I tried and really had problems with mail servers sending my mails straight to spam even with DKIM, DMARC, etc. I ended up using the free mail service that comes with my domain.
Discord has been rolling out terrible features lately instead of improving the already existing ones. Messages still aren't E2EE and third-party clients are against TOS.
We have !animesuggest@ani.social but it's kind of empty (be the change you wish to see or something!). It needs a new moderator though because admittedly, I won't be able to take care of all the communities here at ani.social.
I think it's interesting to look into but it might be abusable. The payment system will be so complicated on top of the legal issues that one would need to deal with.
True. I never understood the need for it to be so mainstream social media-esque. I do understand that to some degree a chat application is social media but it doesn't need to have so many unnecessary "features" (aka "bloat"). The last good feature was desktop screensharing.
Firsr time I've heard of Spacebar. I like the name but could Matrix also be an option? I've been using that for quite some time and a lot of open source projects have a Matrix space nowadays.
I wouldn't like it. I felt like Threads wasn't going to interact much with Lemmy in the first place and it would've been a Mastodon-only problem. Extending it to have a "Reddit-like mode" will it make it significantly worse for us.
Great work! I too am a ๐คฎ Bakemonogatari ๐คฎ fan and I'm happy to have Shinobu hosted at ani.social! I'll do my best to maintain that uptime for the sake of the bot!
We could unscrew the chassis of the computer and take whatever hardware we wanted to lol. We never actually got anything but we'd remove the RAM or unplug a hard drive and put it back.
We also found games hidden in certain directories. I even saw someone playing Undertale.
I also found a torrent client running on start up on one of the desktops seeding some movies.
If it counts, we used a program to throttle other devices' WiFi speeds. I forgot what it was called.
People have gotten so used to the "simplicity" and "ease" of other platforms that any change to them is a nuisance.
