Great idea! Instance-generic link: !lego@lemmy.world

Interesting legal ramifications that I wasn't aware of. Does Canonical own Ubuntu? from what I gather in the other comments, it doesn't really?

Absolutely fair point and warning. In the end we all need to earn money somewhere in order to live. I think the real greyscale distinction is not between "corporate" vs "community", but on whether there's some actor that can act whimsically while remaining unchecked. I believe that the two terms are being used in an oversimplified way in that sense.

Thank you. So in theory the community-driven derivatives are always free, at least in theory, not to depend from the upstream corporation-driven ones. So it's more a matter of possible implications in the workflow, than in not being really community-driven.

Thank you for the explanations! Which are the "most upstream" community-based ones? From what I gather, Arch, Debian, OpenSUSE?

Cheers – the "snap tangent" is something I wanted to understand as well.

Thank you – Canonical & Ubuntu's situation was unclear to me indeed, thank you for the clarification! My example was poorly chosen.

Thank you for the clarification! – And for the extra info about snaps, which was something else I was wondering about too (I use Kubuntu at the moment)!

Extremely convenient, cheers!

Hi everyone. I'm just a very new member in the SDF family. Very new to the Fediverse too. Peace, Love, and Unix to everyone.

What do they fill the anime episodes with, with respect to the manga? Do the two have large discrepancies?

I agree with your point of view and its advantages. Of course it's also a matter of degree. One can imagine the situation where there's one "copy" of a community per server, or even per person; now this is absolutely unrealistic, but there's a continuity of cases from that unrealistic situation to the present situation. Somewhere along that continuum, fragmentation becomes more negative than positive.

I didn't know this – cheers!

Now you made me curious. I've never read the manga. Cheers!

From what I understand – which can be wrong! – a couple of different things may cause this:

• People don't know they should check whether a community already exists, before creating it.
• People search to see if the community exists, but it doesn't appear in the search results of the instance/server they live in.
• People see that a community already exists, but they aren't happy with it and create their own.

It's a bit confusing, and unfortunately it causes fragmentation.

Sorry, I still haven't understood how to give an address that works "on all Fediverse". Let me know how to do that if you know. Cheers!

You had me at "final" 😂

I thought it was finished a year ago...

I think it's just to avoid lawsuits. The list includes journals such as the Frontiers ones that I personally consider predatory, but others don't and would probably react even more if "potential" were omitted...
