  • “can you recommend an alternative?” no. that’s why I’m so fucking angry.
    davidgerard@circumstances.runD davidgerard@circumstances.run

    @R3yScale @zzt my starter suggestion was "signal but with defined groups of groups", which replaces a lot of the important chat server function of discord

    getting it into signal, that's another question of course

    @anhedonie @joegaffey @zzt

    the key problem is that nobody wants to run a box

    they want to use a service

    that ends directly at discord

    mastodon has the advantage that it actually successfully decentralised, and 75% of users can and do tell eugen to go whistle

    it has the disadvantage that you can see the wires and plumbing and worst, the guys loudly telling you that the leaks and sparks and flames and outages are features akhully

    @tux0r @DrCuriosity @t_var_s @zzt i'm not sure you understand the question at hand.

    @DrCuriosity @t_var_s @tux0r @zzt discord basically worked in ways irc didn't. if you don't understand that, you don't understand the question.

    @DrCuriosity @t_var_s @tux0r @zzt

    IRC's fragile spanning tree structure is the root problem but i don't know how we'd do cross-tree links without all sorts of weirdness

    there's probably a solution involving terrible hand rolled cryptography that also doesn't solve the problem

    (as with so many such problems)

    @anhedonie @joegaffey @zzt if they can't telnet 6667 can they even really be allowed to use the computer

    @matthew @zzt "we'll always have mastodon" (foreboding)

    very much the network of last resort, but not first unless you're a goddamn weirdo like us

    @t_var_s @tux0r @zzt fsvo. distributed irc was shit in extremely tired ways, somehow combining the worst of decentralised with the worst of feudalised. it only "works" on a single well-run server, and we're back to the original problem.

    i met my wife on irc, i have a fondness for it. it still doesn't answer the question.

    @joegaffey @zzt if your answer starts "well i'm a snide hipster, but" then you have singularly failed to understand the question

    yeah it's just the renderer. someone did a browser wrapper but the rendererer is still changing. but i expect there'll be a browser with all the browser stuff soon as servo is usable for real work.

    @jaffathecake @froztbyte @ZBennoui @reflex @ddelemeny this is a very thudding and obvious attempt to distract from answering the actual question

    you need to be more subtle to pull this one off

    @thehighseas@ioc.exchange @jaffathecake @duke_of_germany @firefoxwebdevs Jake is furiously throwing up anything he can to distract from the question of AI in Firefox. That is literally the job he is paid to be here to do, yes.

    this article is AI shilling, nonsense and that should have been obvious at a glance
