I agree but also very unlikely it would make a difference if they were only sharing from their personal account.

“Spying” implies the user doesn’t know about it.

Virtually every platform collects this information, partly as a service to the user, so I don’t think it’s completely ridiculous.

One thing I do appreciate about Nintendo is that it works completely offline so if you don’t want them to have any info about you, you can keep it.

No.

I should clarify, I suppose. “Available” as in you can go into the settings and turn it on. I assumed there was something wrong with my personal install when it didn’t work but I guess it’s just not finished yet. Sorry about that.

I’m telling you as someone that self-hosts it that it is available.

None of those countries are trying to dismantle encryption entirely so no, I disagree.

You don’t have to self host Ghost. They charge a very reasonable flat fee.

It’s already available

E: “available” but not yet functional. Sorry.

Wouldn’t it be cool if these were built into their respective platforms!?

I think Sepia Search was actually integrated into PeerTube in the last update (7.1)

The only ones I know about are the ones with folding displays.

Discoverability in the fediverse in general (outside of Lemmy) is a bit shite. Best just to stay here with us.

Set up Jellyfin with Yunohost, it comes with all the fun security stuff built in.

IMO, Dan has some responsibility but more of it lies with Mastodon and other microblogging software that labels this post type as “private”, “followers only” or similar without any further explanation. It needs to be clear that it’s dependent on good faith and competence of remote servers that may collect that information.

Moreover we need to do a better job of letting users know that anything posted on the internet, and especially anything posted to the fediverse where it’s backed up on potentially thousands of servers, should be assumed to be publicly-visible and eternal. If nothing else, it will be backed up on the internet archive. If you want to communicate privately, this is the wrong place.

I wish there was a private social media platform but it seems like the closest we’re going to get is Signal.

Also “the bullying problem” has nothing to do with the Fediverse and everything to do with people in general and the erosion of nuance.

Ghost is open source, non profit and self host able.

Please read the article.

Okay now do videos

We’re not talking about takedown requests, we’re talking about bypassing DRM.

It’s not a “take”, it is a fact.

Stop commenting unless you have evidence to the contrary.

Yeah this just sounds like one of the drawbacks of a federated system. In order for people on remote servers to be able to see your “private” posts, your local server has to feed that info to them and trust them to handle it appropriately.

It really was. Do you not know what the DMCA is? It’s US law.
