I think this could be a ticking DOS time bomb.
Someone manages to spam upload massive files to the largest Lemmy instances could wipe out a ton of smaller ones.
Not to mention scalability wise this seems like a nightmare… eventually the largest Lemmy instances will have petabytes of media data with 100s of gbs coming in per day, giving other instances no chance to sync with them.
I think the system architecture needs a significant review. This won’t scale.
And a continent is just a really big island.
Therefore a continent is actually just a big mountain.
I’m gonna miss wefwef honestly, the name really grew on me.
Porn is literally what drives technology innovation.
Porn on Reddit was probably a good 10-20% of all it’s traffic.
As history has shown, a lot of the features that come to Lemmy will be added because porn. Embedded videos for example.
And as far as I can tell it’s just pictures right now.
Yea but the difference is most instances have ethical reasons for banning certain content.
Meta could randomly decide anti-meta content doesn’t belong on their platform. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is already the case.
This article has been circulating around the fediverse and I think it greatly illustrates why it's so important to defederate from large corporations before they can get a foothold. It's about so much more than just them getting our data.

I switched from my lemmy.world account to this one because I assumed this instance would defed from meta.
Let say you comment somewhere that you make minimum wage, their algorithm picks up on it and now they have you as a low wage earner in their database.
This is a massive over simplification but illustrates the point.

I had to re-login on voyager, my account had mysteriously disappeared from the app this morning.
I do wish there was a way for admins to send a notification to people when they revoke login tokens to avoid confusion. This will almost certainly happen again at some point.
