DekkerNSFW

I miss Tumblr. Yes, Tumblr still exists, but the Tumblr I miss does not. This stuff makes me wonder if we'll see an ActivityPub Tumblr-clone at some point, like Lemmy/Kbin to Reddit, Mastodon to Twitter and PeerTube to YouTube.

Begun, the git clone wars have.

I agree. A thing can be sensitive content for more than one reason at the same time.

I agree that the de-federation and attitude is worrysome, but I disagree on your stance towards more tags. Servers that disallow NSFW now, might choose to allow NSFW but not porn. Servers that allow NSFW now, are likely to keep allowing both. Servers just don't want to deal with liability and weird protocol quirks showing people stuff they don't want, so they'll ban any category that's likely to include stuff they don't want. More fine-grained tagging means they can ban a smaller selection of things.

I'm all for various kinds of tags to indicate why someone might not want to view certain content.

Yeah, this makes sense. The health of the instance we're on is our concern too. Since a Fediverse instance is not a faceless entity and doesn't pull the same capitalist shenanigans on its users, the users will probably be more willing to support it with donations if they see something like this. Many other donation-funded sites have something similar.

Initially, it's probably fine to have it included in the server rules blurb on the side, but it should probably just be part of the API for mobile clients, and possibly communicated to other servers too? So if some valuable content is on an instance that's not doing well, you can deal with that. If it regularly gets valuable content but can't sustain itself, people might donate even if it's not their home instance. Otherwise, it can be copied somewhere safe, if it's basically abandoned.

Okay, this is a good article. I was on the fence about Meta, wondering how they'd cause any damage, and this article cleared that up for me.

My last two phones both got slow as their batteries got bad, and were basically like new after replacing them. My current phone doesn't allow swapping the batteries.

For someone thrifty, being able to replace the battery can extend a phone's life 2x or more. Even if you don't want to keep using it, you could still resell it or give it to someone who doesn't need the newest phones. Non-swappable batteries are a form of planned obsolescence, in addition to just being more compact and probably a little cheaper.

That's a shame. Kbin seems to have a very Apple approach to its UI, dumbing things down and making it hard to find stuff. I like Lemmy's UI, but would like to be part of the fediverse and not just... the Lemmyverse.
