  • If different groups of people want different things for society, in most cases only one of those groups can get what they want.

    It's good to push for what you want. But living means accepting that things cannot always go your way, and that sometimes things are going to go in the way of other people.

    Is up to each one how much they want to pressure, invest and fight for making things their way. And when to give up and accept that something is going to go other way and find ways to cope.

    I write this because what I'm lately seeing is people destroying their own mental health over some recent events. And that's not a healthy way to face the world I think. People have limited energies, and pushing everyone to fight all the time is devastating for some.

    Maybe reflect if you are causing despair in others or if you are feeling dread by current state of the world. Reflect how much of what you are feeling are forced and how much is in your own control. And for all that's in your own control try to be happy.

    At least that's my humble advice.

  • Not at all. I have my instance sitting on 100MG of RAM and 0% cpu usage. There's only 3 users that barely use it, but there it is.

    It scales by number of users.

    It's true that it's a resource hog, due to being written in python (who the hell though that), but it all depends on usage.

  • These are amazing years to take notes on who is saying "this will disappear" or "this will be the future" and making sure to stop listening those who assured something as certain and that did not end up happening.

  • I selfhost a matrix instance just for myself and my bots. And send myself notifications to the phone client element. I can even trigger a fake VoIP phone call for really important stuff.

    Notifications come through as any other message app notification. And calls do the same.

    In order to get all notifications and not destroy your phone battery I found out that you need to download the google play version as you need google services for notifications.

  • I agree. Straight up fascist out. Nobody need a fascist. But I do miss liberals (in the european sense) or conservatives /republicans (from US perspective).

    It gives little more variety to a place.

    For instance it would be nice to have people defending tariffs and getting some discussion on those, see different points of view and such. I like to be intellectually challenged, and it's hard sometimes when I agree with most people here in most topics and in the ones I don't agree people tends to be very hostile. I think that when most people think the same way that leads to some feral behavior to those who write any different opinion.

  • I don't mean fascist or nazis, obviously ban those. But, you know, the real ones. Not the "everyone who is slightly more right wing than myself is a nazi". I'm not right wing but I do enjoy the company of normal right wingers. And here sometimes it gets a little boring knowing that for most things everyone has the same opinion on most issues.

  • While nice to have and good for people who need it. I won't think it would have an impact of very high statistical relevance in userbase growth.

    As people with visual disabilities (the most common disability that needs adaptations for a social media service) is not a massive demographic group.

  • Userbase being more friendly towards different ideologies.

    People don't want to admit it. But this is a very toxic place for people who are not of a very specific ideology.

    And when confronted about it the usual response is "I don't want people thinking like that here" which is a rephrase of "I just want people like me here". Which is ok, but inconsistent with a wish for growth as the idea of people turning your ideology because you think you are so convincing it's a fantasy.
