  • Question re: PeerTube's pubkey IDs

    Jump

  • @julian I am affected by it as well, which is strange because previously federation with PeerTube worked fine. Perhaps they broke it in a recent release

  • Question re: PeerTube's pubkey IDs

  • @julian Did you report this bug to PeerTube?

  • Potential Decentralized Fediverse Alternative to Ko-fi, Patreon, etc.?

    Jump

  • @Fitik @Teknevra Tipping will also be supported in the future (in addition to subscriptions).

    And people on other platforms may put addresses in profile fields (Lemmy doesn't have them yet?). Mitra displays a donation icon when address is detected (the name of the field should be like $BTC).

  • @5dh @fediverse Financial incentive is not the only possible cause. If project leaders stop listening to their users for some other reason, you'll get the same result.And there is another, more subtle problem: protocol bloat. Fediverse services are getting more and more complicated, and the cost of creating a new platform is constantly increasing. If this problem is not addressed, at some point Fediverse will start looking like a web browser market, where new players can't compete due to an immense implementation complexity.

  • Is Monero better than other anonymous coins, like ZCash and stuff?

  • sub.club Emerges to Offer Paid Fediverse Subscriptions

    Jump

  • @deadsuperhero @fediverse @quillmatiq Protocols described in these FEPs are currency-agnostic and developers can build actual platforms and solutions on them (as I did). This is the only ongoing effort to bring a payment layer to the Fediverse - there are no alternative proposals. FEP-8c3f was withdrawn in favor of FEP-0ea0.

    Okay, you didn't know about it. But now you do and it would be nice to include at least some of that information in the article.

  • sub.club Emerges to Offer Paid Fediverse Subscriptions

    Jump

  • @deadsuperhero @fediverse You cite an abandoned project and withdrawn WebMonetization FEP and then say "most efforts have not advanced beyond the planning stages". This statement is misleading because those planning stages are far behind us. Mitra had subscriptions since 2022 and there are other projects that provide monetization options, like PeerTube Lightning plugin and PeerTube Premium Users plugin. FEP-0ea0 and FEP-0837 were published and implemented. Your co-author @quillmatiq should be well aware of these developments because we talked about it

  • @deadsuperhero @fediverse

    Why did't you mention Mitra, the open source and fully decentralized Fediverse service that also offers paid subscriptions, and which has been around for several years?

  • Is there any real or serious conversation or work around the idea of a feature-full social media browser?

    Jump

  • @maegul @fediverse Some ActivityPub implementations already work as social media browsers. For example, my server can interact with microblogs, but also forums, blogs, events etc. The more activity / object types are supported, the closer software is to a browser.

  • @nihilist @monero Consider the following situations:

    Bob and Arbitrator are colluding against Alice Bob and Arbitrator are the same person

    I think this system needs a higher authority to function properly. And there's a simple non-technical solution to this problem. If you don't agree with Arbitrator's ruling, you make the case public and provide proofs. As a result, Arbitrator's reputation is destroyed.

    Someone can even create a rating service similar to @kycnotme that will list arbitrators with good reputation

  • @OrangeFren @monero Activity in Lemmy network might have subsided since the Reddit Migration, but it is certainly not dying. Today there are 768 instances with the largest one having 18469 MAUs.The important thing about federation is that there is no downside. You get a regular forum with all benefits of a self-hosting, but now people don't have to register on it in order to participate. For example, monero.town currently has 83 MAUs, and you can access that audience for free simply by using a different software.I previously mentioned Discourse, which has a federation plugin, but it is not the only forum engine to choose from. NodeBB is working on federation (almost finished), and Flarum too. These engines will be fully interoperable with Lemmy, and partially with micro-blogging apps like Mastodon and Threads.So, yeah, you're right about this being an uncharted territory, but I see a lot of potential here

  • @OrangeFren @monero Why make a non-federated forum? You can run a Lemmy or a Discourse instance, and let people from monero.town and beyond participate in discussions. Otherwise there won't be much activity

  • @tedu @articleinterop There might be popular services where name is ignored completely but <h1> in content gracefully degrades. If that's the case, <h1> (or <h1> plus name) would be preferable.

    AFAIK Mastodon doesn't have this problem and will display Article.name. I don't know about the others.

  • Tipping XMR with proof of concept with Lemmy plugin system

    Jump

  • @gunnm @monero The address from profile field can be displayed near each comment. This is how tipping button works on my site.But if you want to count tips, and do it for each comment separately, that's much more complicated. I don't know if plugin system will be powerful enough for this.

  • @gunnm @monero

    There is no social media using tipping as piconeros

    There is, I'm using it right now. Try to click on the "fediverse" icon near my comment, and on my site you'll see a donation button.

    looking for opinions and discussion of this could be done in Monero.town

    The easiest way is to convince Lemmy devs to implement profile fields: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2411

    After that you can add a machine readable XMR address to your profile
