Biggest thing so far is "go slow on federation". Large federated servers are where you get into trouble with resource requirements and needing to spin up workers, etc. Small, private servers are relatively easy.
I'm messaging Facebook users over Matrix via the bridge.
That is fair.
IBT Media introduced a number of bad practices to the once reputable magazine and mainly focused on clickbait headlines over quality journalism. Its current relationship with IBT Media is unclear, and Newsweek's quality has not returned to its status prior to the 2013 purchase. Many editors have noted that there are several exceptions to this standard, so consensus is to evaluate Newsweek content on a case-by-case basis.
Lines up with the "nothingburger' headline. Probably case-by-case is appropriate. Thanks for showing me that!
For the record I can't comment on this specific article - it may be a nothingburger. I just think Newsweek itself is not inherently problematic.
Are you thinking of NewsMax or whatever? Newsweek AFAIK is a run-of-the-mill average news source - no NYT but certainly not NY Post.
Water, that "great big tap in Canada"
I can try to write some stuff up, it's not super complex. Core requirement for my setup is Docker + a domain. I recommend Linux host but you can make Docker Desktop work.
Let me write some stuff down this week.
I'm running a Matrix server with a FB Messenger bridge via mautrix-meta and that makes it a clear winner. Half my group chats have migrated entirely since I've set my close friends up with accounts in my server and they also use the bridge. The fact that people can slowly migrate chats without losing messages or groups is killer for adoption imo.
Ah that's true, good point. Got a bit carried away.
We still aren't paid for the rest of our NORAD hosting though, nor the highways we have to maintain to Alaska, nor...
Not so sure - yes don't feed the trolls but we can't just let them control the narrative. When Elon starts posting made-up polls on Twitter showing Canadians want to join the US, we need to have started the precedent already that that is a lie. I say, don't give up any space for free.
You don't pay us for NORAD dipshit. We've been trying for years and the US won't pay up. We host your nukes, your early detection warning systems, for FREE.
Parasite.
