@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social well it appears as though #youtube has now become a “gated community” the #YT frontends are not working. It prompts a login to prove you’re not a bot:(

@ProdigalFrog
Thanks!!:)
@xnx
A good explainer campaign of how it works practically is essential if it hopes to be adopted for sure. I know a bit, but still not clear on it. At some point credits need to be purchased. And as far as I understand it’s not something that is connected to a bank account.
@yogthos if only the West could sanction them;) It’s not like they’ve never used the economic card before, FFS
@ajsadauskas
That’s why #peertube is so important! Everyone should be migrating or at least mirroring there ASAP… It will happen.

@yogthos “shaka when the walls fell” ;)
@yogthos
This is brilliant!
I’ve always thought of our current system with it’s massive inequality like an engine that is not tuned right.
If a machine is constantly spilling oil and sputtering, it’s obviously broken and in need a major repair or rebuild.
How anyone could see money pooling in the hands of a few and leaving the rest dry as a success is unbelievable! It’s a clear sign of a broken system.
@deadsuperhero
Can we follow on #activitypub ? #Castopod would be a great option for the #fediverse
@yogthos
Of course Canada voted against it…good lapdog;)
@yogthos That makes sense, while raking in astronomical profits from money made out of thin air!!
@yogthos What a few weeks for Canadian politicians … Nazi’s weren’t enough, they needed to add Zionists to the list.
@Samsy
Wow, you were right very nice. Amazing what a little polish can do.
Another app that transformed with UI updates is gajim, the desktop xmpp client.
@Samsy
I’ll need to take a look, I haven’t used k9 in ages
@deadsuperhero
I agree, I use xmpp all the time, but the clients are really underwhelming… Not sure how it’s so complicated to give them a facelift to update them while keeping the existing functionality. This reminds me of the debates about the #blender ui in the past, where gray beards argued that the interface was just fine…aesthetics matter;)
@poVoq
@dillekant that’s the most incredible thing I’ve seen in a long time, thanks for sharing:)
@hoodatninja
You just described the reason yourself;)

Better yet, check out simplex chat https://simplex.chat/
It’s the best of all…user friendly as well:)
@maegul there should really be a license for that, which allows for free use in a non-commercial manner but triggers a responsibility to contribute back financially, even in a small way, when there is commerce involved.
This could provide a funding model for #FOSS #OpenSource projects that are exploited by the likes of #amazon etc that could and should be supporting them, for the value they bring.
@yogthos if only countries would quit putting #US resources under their land, everything would be fine;)
