wonder if regular carpet bombing the open subs with a black “Reddit is killing third-party app (and itself)” might be effective? gives the mods an “out” because it’s not against TOS - and if it were widespread enough eventually a few of them will hit front page
shower thoughts… and still on my first cup of coffee to more just musing than anything …
if storage is the concern wonder if the lemmy roadmap might one day include an option to use cloud based storage?
azure storage at .06/gb per month is likely cheaper and more redundant than local storage - even if you factor in calls to the blob which could be lowered via caching.
cloud storage potentially might one day lead to a option for smaller self hosters to opt into a shared blob instance where the and cost is shared.
in this scenario security to ensure the cloud blob couldn’t be deleted would need to be thought through (maybe splitting the password among multiple admins with each having one part of the whole?) but might be one way to better encourage more self hosting for them compute side of things.
great idea-i’ve been toying with the idea of buying a 3d printer but struggling to justify it. more things like this might change that.
great info thank you!
that’s a great job! you seem to be a natural at this. if you go down there rabbit hole on this do a web search for invisible mending - it’s crazy how good they can fix things that most of us would say are irreparable.
new refugee - hello and thank you for welcoming us 🙋🏻♀️ very first of what i’m sure will be many posts here in the fedverse. nice to meet you all!
reddit know the list of named 3p apps out there are. likely tens not hundreds.
they could have implemented an api management solution to charge those folks differently than what they charge a corporation training lllms.
i sell this solution to enterprises for a living and it’s not technically hard to implement. truly. thousands of companies large and small with fewer resources than reddit have done it.
reddit could have done it in less than a couple of hours and charged a fair rate to these developers while making bank on ai.
but no, spez the egocentric jackass chose this path instead.
corp controlled social media is both dangerous and toxic. the only way to fix this is to burn them to the ground so burn it we must.
deleting my reddit account & data on the 30th and watching the latest developments re: blackouts, communities going indefinitely dark even today … with excitement for the future.
would have never thought in just a week i couldn’t go from loving to loathing something so much.
hopefully whatever you were making with that sour cream will survive the beef rawhide replacement 🤣
