fraction of us would use LO or OO or anything compatible.

They even use System 76 hardware.

Better solution is a simple, selfhostable ID server that communicates with AP (and others decentralized platforms).

If I need to buy a domain to get my username, I would going to self host my system directly.

Do I lin?

I do with translations.

We need something more simple compatible with Lemmy for hobbyists and for those who don’t want to be all day setting up things every time.

I also was thinking about my own personal instance, because I want to see everything federated and then choose what I don’t want to see, but everybody’s tutorial is different.

Man, I miss the good ol’ times with “upload via FTP, run the “install.ext” file in a browser, setup database credentials and then you have it”.

Fediverse needs single-user applications.

Yep !boostforlemmy@lemmy.world

The idea behind federation is, that individuals host their own instance and connect (federate) with others individual’s instances.

But that’s not easy for less tech savvy people.
