mhmm. i also gotta say the immediate response of “this debt i accrued is your problem, you need to find a solution”, even if later backtracked, is definitely not a healthy immediate response. sounds like there’s quite a few things worth raising in counselling. i hope you manage to work things out OP

💯

also it’s not worth doing outside of much larger scale projects otherwise the admin work will just swamp any actual development time, imo

i’m not against better governance models, but the biggest problem in open-source right now isn’t control (imo), it’s unpaid labour.

it’s almost like a full marketing slide deck was conveniently handed to someone 🧐

i, too, have seen somewhat of a trend. i need to stop getting surprised when i spend time outside of gender queer and crip spaces lol

this isn’t the same as living your life with a disability. i’m not going to continue the conversation from here, but please do educate yourself as it’s not great still seeing such ableism on the left

this sounds spoken like a very able bodied person.

true, but it definitely isn’t framed in nicest way for those with disabilities, as aberrant individuals needing to be reintegrated with the rest of society. don’t get me wrong, the news is cool as hell, but the framing definitely doesn’t feel like a choice someone with a disability would have made :p

that still doesn’t mean inference is profitable. (which isn’t to say i give a shit about profits, but it’s a good indicator of economic viability even if socialized). inference still requires far more compute to complete a task than most previous means of doing so.

we have more performance issues developing gotosocial with postgres than with sqlite. if we supported multinode deployments or horizontal scaling such that sqlite’s concurrency got harder to reason-about I’m sure postgres would shine, but for a single process sqlite has been generally much faster and it hasn’t required anywhere near as much prompting to get the query planner to behave as required.

i also think when people assume sqlite is better for simpler applications, they think smaller. but no, for the same 25+GB databases sqlite has mopped the floor with performance.

single-process multi-threaded sqlite is fantastic.

why would you need to buy one, you can rent CPU time from the data center lords!

man these AI fanatics are cringe

this is so insufferable i’m not sure i believe they’re real

why on earth do font pack upgrades need to be part of full system updates.

i do not know where you get that impression. antisemitism, conspiracy theories and general racism are soooo common if you just browse one of the public feeds on primal, ditto etc. not to mention like 1 in 5 posts are just bitcoin posting.

we do have instances of fascist chuds on ActivityPub, but they’re at least a little less easy to run into if you go to our equivalent of a public firehose like mastodon.social.

i will say there’s parts of the nostr protocol i prefer over ActivtyPub, but you’ll never catch me anywhere near that nazi bar

we made some recent changes to our S3 storage driver in v0.20.2, please do let us know how you get on with it and if there’s anything more we can do to help!

bang-on. given he’s going to continue working on the project, the payday I’m a bit dubious of.

EDIT: honestly it continues to back up the opinion i’ve had of Eugen’s leading of mastodon for a long time. dubious, i wish he’d focus less on growth, but ultimately we could have done so much worse with our BDFL (well, not so much for life anymore lol)

gugal being a bit frugal with their releases
