  • Hey, I see you have experience with Lemmy and I don’t see any place to ask this type of questions.

    I was checking a community in an instance and realized that there were no federated posts. Are federated posts only visible from the ALL view? I was hoping for community browsing to also have a federated experience to enhance content. For example, if I want to browse the Gaming community of an instance, why shouldn’t I see gaming communities from other instances?

    I understand this type of federation would require more interaction than instance to instance federation, but still, would be amazing to see more content when checking communities.






  • Isn’t general relativity just a way to interpret reality instead of what reality is?

    I mean, just a very accurate model of reality. But anything can be anything in any model, which is cool as long as the model has some kind of utility.

    (?)

    Or, are we accepting that objectively gravity is definetely not a force?






  • Capitalism generally allows for a range of ownership structures, including traditional privately owned businesses, publicly traded corporations, and worker-owned enterprises.

    I guess an argument would be that privately owned companies are already too wealthy to allow for fair market competition, but in worker owned companies nothing is stopping them from becoming large corporations that can also do everything a private lobbyist company does. If you don’t believe me, just look at your democratically elected capitalist government. Just because something is democratic doesn’t mean it will be ethical or fair internally or externally.




  • This is a discussion I’m also interested in. Migrating a monolith to microservices is a big decision that can have serious performance, maintainability and development impact.

    Microservices can be very complex and hard to maintain compared to a monolith. Just the deployment and monitoring could turn into a hassle for instance maintainers. Ease of deployment and maintenance is a big deal in a federated environment. Add too much complexity and people won’t want to be part of it.

    I’ve seen some teams do hybrids. Like allowing the codebase to be a single artifact or allowing it to be broken by functionalities. That way people can deploy it the easy way or the performant way, as their needs change.
