Because I have no knowledge or understanding of programing, can someone please eli5 how an open source program can remain encrypted and secure? Is it just a matter of good faith that jerks won’t mess with it or does the encryption programming itself have protections?
I’m all for this (tho I can’t do anything in it right now), but I was wondering what is the story (if any) behind the seal.
I haven’t been to the community, so I’m basing my response on your original post.
While I don’t like or agree with nazi bs and hate speech (conspiracy theories can be fun sometimes), I don’t see this as enough reason to defederate.
If they are outright condoning or asking for violence, that’s another matter. In that case, i would suggest petitioning the mods and community while including contextual examples.
“some images, many depicting graphic scenes of violence, self-harm, murder, rape, necrophilia, child abuse, bestiality and incest.”
Yes, people should absolutely be paid more, but there is no amount of money that can shield a person from the trauma caused by seeing such images.
I think there should also be some hard core investigating into how the companies got such material.
Maybe you know something about it…
If I see your comments, I will be sure to upvote you.
You and your family come first. I really appreciate all you do to make this instance available and work, but if this ever becomes a burden rather than a pleasure, I truly hope you will step away.
Well, Montpelier does desperately need its plumbing updated, but this was a state wide occurrence. We’ve had nearly a month of straight rain, then Sunday night into Monday night SUPER heavy downpours. The ground is so saturated and the waterways/rivers/dams so full, there was no place else for water to go.
Welcome to the club!
It’s not so much being the “product” that bothers me, as it is the whipping-horse manipulation to force us to give more more more with while they give less less less.
Just in case you didn’t see it, you can make a new community now.

Glad to help.
I can’t quote anything, but I believe the ability to create communities has been made temporarily unavailable until a way can be figured out how to stop or limit fake communities from being made. There was a huge batch removed from the instance a couple days ago.
Thank you for the money and time you put into making this instance work and keeping it working. I imagine the responsibility that comes from all this is both a joy and a burden.
Ticks were never an issue where I live until a few yrs ago, and then when I started seeing comments about people needing to check their cracks on reddit, I thought it was a joke. Big surprise to me when my partner said we needed to check ALL our creases.
Archiving is a good idea, but I don’t know how to do that. Any suggestions on a good guide or am I making it too complicated?
This and the constant lying while doing it!
