This. Your data is stored in .md text files so even if Obidian somehow stopped being the best your data is so easy to move around.

Also add to your list mega.nz works for syncing Obsidian across many systems.

TIL, thanks for the insight. This is as it should be and Google can deal with it no problem.

I think most search engines are not optimized for this. I’m sure it’s changing but might take some time.

Google historically penalizes duplicate content and selects one source as canonical, usually whichever domain is the most authoritative. When it comes to lemmy, whichever instance hosts the community should probably be the canonical source.

Fascinating… I knew some of this and it is indeed troubling.

It seems that Brave’s mission is actually about generating revenue by any method possible (including manipulation of end users) more than anything to do with privacy.

If you’re cool with all that then Brave is for you I guess.

I used mailspring for about 6 months because I love the idea and it looks beautiful. But when you check the forums you see people are complaining about major bugs that seemed to remain unfixed for eternity, developer never comments.

Is this pronounced:

Photo-PEE

Or

Harvard has something like 52 billion dollars in endowment. It could afford to pay for all students tuition from just the return on the endowment.

Because spinning disks are a bit cheaper than SSD?

That is both a pro and con of the fediverse. I think instances (and even other users or communities perhaps) could store a reputation profile for each account and could have their own rules about where that user can post, how often they can post and their reach or visibility given their reputation.

New and low reputation accounts would have a very limited visibility, which would seriously impede a troll’s ability to open new accounts that have any value.

I guess it does seem like a complicated algorithm to figure out and I can see why this hasn’t been implemented yet.

I haven’t checked in a while but isn’t there some effort being put in to movable accounts?

Seems like a lot of the issues people have with multiple instances would be solved if your “account” was a public/private key pair that established ownership of votes, comments, and communities. Then it’s not really tied to an instance. Or maybe I just imagined this concept.

Hmmm, erm71… Interesting attempt to hide

It is / was pretty cool technology. And it’s a shame that it didn’t take off more in the gaming world because it worked really well.

Isn’t it true that AI generated content cannot be copyrighted? I had assumed that ruling would cause big brand owners to avoid it… unless they are documenting every artist’s work along the way, admitting to using it sometimes could blow holes in their brand.

Haven’t checked in a while but is there any hope for cloud storage of the image library yet? I’m kind of holding out for S3 support because I don’t want to manage multiple terabytes locally.

Oh they do, frequently

Obsidian has a plug in for this… here is an announcement from the plugin author: https://www.reddit.com/r/ObsidianMD/comments/1bsa6dy/alpha_release_of_my_handwriting_plugin_ink/ (sorry for a reddit link)

Switched from Onenote to obsidian. There was a small learning curve and I had to install some plugins, but I love it. It looks amazing and runs so much faster than OneNote ever did.

It seems like the most significant new feature is called anti-gravity which is kind of an allow list?

We’ve had white lists for a long time so I’m not exactly sure how this will impact the system. That being said I read through the release notes and there are a lot of changes and improvements throughout the system, so congrats to them team on the 6 release.

I’ve had pihole running on my home network for years and I love it.

Smart move by the new owner, anything else would have looked out of touch

I think sites that feel they have valuable content can deploy this and hope to trap and perhaps detect those bots based on how they interact with the tarpit
