Whoever wrote this blog post missed the point in the way the fediverse is decentralised.

It's not about hosting. It's about ownership. And that means hosting can change at any moment. Because no one company decides anything.

That's why we really want the fediverse. Because it's not build for late stage capitalism and monopolies.

Amazing work by the EU.

Let them try. They can probably delay it for maybe a year, but they absolutely will get fined 10% of global revenue.

Would also be nice if some of them started to suck so much on purpose, that other tech companies would gain traction.

Amazing and terrifying that EU seems to be the only world government to actually stand up against this late stage capitalism dystopia.

These rules actually makes sense. They actually protect both consumers and other companies around the whole world. And most importantly; they tackle a real world problem head on.

Bold. Bold to ask about Firefox alternatives on Lemmy.

Might as well criticise Linux while you're at it.

Hamas, the government of Palestine, is the enemy.

Yeah, if you side with the oppressor. You know that Israel starved Gaza for 3 weeks before Hamas even responded?

They literally cut off food, clean water, medical supplies for 3 fucking weeks before the first attack. People's family were dying in the hospitals completely unnecessarily.

Ask yourself if you honestly think that anyone else would act differently. Do you honestly think that you would act different when you see your father/mother/brother/sister die because Israel blocked off all your help because of "politics"?

That's the story that doesn't reach the US and many places in the western world. How it all began.

And if you really want to know how Palestine has been fucked over, you'd have to go back to 1945. When you know the history, there's no fucking way you would side with Israel.

War is always political or religious.

They always have a choice. One solution is just more profitable than the other.

If Israel would fall or weaken, that would also mean that the only country in the whole middle east, that doesn't hate the US with all their guts, would be a weaker ally.

And they absolutely will, if they go through with it. EU uses the "spirit of the law" approach, so there's no way they'll get out of this.

Also very good points. This is in general a very good move by the EU, and I'd wish we had it as a currency in my country.

It's also a choice to use, so if you don't like it then keep use your VISA/MasterCard.

With this digital euro, all fees are paid by the EU. Which is the right way to do it. It shouldn't cost anything to spend and transfer money - just as it doesn't with cash.

I can't get my head around how much money VISA and MasterCard is pulling out of society today.

How banks take fees for you to do a simple money transfer.

Scumbags.

You can.

Only once tho.

Funny thing, Jesus was the biggest socialist world wide. He only lost his shit for real 2 times in the bible and both were because of capitalists.

Pretty ironic for the good 'ol Republicans. Evil fuckers.

Agreed.

But it's just a little hypocritical to not use reddit because of this, if it turns out it's much worse to use Lemmy in this regard.

Ehm, they don't show up magically.

You have to backup directly to your new phone, otherwise it won't get transfered.

I just did this, and I can 100% confirm that not backuped data won't go to the new phone.

No it's not.

I'm referring only to the fact that poor people have it much worse than rich. That's not fun nor a joke.

Probably, but could might as well be any other 3rd world state.

And why would anyone believe they'd stop if it wasn't legal.

Question: Wouldn't Lemmy instances easy be able to this without many users knowing?

And would they also be able to sell data from other instances, because they can load data from federated instances?

Show it then.
