Another nail in the coffin for the "modern" internet

 

The internet is imploding

 

 
 

I mean anyone who is/was paying attention saw this coming with how much they've been diving into the SAAS business model.

While on the topic of clowning on 'ol Billy Boy:

Or testing if you're adventurous and don't mind your software changing before the inevitable package freeze.

I miss 16:10 aspect ratios. Those were the shit. I don't know why 16:9 took over as the standard.

I think all cats are on the autism spectrum to a degree.

Dumb babies.

That's not how it works. Instances don't cache images from other instances. If you hover your mouse over an image you can clearly see the site it's hosted on is in fact not originating from the instance you're browsing on. It works like Pleroma, Akkoma, Rebased, and other Pleroma forks.

IANAL, but I believe you can't be held liable for hosting links to other images on a site, regardless if they're embedded through the website's UI. They're not stored there, afterall. The client is rendering them.

All that gets cached, I believe, is the text and users from remote instances. And by cached, I mean stored in the postgres DB.

Oh, I read that too fast. I didn't take it as a "Mom cancel my meetings Xorg broke again." Joke at first.

Quick refresh seems to help it find the instance you're searching for in my experience.

No, my laptop literally crashed. Like it froze when I was in the ISO still. Couldn't input anything, couldn't switch TTY, nothing. Caps lock was blinking too which according to Dell means some weird fault happened somewhere. Hope my motherboard isn't shitting itself.
