I think lemmy is important right now, but we still have stuff like piefed and mbin that works. A lemmy-less lemmyverse is possible, but kinda pointless.

Also: the anarcho/communism one annoys me, because I thought I was original when I thought of that joke.

A lot of servers require signatures on GET requests as well, for private posts and to block specific people/servers.

Yeah, that was the inspiration.

I also read every tagline from /api/v3/site because I’m too impatient to just reload the page.

The main bottleneck is I/O anyway.

The recurring characters to me are:

• You
• Blaze
• Sunshine
• Ladybutterfly
• TotallyNotJessica
• Stamets
• Cm0002
• Coelacanth
• PugJesus
• Squirrel
• BytesOnBikes
• The Picard Maneuver
• Track_Shovel

There’s always at least on of them on the frontpage.

I do not, ActivityPub uses HTTP signatures to make sure messages and requests from other servers are legit,

Essentially, it adds a “signature” header which contains a link to a users public key, a list of headers in the message and a signed hash of all the headers and the request.

There’s a better explaination here: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/security/

A delicated bot to scrape ActivityPub posts is possible, but generic bots shouldn’t work. If a delicated bot is made, people can block its keys or server anyway.

I doubt they’re crawling stuff over AP, you usually need a HTTP signature for that, and no bot is going to bother with those.

Most crawling would just be spamming the web interface.

I’m in no way an “all sides” guy, but hamas is also harmful to Palestine.

Israel depends on hamas to justify their genocide, that’s why they funded them.

His username is btcbrian, so he’s probably a cryptobro.

I feel like calling .world posters pro-palestine genocide is the hexbear equivalent of them calling hexbear pro russia.

An obsecure fediverse thing made a setting to replace the phrase “artificial intelligence” with ai, and its working pretty well.

Its not a fork at all; Its built from scratch.

disgustingfilm is a parody account for discussingfilm.
I probably should have mentioned this, but its funnier this way.

bebo was (is?) a thing

Posts that propagated to other communities will stay on servers.

Images will break though.

My original point was that leftism isn’t linear, and that marxism-leninism and anarchism are quite different.

I typically recommend those users other instances which don’t federate with hexbear.

They are pro-ai-the-technology, they’re not on board with the big Ai companies.
