If you want a really good book comparison, the short story "Manna" starts off with an AI being used to manage a fast food joint.

Global powers see Wikipedia as fundamental target for manipulation— The Times says Wikipedia was "hacked" and calls it an "important victory" for Jeffrey Epstein

Yep. Grabbed mine a few years ago because of the writing on the wall. I'll treat it like those old school hardback encyclopedias.

VPN only with ID check in UK?

Hm well Britain did try to fine 4chan. Amusing conceptually but it does mean they're not above picking on website owners for not complying with their rules, regardless of where they are based.

Wonder if the owner didn't appreciate someone taking a picture of their cat/window.

Fluxer is another open-source Discord alternative

I find it also helps the cost is the same as old Nitro was which is pretty affordable IMO.

You're not wrong, but I agree with the person above you. I have an RSS feed but whenever something really stirs my interest I generally want to share it with someone and get their takes on it. Genuine discussion, even if it's vanishingly rare, is still something I crave.

Did someone try to censor "FUCK" and someone else added it back?

Excellent.

What are some discord alternatives that we can suggest to our friends?

Jump

other_cat @piefed.zip 2w ago

Fluxer. It's struggling a bit with the influx of users but the dev has been working feverishly to patch, should be smoother at some point this week. Current patch is in testing now.

Discord walks back age verification fears for most users

Jump

other_cat @piefed.zip 2w ago

Agree headline is misleading. "Walking Back" implies reversing course, that is not happening.

Plus we all know how great AI age verification is. Big empty "reassurance" there.

One of my friends' husbands brought it up, so good old word of mouth.

I did notice I wasn't able to get logged in last night, though the night before I was able to make an account without issue. I wonder if they got a hug of death like Stoat did.

I got the self hosted version up and it looks like it's a much older version than their current iteration which was a kick in the teeth. Nothing discouraging quite like "Well you can self host if you don't mind a worse version of the product". Like my dudes I'm trying to take some pressure off of your server...

Fluxer apparently has that on their roadmap. https://blog.fluxer.app/roadmap-2026/

As part of #3, I'd also like to add the ability to publish forums to the open web. That way, people can discover, archive, and access discussions without logging in.
