Does it really, practically, impact things?

If people had to obey the law of "every country that has any internet presence", site operators worldwide would have to do such silly things as ban women from using the internet while not sitting right next to their husbands, or who knows what other silly things as per the Sharia. So I don't really see how any such thing is to be taken at anything but grandposturing from boomer political parties, at face value.

Now, if you want to ban Bri'ish IP addresses, your hosting can take care of that. For the most capable ones it's just a flip of a switch. But do consider that in some cases that makes your site worse for everyone else worldwide as such rules are sometimes implemented via privacy-invading systems (eg.: yet another control that makes your site depend on Cloudflare).

so, nothing has changed.

Nice!

As a comment in Youtube about the Aang vs Ozai video said, more or less: "There's Avatar, and there's the military movie about blue cosplayers".

See? CEOs get criminal liabilities! Capitalism works!

This. Sometimes a software is just finished. IRC itself has not seen change in like... about all the time I remember.

Starting up wikis is so easy nowadays that there's no excuse. I maintain a few Dokuwiki-based ones, it's my preferred engine for simple wiki stuff, but Mediawiki (the same one that powers Wikipedia) is not bad either and not really too difficult, just a bit more demanding storage-wise. Heck, you can currently fire-and-forget DW-based wikis on SDF's "one payment" access tier, even! Probably on Neocities too, haven't checked.

Sounds (heh) good in theory, but so far it hasn't been able to pick any radio in my country (Ar) or nearby. Inspector says any attempt to load a radio ends in a HTTP 403 error.

To be fair (and this is something I don't recall being established with or dealt with in the video) you need to at least trust that the backend is there. Currently if "lol CIA AWS" servers are not working, you don't have an option (Advanced Settings or whatever) in Signal to choose another provider, such as say a self-hosted community server.

I use SQLite to power up lots of stuff I'm working on. It's lightweight, fast, simple and well-documented for small projects — like a Postgres but very local. Saves me from having to deal with containers "just to store data", let alone for moving stuff to other machine where I would also need the permissions to configure and run containers in the first place; whereas all you need to pass SQLite databases along is scp / rsync.

Reason enough to deluse something else if possible/del read the docs.

. It's not like they can buy the Fediverse.

They don't need to. They only need to buy the admins. And we know that some admins have annouced they are for sale.
