Added degoogle and demeta to the deshittification sidebar.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks too! Was in a similar situation as B0rax.

If it still turns on, it still has an use!

Wouldn’t doubt intelligence services from who knows how many countries are keeping an eye here, or even companies such as Meta (even if in their case, without Threads). Maybe an ill-intended individual or a monitoring entity doesn’t even have their own instances.

About profiles being public on the fediverse, everything’s possible with enough will. And if someone’s willing to chase another someone down, I’d imagine there’s enough will to track down everything that is shared by this other one. And I can think of some rather feasible ways that tracking can be done anonymously.

Though a crosspost, it seemed like an ad or spam. But checking the OP, apparently it’s actually a fediverse community too, so here’s the community mention: !theBrotherhoodSpace@lemmy.zip

Several such movements have been going around since around September 2025, with some countries’ governments, e.g. Brazil’s current one, pushing for such for longer.

Old Reddit still works normally for that too, though likely due to lack of updates instead

In their path of killing their own brand, amazed they didn’t yet fuck over Old Reddit’s RSS feeds, or even ax those completely.

One could inform and be informed, boycott those that cause problems, support one’s local businesses and initiatives, and to always evaluate both to whom something benefits, and what may be the intention behind the intention of a given movement.

Y de acuerdo con Sagan sobre una comunidad de Uruguay, sería mejor crearlo si lo tienes lo que publicar.

Pero quizás ¿lo pueda compartir a periodicos hasta que otros publiquen allá, como Lemmy hiciera en su “boom” inicial?

Soviet Union started planting the seeds of a take-over project, but when it feel, as there’s no vacuum in power, mainly China took over, with strong indication of politicians and beureaucrats from other countries being co-opted by them. Then China started taking away the production capacity from other countries and where it couldn’t, it would either buy a given country’s means of production, put people they could control in key positions, or use other sabotage strategies.

Technology companies likely fell in either or both of the latter two strategies, as they would show to have deals and aligned strategies with the CCP government. And with people aligned inside, or with the company devalued but still with a perception of relevance, it’s easier to take over them.

One of the major aspects of communism is centralization. As companies inflate, they take more and more control of the market. And if they have ties with countries with such regimes, which seems to be the case nowadays even if they’re distancing themselves now, these regimes can leverage the companies’ grip on the market to sabotage it and even the culture, so that what remains are the communistic ideals.

And if such process involves making a profit, to such project it is just a means to an end, as then by the end, money will have lost all its value.

It’s actually communism where the person doesn’t own anything.

Might I suggest also adding a “[MOVED]” to the beginning of the name of the lemy.lol community? Saw some people do it when lemm.ee went down, and sounded like a good idea.

Thanks for explaining the path!

I’m around my 30’s and I also struggle to think of examples not at least as old as me. e.e’’

That’s what I meant about horizontal attacks. Iirc that was the term used in the explanation that convinced me to consider a VPS. 😅

…though I still want stuff locally, so studying this type of network security is still in my roadmap.

Thanks!

About studying about operating systems and docker, I think I know what you mean. I had come across some info on docker already, and it sounded like a system image, as you’d get on a VM or with dd, or a disc ISO or disk ROM dump.

Will make sure to look further into it!

I’ll be doing others’ suggestions of going from the basics, to be sure whether I’m missing or not any knowledge. This earlier parts shouldn’t require internet, but I’ll ask once I get to the DNS part. Thanks. 😊
