I hope they start supporting people who want to run an indexer. Right now they just point to their source code and say, “if you can get this largely undocumented complex service running on your own, you can run a indexer, but don’t ask us for any help”.

I’m not entirely confident that it will happen before their only funding source decides to cut off the cash flow.

The Justice Department’s lawsuit filings say the states violated long-standing federal law that prevents eligible voters from being removed from the voting rolls within 90 days of a federal election.

The law and order party doesn’t like following the law.

Interesting comments there. Thanks for the pointer!

This is great! Thanks!

there are distinct cultures between different instances and it is a strength of the Fediverse that instances are not just faceless pieces of infrastructure, i.e. pipes to content, but rather thriving communities with real people behind them.

Yeah, that deserves emphasis.

That instances are the interconnected nodes that make up the network.

I would even just use the word “parts” instead of “nodes”.

A bot shilling for Musk or a person shilling for Musk because they bought the hype are basically the same thing.

It’s the scale that changes. One bot can be replicated much easier than a human shill.

This is a solution in the same way that PGP-keys are a solution. There’s a big gulf between the theory and implementation.

That’s not how it works on Android phones. Different Android phones will work differently based on the manufacturer and customization of the installed OS.

That certainly doesn’t seem sustainable at all. You need to take care of yourself and I think you’re making a good decision.
