Hi @annika @signalapp,
this sounds dangerous to be accidentally "you're holding it wrong" misused. Unintentional #UX #trap?

Hi @benpate @gregalotl @julian @reiver,
maybe #GNU_Taler can simplify transfers of assets, including fiat currencies. But isn't that orthogonal to messaging and #ActivityPub?

Hi @netzpolitik_feed,
im Übrigen bin ich der Meinung eine #wehrhafte #Demokratie sollte 3-Strikes bei #Grundrechtsverletzungen in Amt oder Mandat auch gegen ihre Feinde von innen anwenden.

Hi @activitypub.blog @obenland @pfefferle,
do you know a backend I can send a DM/Follow Request/whatever and get back a status report about it's (and mine) #ActivityPub #RFC9421 signing?

Hi @obenland @activitypub.blog @pfefferle,
e.g. ok/fail, used algos, public keys used etc.

What one needs for debugging.

Why do you ask?

Hi @joelanman,
with due respect, it's not #html that struggles, but the habit of non-monolithic deployment thereof that makes us struggle.

But https://addons.mozilla.org/en/firefox/addon/single-file/ comes to a rescue.

@delta
does, thanks a lot for #deltachat!

P.S., unrelated: sadly there's no #FreeBSD client.

Hi @delta,
so the 1€ of https://www.ionos.de/server/vps#tarife should do?

Hi @benpate @j12t @tchambers,
oh, I see. I thought of near instant and frequent nomadic moves without a host-based identity. (Don't know why)

What do you think #WhatCorySaid @pluralistic means with "their account" - all interactions ever? With or without a time machine at hand?

Ask a sci-fi author and get a solution based on time machines. grr.

Hi @benpate @j12t @tchambers,
frankly I'd keep expectations at bay and not promise a smoother UX than when e.g. moving from Tiktok to Instagram. Or from WhatsApp to Threema. How does that work?

Keeping subscribtions and notifying subscribers would indeed be neat and should warrant a FEP, however.

Hi @benpate @j12t @tchambers,
ic. Paid subscription move sounds like an asset transfer. That's not moving curtains but vaults. You won't do that from akkoma to pixelfed but from paid service to paid service, will you? Who else but bandwagon is in that game? May GNU Taler help transferring value tokens? How shall the providers negotiate compensation? Similar to domain transfer (KK) maybe?

Hi @j12t @tchambers @benpate,
isn't #discovery without #webfinger (hostnames and dns in essence) a #fallacy and thus #centralisation in disguise?

I mean DNS is the centralised infra we prbly can't do without anyway - why not stand on that shoulder and not add another global registry?

Moving may be done via redirects (like IRL).

Lol @ulrichkelber,
ja, wenn #Gott gewollt hätte, daß wir #Fusionsenergie nutzen, hätte sie einen Reaktor mitten im Sonnensystem platziert…

Hi @ErikUden,
sag das der Versicherung und schlag einen anderen Anwalt vor. Dem Arbeitgeber nix unterschreiben ist eh klar, oder? Rechtsberatung gibt's auch direkt beim Arbeitsgericht und Betriebsrat, logo.

Hi @nic,
mein persönlicher Ansatz ist (außer faktenbasiert Wählen), u.a. dem #Bundestag Briefe zu schreiben. Pro Quartal einer. Immer wieder. An meine #Wahlkreisabgeordneten und den entspr. Ausschuß, bei (m)einem Thema #Bahn ist das #Verkehr. Sieht z.B. so aus https://mro.name/2025/bahn-1.pdf

Das wirkt mehr, als man denken mag. Dranbleiben ist wichtig. (Ceterum censeo)

Und @bkastl,
vielen Dank für das unermüdliche Engagement!

Hi @_elena, @pfefferle,
sure you do! You do something very few others do and so it's absolutely worth note:

You actually operate services for personal use!

That's the most democratic and brave act to do in the internet! And you write about it in the most encouraging ways!

Hi @gert @JulianOliver,
is that basic infrastructure effort related to what e.g. https://ffmuc.net (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freifunk) does with meshing?

Hi @julian @canary,
what problem are you solving? Why should the domains have to match? And bad implementations happen. #Webfinger

P.S.: Are you aware #webfinger isn't part of #activitypub?

Hi @julian,
if you can't use them, it's because of broken servers. How do you improve 3rd party servers?

Hi @julian,
I'd like to test @aSeppoToTry, how can I?
