Not really. If the admins of that instance don't want to federated, that's their prerogative. They'll gain or lose users based on that decision. The beauty of the fediverse is that it's all on a voluntary basis. If beehaw decides to federate with a small cluster of other instances, then they'll have their own niche just like the current internet.
That's beehaw's problem. They defederated with lemmy.world recently
I would pay again for Pro. Sync has been my reddit app for years.
This was the Turkey Creek Preserve in Palm Bay, FL.
That's just the university buildings and grounds dept not adjusting the sprinklers properly/using poor sprinkler design. Bikes should ideally go inside, but they're beautifully simple to maintain machines and can tolerate the outdoors if maintained.
I would even accept outdoor bike parking as long as showers and a changing area was provided.
And heat. Particularly with workplaces with no end of trip facilities. It's 106 F with the heat index and humid where I live currently. My last workplace had lockers and showers, and so I rode even in the rain and heat, but my current job has no bike facilities whatsoever. I only ride in when the weather is good enough that I can ride in without worrying about changing more than my pants and shoes and freshening up.
I didn't try MCC or multiplayer, since I was just performance testing on the computer (will eventually be the wife's machine after we move next month), but even running Academy with the bots was running great. I was able to sign into my Microsoft account no problem though, so I want to try multiplayer next.
I wasn't even using Wine. I installed it and launched through Steam and the entire process was as seamless as if it were on Windows. Valve is doing great work.
As more and more people host their own federated instances it won't be as big of a problem as it was for web 2.0 legacy sites like reddit. The Fediverse really is the future.
Then my friend is truly dead.
But that's no different than the current internet. Like I said, it's beehaw's problem. If they want to strictly enforce native users on their instance and have their stricter account creation process to join their community, then that's no different than the current internet.
