I swear I missed this somehow.

Commenting for people in the future, Typescript can be used in the backend (and is actually pretty popular there for some reason).

It does federate though, federation is multiple nodes in a network cooperating, which they do.
HTTP is a network even though it doesn’t (usually) federate.

The main centralised part of bluesky right now is their decentralised identifiers right now.

DID:PLC is completely centralised. Its not actually a requirement for a did to be decentralised.

plc.directory is the only registry for them right now.

I agree, they really help.

I’d say just try it, it’s only a few minutes of your time, and if you don’t like it you can delete the accounts.

I probably was.

kbin lives on as mbin.

Check kbin.earth, for example.

The thumbnails are generated indivdually by each instance.

I just compressed all my images, thinking lemm.ee would outlive all the image hosts.

kbin was a lemmy compatible software.
It has all of the lemmy features, with a really nice ui and microblogging (like twitter).
kbin.social was the main instance, it had a lot of users.

The dev eventually abandoned the project, and kbin.social decayed untill it finally stopped working.

It was forked (code copied by a new group, to keep the project alive) by the mbin project.

https://kbin.earth/ is an mbin instance, for example, that’s still up.

Mastodon purges them after a while though.

I’m editing some of my posts to use those.

Not really, it means I can’t send every lemmy instance csam.

Sounds good, but maybe consider moving it to a non-piefed.social piefed instance.

I’m slightly scared of another kbin.social happening.

I’m trying to, but the docs require you to use systemd, and I’m running it in wsl. I can set the instance, but I can’t get it to use https for some reason, and piefed returns a 302 on any http request.

Actually, screwing around with it a bit, I think I got it kinda working by changing one string: “v3” to “alpha”.

Edit: changed image link. RIP lemm.ee

Clearly we need to make a fedd.it to become the dominant feddit.

I’ll do that in future.

Yeah, its in typescript.

I thought it said rust last time I checked it, this is probably a consequence of juggling too many tabs.

edit: changed image link. RIP lemm.ee

The main problem is I am shit at rust.

I am hoping that piefed implements lemmy’s api.
