What exactly did Palworld steal? Surely you have sources for your claims

You’re already free to support developers and instance owners financially if they’ve set up either Patreon, OpenCollective or LiberaPay 🤷

Problem is, not enough people are doing it. Case in point: https://join-lemmy.org/donate

Turns out you’re actually the owner of your home instance. I didn’t know that when I made my previous comments.

I’m guessing you’re currently paying for your instance’s upkeep out of pocket? I can’t spot any donation links on your instance. This might work for you personally, but do you really expect other, larger instances to do the same? Even donations are only rarely sustainable.

How do you expect your instance to cover its costs, then?

So how is your home instance financially sustaining itself? Surely you’re helping it, right?

XMPP didn’t die, so why would the Fediverse?

B-b-but the Fediverse told me that XMPP was embrace-extend-extinguished by Google!!?!

I hope one day we will find a method to finance websites operating costs without ads.

Never. People don’t want to donate, people don’t want to pay a subscription fee, people don’t want to watch ads. People want everything on the internet for free.

Your money is honestly better spent donating to new efforts like Ladybird or Servo.

So every negative news about Twitter, Instagram and literally every non-fedi social media platform is “relevant” too?

The post itself doesn’t even make an effort to connect this to potential benefits for fedi.

My problem is what others described: downvoting without actionable feedback.

This is exactly why I prefer instances that have downvotes disabled.

I switched to Pass recently after having used Bitwarden for a couple years. I’d say Bitwarden still has a slight edge in terms of features, but Pass has gotten good enough and it’s included in my Proton subscription.

So why does Proton work on multiple products at the same time? Simply because:

1. throwing more bodies at existing efforts has a point of diminishing returns and then a point when it even becomes counterproductive
2. given the lengthy minimum time it takes to perfect services, starting earlier lets us deliver more to the community over the long term

That’s why we bring new services to market earlier than some of you would like, but I can also say that it’s never done if we believe it would compromise an existing effort.

Proton would be absolutely awesome if it stuck to it’s “We’re better than GMail” plan and provided stellar email and calendar.

You’re saying that like those have now gotten worse than they were before.

There are separate mail and VPN plans. What are you upset about?

Welcome to Lemmy!

You might be surprised to find out that, just like everywhere else, Linux users are a minority among the Proton userbase.

Nobody on Linux puts such software in kernel space

Falcon Sensor is also being distributed for RHEL and Debian, and it caused issues there too.

Some instances choose to disable downvotes. If you downvote a comment that originates from one of those instances, it will have no effect outside of your home instance.
