  • This. Your data is stored in .md text files so even if Obidian somehow stopped being the best your data is so easy to move around.

    Also add to your list mega.nz works for syncing Obsidian across many systems.

  • I think most search engines are not optimized for this. I'm sure it's changing but might take some time.

    Google historically penalizes duplicate content and selects one source as canonical, usually whichever domain is the most authoritative. When it comes to lemmy, whichever instance hosts the community should probably be the canonical source.

  • Fascinating... I knew some of this and it is indeed troubling.

    It seems that Brave's mission is actually about generating revenue by any method possible (including manipulation of end users) more than anything to do with privacy.

    If you're cool with all that then Brave is for you I guess.

  • I used mailspring for about 6 months because I love the idea and it looks beautiful. But when you check the forums you see people are complaining about major bugs that seemed to remain unfixed for eternity, developer never comments.

  • I know we're in a meme community but this did get me thinking... Not only is the Earth spinning but it's also in an orbit around the Sun which is also orbiting around the center of the Milky Way which is moving through space relative to other galaxies and so on.

    Do we have enough information to calculate a position in space in the future for Earth without a fixed reference other than current point?

  • Haven't checked in a while but is there any hope for cloud storage of the image library yet? I'm kind of holding out for S3 support because I don't want to manage multiple terabytes locally.

  • It's a difficult problem to sum up because there are so many reasons this is happening, and I don't think it's all malicious.

    At the core there is a general disrespect for any authority in American culture and it's easy to believe stories that a government-mandated medical intervention is somehow not as safe as they say.

    It doesn't help that there have been government programs in the past that were harmful and the knowledge was only made public after it was too late. Very few people believe the government has the people's best interest in mind.

    Individuals are only capable of understanding a very limited amount at one time, and rely on their tribe to inform them of almost everything else. These days there's a tsunami of information that is impossible to process completely. So it's just human nature to trust a small selection of sources and does usually offer a survival advantage.

    So it's not hard to see how smart people can fall for misinformation especially when they are inclined to doubt authority.

  • It seems like the most significant new feature is called anti-gravity which is kind of an allow list?

    We've had white lists for a long time so I'm not exactly sure how this will impact the system. That being said I read through the release notes and there are a lot of changes and improvements throughout the system, so congrats to them team on the 6 release.

    I've had pihole running on my home network for years and I love it.

  • I think it's funny because it's true. Long form written communication used to convey a lot more subtlety than just its content. It's a tradition that we will lose a bit like other formalities because it no longer tells you useful information about the sender.

  • Honest question, what are the incentives for instance operators to play nice, so to speak? And not just recreate new oligarch safe havens?

    It seems like each instance is a miniature zone of centralization and it's still incumbent on individuals to create their own circles of influence. For better or worse that's how we get hivemind echo chambers and I'm not sure it's even in human nature to seek anything else.

    Alternatively we have to rescue our friends and families when they start to fall for BS and educate them aggressively on improving the sourcing of their information.
