Public means public.

Nice. Looks like it's time for a GDPR complaint against Discord for not protecting my data.

Things like this are why I hope that Spacebar, a FOSS self hosted Discord alternative looking to reach feature parity with Discord, takes off in similar fashion to Mastodon and Lemmy.

Is there any word on whether Revolt is aiming to add voice and video chat as well as screen sharing?

[–] Zulasas@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

Sadly the video chat feature is not being worked on and it is also not planed for the forseable future.

[–] joelfromaus@aussie.zone 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

That’s a shame. My limited understanding is that it’s a difficult feature to implement which is a bummer. It’s the biggest hold up from having a candidate for Discord alternative for my group of friends.

[–] Zulasas@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, same for my friendgroup. We're starting to use TS6. It supports screensharing now, but sadly it's only P2P. But the selfhost server software is in the works.

[–] joelfromaus@aussie.zone 2 points 22 hours ago

Interesting! It’s the first I’m hearing that TS is bringing in screen sharing. Thanks for the info!

where are they published at and why?

Data Availability The dataset presented in this study has been made publicly available and can be accessed via DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.146585059. The data is provided in a compressed format, which can be decompressed for analysis. Detailed instructions for accessing and utilizing the dataset are provided in this article and the platform

Ok, and in regular english?

[–] naevaTheRat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The only error I can see is "the data is" should be "the data are". Stylistically I would also change utilizing to using, which conveys exactly the same meaning and is more accessible.

Otherwise I believe this is regular English. It's ok to have difficulty comprehending language, but it's more productive to ask questions about the parts you don't understand.

Can I help with any specific questions?

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The data is correct English in this context. I was talking more about DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.146585059.

But others have said what it is.

[–] naevaTheRat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 day ago

Anything that people write is correct really, like language is created by anyone making sounds or patterns to share meaning.

Data is a plural though, seppo dominance using it as singular is changing it outside that miserable empire but it's one of my hangups haha.

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Well the DOI is a digital identifier for papers and other data references for sciency stuff. But that DOI just points to the actual paper https://www.arxiv.org/pdf/2502.00627

For anyone who cares about great journalism, I love 404media. I'm in the middle of their latest podcast. They rock.
