Oh, I get that theory, though I’m not sure I completely agree. Either way, unless I completely misunderstand how ActivityPub works, their instance can effectively be isolated to its own little sandbox depending on how many other instances decide to share with them. Further, if you’re on an instance that decides to share w/ Meta’s, you can skip over to another one that doesn’t. So Meta can be isolated by instance owners and/or users.

Let them! There’s nothing saying other instances have to federate with them. Kind of the beauty of the whole thing, really.

I’m surprised I don’t see more of this. Especially given that they all use ActivityPub. I know kbin is different than Lemmy, but an “all-in-one” app would be great.

Agreed. So far, I think it’s my favorite of of the dedicated apps. wefwef.app is also pretty good.

Interestingly, I’ve been trying to push my HPC customers towards SLES and Ubuntu LTS. SLES has better extended support for minor releases (that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg), and Ubuntu’s LTS… for obvious reasons.

It still can be! ;-)

It’s not. One of the remaining devs posted that they’re working on getting a new Testflight invite going.

You’re probably right, but unfortunately my day job doesn’t like me spending all day tracking new apps! I threw this together this morning in the hope that it might help a bit. If there’s a better way, and there probably is, anyone is welcome to tackle it.

Thanks, updated!

Just did… actually lasted longer than I expected! Someone was removing all the community links and replacing them w/ the code repo links. Restored and cleaned up. The access is now comment only to anyone w/ a link.

Sorry if that came off as dismissive. Was just saying Lemmy/Kbin/Squabbles(?) apps are “so hot right now.” Don’t want to chase down every rumor until there’s something more tangible than an “I’m doing this” post. I agree, it sounds great, though!

Nice! Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up, but right now that has to be considered a rumor. Until there’s at least a community and/or repo, it’s vaporware.

Fair point. I’m keeping an eye on it right now. If it gets out of hand, I’ll do that. Everyone seems to be behaving so far, though. Fingers crossed.

Maybe it’s the news outlets I frequent, but I haven’t read anything describing the protests as a failure. Anyone want to provide a source or two?
