How safe is your current job? If you cant be sure that you will be able to maintain that income for at least the coming 5 years then i would be careful with big money commitments.

Links to communities should use this format !main@feddit.org so that clients will open them properly. https://feddit.org/c/main this format will not work properly. You can not do the same for links to posts or comments tho so you have to hard link those sadly.

To embed an externally hosted image like this you can use this format 
You can ofcourse just upload the image to your instances media storage, but some instances have that disabled or have file size limits.

To embed a hyperlink into text you just Ctrl+C the URL, select the text that should contain the hyperlink and then Ctrl+V which will add the link to that selected text.

If you want to force a new line while writing text, you have to put two spaces at the end of the line.
like this
Otherwise you either need to put a full empty line in between or it will just be continuous flowing text.

Nah this xkcd really doesnt apply here. If you can can see and have at least the intelligence of a 6 year old then you can see that something is different about email compared to whatsapp or signal. With even the most basic pattern recognition skills you will find that everyone you know uses different apps, sites and addresses. Compare this to normal messengers where literally everyone will have the exact same app, interface and way to contact people.

Literally everyone who uses email knows that not every email address ends in the same way and that people use different websites and tools to access their emails.

Its the only widely adopted digitally federated system that exists, where users are aware of the federation aspect. What could be a better technical comparison?

Whenever anything is “federated” the easiest comparison is email. Everyone can use different email servers and applications, but they can all still communicate with each other. “Email” is the shared protocol that structures how data is exchanged between servers and clients.

The fediverse instead uses a protocol named “activitypub”, but works similar. Just a bunch of servers that speak the same technical language which enables them to freely exchange information. But while email only supports single messages, activitypub supports more complex structures that developers for platforms like lemmy or mastodon can use to make actual applications with an interface that gives you an easy way to display and structure that data like as a forum or blogging platform.

Monthly Active Users :3

There will always be moderation. If you dont ban certain things, people will have to defederate your server or risk being raided by the police. That being said, there are some more lenient servers, but few servers are completely hands off. Your server is not what decides whether your post gets deleted or not however. That is always decided by the mod of the community you post/comment in.

If an instance has multiple hundred active users, i doubt its going anywhere anytime soon. You can also just contact the admin of any server and ask how they fund it and what their future plans are. The “first seen” column also quickly gives you an idea of how long standing the server is.

Neither. Never go for an instance thats at the top in terms of user count unless there is a specific reason to do so. This applies to all fediverse or decentralized services.

Go for any of the ones below the red line or sort this table by MAU and find one even further down. Excluding US based servers is also something to think about.

Nah this is funny af. Fuck religion.

If it “breaks” it might not actually sever the strands of the material, and behave more like wood splitting along its length. Also if it was oxidation then the whole cut surface on the right should be completely black.

Also there isnt much of a point in dropping bombs on an empty field, so they are mostly found in populated areas. That means most of the ones close to the surface got found right after the war by people seeing the impact zone. The deeper ones just havent been found. So this kinda thing where its close to the surface, but hasnt been found, can only happen when the bomb was dropped in an area that wasnt frequented by people for a few years after the war. When it was freshly dropped it was probably quite visible.

This is a really unusual case. Never heard of finding a shell that close to the surface in that sort of position. What does constantly happen in europe tho is digging up bombs during construction works which leads to an evacuation of the neighborhood and a bomb disposal team coming.

The surface to the right has been cut, but the surface to the front (which has the dots), looks like it has been broken apart from the rest of the plant by force not cut with a knife. So why are these black dots only in that small area and not everywhere on the front facing surface? Something about the area i marked is different from the rest.

I dont wanna bully people for their donations too much, but yes, wikipedia is one of the lowest donation priorities out there.

The perspective doesnt make it look like there is a cut there, but the image is just not the best.

They are the definition of move fast and break things. And they just keep breaking things while not even being that fast. But still there is nothing to replace it and the work they are doing is valuable.

If you want the new mobile client “element x” to work, you will need element-call on the server (a decentralized webrtc based call system). This currently only really works in combination with synapse, so i would go with synapse. Either the ansible playbook as mentioned by others, or look into the still quite new ESS community edition.
