I’m actually surprised to see this blog post coming from Discord. This was actually a good read.

You can’t finance a massive project like that with donations. This isn’t like Signal or some small project like that. Firefox is MASSIVE.
Breaking news. Learned something new today.

Dude Lemmy feels so much more alive. On Reddit I have like 100 comments and 0 Karma and 0 responses. No interaction at all. Every upvoted comment is just some random generic garbage farming for validation. Lemmy is SO much more live!
Reddit is full of Karma farmers.
I still use Reddit for the funny videos and nieche communities I don’t get on Lemmy. But I have to constantly block accounts because they are blatantly farming. Super annoying.
I usually block every account that’s reposting and has more than 100k Karma.

I already have a full backup of the entire English Wikipedia using Kiwix. It’s surprisingly small. Around 100GB.
It’s not federated, the developer is specifically against federation. He didn’t even support self-hosting properly and officially, until the community made pullrequests in this regard themselves. Revolt is mainly made to be hosted by the developer himself. Probably just another Discord. Open-sourcing the code doesn’t do anything.
I have it behind a proxy and IPS. I force my users to have strong passwords. I don’t see why this would be a problem.
