I didn’t read Solrize’s comment as saying “There shouldn’t be paywalls,” just asking the very legitimate question as to how they will interact with federation.

Interestingly, 404 just solved something kinda related: they developed a way for subscribers to get a custom RSS feed address, so they can access paywalled articles directly in their RSS reader. TMK, they are the first publication to do this. I imagine they would do something similar for federation. (I believe that if any of the custom RSS feeds show huge traffic numbers, 404 shuts it down, but I’m not sure)

Surprisingly, one of the only groups to use this calendar IRL was a giant international corporation: Kodak

There’s a push to get OpenReads to work with BookWyrm

Wow, that was it. Thank you!

Fair question! But yeah, I’m seeing this issue with my lemm.ee and not my lemmy.world

I’m confused. I’ve been using this extension for years on desktop without this issue. I think it has an option where you can install a companion conversion app on your machine and bypass the QR code. Am I mistaken?

Boots with the fur

It’s not real but I don’t understand who benefits from faking this

I’m sorry, I’m having difficulty following your point.

That’s a really, really crap argument that is permissive of all kinds of cultural genocide.

Isn’t it the opposite? He’s arguing that work of cultural importance should NOT be in private hands. You might say, “Who gets to determine what’s culturally significant? And why do we trust governments to do a better job than private collectors?” Those are fair questions, I think, but then I get lost again:

A LOT of artwork is in private collections that by no right should be.

Right, that’s what he’s arguing too.

I live in country that used to “legally” buy and sell people.

Ok, so… You acknowledge that just because it’s legal to trade in something, doesn’t mean that it’s moral or ethical. So is that also true of culturally-significant artwork?

See why I’m confused as to your argument?

Eh, “Good thing we had dangling pianos to drop on the guy who’s been cutting all the cords on our dangling pianos” isn’t quite a strong argument for the pro-dangling pianos side

It’s just reposting ABC News if that matters

Reader View is working for me with that website. The only issue is that it writes out the phrase “link opens in New tab” after every link.

Do you have cookie settings or extensions that might be interfering with something?

I’ve been using Beeper. It’s open source and built on Matrix bridges, also open source. For RCS you have to link it to your Google Messages

Thank you for this great tool!

Is there a way I could use this to find a Lemmy instance that let’s me interact with desired instances? For example:

• I want to participate in Instance A, B, and C.
• A has defederated from B and C
• can I generate a list of instances that let’s me interact with A, B, and C? Then I’ll move my account there.

Thank you!

Really? Coworkers, crazy people, assholes. There’s a lot of people who don’t fall into those groups, I hope

How do I do this

If you’re talking news media, much of their worst behavior is rooted in the ad-driven business model. Subscriptions would actually help make things better. Not sure if there’s a way to leverage the fediverse for a subscription play, though

I can install any app I want on my Mac. How is this different?
