Hey Shadow: Is the mechanism for donations, now active?

OK I’ll check again at the end of June. Tanks.

but probably not by the end of this month. Following for sure

Hey Shadow: Is the mechanism for donations, now active?

It was a mine fuckwit, not a grenade.

Thank-you. It’s refreshing to hear someone so positive. 🙏

I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Nice. The project looks interesting. I’ll follow it for a bit.

Moderation should always be client side. Server side should not be able to interfere or even read public content

Yup. I don’t know if I agree re public content, but perhaps private messages should be encrypted, client side, before sending? That issue is one that bothers me about Mastodon.

No. He wouldn’t be happy with ActivityPub as well. He imagines a social network where no one can perform any moderation. He favours Nostr for exactly that reason. Bluesky has got moderation (just like the Fediverse) - which he dislikes.

So? Like Usenet was back in the day before it became a pirate haven. Then email lists became it. LOL, People tend to ignore the extreme nut jobs regardless. I never saw any child porn on Usenet, but then I didn’t go looking for it. No doubt it existed too.

Two happy mutts!

If anyone has any specific concerns about this that aren’t related to the users political views, please feel free to reach out.

Thank-you. I’d like to add, in no relation to this request, that at the end of the month, I’ll become a monthly donor to the server. The reason for my absence, since I joined 3 years ago, was simply me waiting to see what direction Reddit was taking philosophically in terms of their going public. I was hounded on that platform because of my political views (deleted my 13+ year account) and was hoping this instance would be different. So, thank-you for being reasonable.
