There's already a scaled sort, that will boost the ranking of communities you follow ;). I hated (not) seeing downvoted posts on vegan communities.

I believe we should tackle the problems we can solve right now, if you can stop using cars and source locally, that's great.

Most of us can already change to a vegan lifestyle and stop contributing to intentionally killing animals that don't want to die. Once most people get onboard with that, then we should address accidental deaths.

No need to be pedantic. I'm pointing you to the Vegan Society, who actually created the term vegan. I'm merely trying to educate you on the topic. The dictionary definition is simplifying an entire philosophy, otherwise vegans would also be okay with horse and dog races, horseback riding, using animals as labor and other forms of animal exploitation.

Quote of the important part of the article (highlights by me):

The word vegan was coined by Donald Watson from a suggestion by early members Mr George A. Henderson and his wife Fay K. Henderson that the society should be called Allvega and the magazine Allvegan.

Although the vegan diet was defined early on it was as late as 1949 before Leslie J Cross pointed out that the society lacked a definition of veganism and he suggested “[t]he principle of the emancipation of animals from exploitation by man”. This is later clarified as “to seek an end to the use of animals by man for food, commodities, work, hunting, vivisection, and by all other uses involving exploitation of animal life by man”.

By that definition, animal testing is vegan as long as the end result doesn't contain an animal product, which is not. Veganism is about not exploiting animals as far as possible and practicable.

Cultured meats will be vegan, accidental roadkill is vegan, as well as dumpster diving, because you're not exploiting living sentient beings for that.

I made mine this year, but used pro micros instead of the nice nanos. Used a perf board to attach the controller and TRS connector. Zip ties to attach the perfboard to the case.

Yes, the proposal is something like Nostr, but the clients can also relay data on request if they're online. A little more decentralized.

Worth mentioning that the idea is not to make Lemmy abandon ActivityPub, but to allow further decentralisation.

There wouldn't be a need to keep all data like a blockchain to query all data since most sort by hot/recent. Something like Gossipsub would suffice for most users.

But whenever an user queries for old or specific data, the request could be directed to a relay that archives and sorts all data.

Not a completely different protocol when the changes are additions to the existing one. The same protocol would still exist and be supported.

P2p enabled instances would have the option to reverse the communication flow, so besides the servers having to send updates to subscribed servers, the subscribers would have the option to ping peers/servers for updates.

This would help with sync issues when a post is made and the changes are not propagated to all subscribers.

Events could be cached on the p2p network, so the phone only pings its peers for new content (mind the existing servers would be peers on the network).

[-] lalo@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

You wouldn't need to run the service 24/7, just whenever you're using Lemmy and maybe a few minutes after so your interactions can propagate trough the p2p network. Also the existing servers could be used to cache and relay.

What's the difference?

[-] lalo@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

Maybe Podman, then? There are many other alternatives.
