I dunno, seems political… (/s!😜)

I wonder if it is more limited in certain contexts, such as on a mobile device (like on iOS? I don’t have one to test).

Do you mean… columns?

We’ll all get there, no need to rush.:-)

Bc this way gives profits to AI…

More like the present, unless you want to lose your job, capiche?

Not mine though.

Is this Lispth(or)?

Indirectly yeah? But directly a rock would be the earth.

It’s more like the sun gave the earth a hug and compliment and made it feel good, just before the earth passed that along to you. 🫂

It very well could be, yes. Or else simply do not care one way or another. That is a large problem with the current state of AI is how irresponsibly it is very often trained - i.e. ignoring the concept of consent, as the scrapers e.g. disregard the robots.txt declarations.

Always has been.

Oh yes I see. feddit.online reports a significantly lower uptime than PieFed.ca. Looking at that table, it seems quite rare among PieFed instances to have an uptime stat be that low - all of the other instances in the top 10 instances have >99.5%, and most other instances too. I do not know why.

I haven’t gotten any 504 errors that I can recall, but the entire Fediverse, and even the entire Internet, often comes under attack by things like bot scraping DNS attempts these days.

Here we are not the big boys like Google, Facebook, etc. to swat them aside so easily with our dedicated (and paid) team of expert professional IT support professionals.

These Fediverse instances are more like hobbies, outside of the largest ones like Lemmy.World, so some small amounts of downtime is to be expected.

Edit: the Fediverse Explorer shows uptime stats if you are interested - e.g. PieFed.ca shows 99.63%, which is exactly in-line with the other most populated ones. Hint: sort by decreasing Active Users to see that it is the #3 most popular PieFed instance.

Oh Redditors will always find something to complain about:-)

Meh, if someone wants to they can… though my point here was logical consistency: a question was implicitly asked (why don’t more people come here) and I responded with exactly why. It is what it is. We cannot both have our cake (be unwelcoming to people, especially those exact type of people) and eat it too (wishing more people would come).

It is not so easy to do when you are capable of so much.
