Lemmy has less than 1 million users

The fan base would crush us

Because it is really really hard

What exactly is the grift of suggesting Foss over Google? You think he's getting kickbacks? And if you just mean the "grift" of getting paid for YouTube videos... I mean, if people are watching it and it's good information is that really a "grift", seems like just getting paid for giving good information. Better than the majority of YouTube.

I kinda use most of proton's stuff. Also I'm not on the us so no idea what the second part means

Either way the problem isn't with the technology, but with how many people in a road junction is using that software.

I think you are massively overestimating how many of his fans would go anywhere, and how long they tag along. I used to play a social deduction game town of Salem, can't say I know exactly how large the playerbase was... but I'd estimate it on the lower side, probably significantly under 50k. There were a few times Pewdiepie did a video on the game, and yeah, he was a pain in the ass, because he didn't try to learn the game, so his video was basically him trolling around in the game screaming random stuff, completely ruining things for people who wanted to play the game, and players could basically count on a few days afterwards of, having games ruined by his fans doing the same crap of course. However it certainly wasn't millions of them, within a few days the game mostly went back to normal... with if anything a slight boost to the number of players, because a handful stuck around and actually learned the game.

and again this is with much longer ago pewdiepie... way younger fanbase, way larger more active following. Today's pewdiepie, that's still following, and I guess bothering to pay attention to his videos on rigging up gadgets with raspberry pi's, and installing archlinux with hyprland, and apparently this one on getting off google. I'd imagine... the amount of people following him are going to be waay smaller than that, he hasn't been doing gaming videos in at least a year, seems to be more of basic tech comentary and general lifestyle location things.

So in short, if he did a lemmy push, first off I'd imagine actually the blip from it being very small. Unless steam charts suddenly show 100 million new archlinux users or something, I can guess his influence today is probably pretty small, and second the type of people he'd attract are probably also drastically different than the edgy teen base we remember him for, and lastly even at his peak of popularity and immaturity, the influx wasn't quite as big as you are thinking it is.

People are out here calling him a nazi and that's just crazy. It's an example of how the left is not immune to propaganda, misinformation, poor critical thinking skills.

Does YouTube vanced/revanced not work on Graphene?

I'm running lineage os on a Motorola moto g7 power (2019) Android 15 runs fine on a 6 year old phone.

"calls another YouTube channel bitch lasagna"
that was years ago right?
These days he seems more calm and almost no toxicity whatsoever other than rarely saying shit, fuck, or generic swear word.

That was Logan Paul around 2018.

@possiblylinux127 @Tattorack See also this table: https://discuss.techlore.tech/t/comparison-chart-of-grapheneos-divestos-and-calyxos/5618

A bit outdated since Divest is gone (), but a core difference is that Graphene prefers proprietary google stuff that is sandboxed and not given any privileges, while Calyx prefers free software versions that might have other issues (eg incomplete, or unsigned coming from third-party sources).

That’s not an issue with a custom domain name, but one of the other parts you run into, SPF and DKIM dns settings being correct and the reputation of whatever SMTP server’s ip address is. No one spam-bins based just on random domain names, or every business would freak out. You can also use your own domain on Google, Microsoft, or Apples ecosystems, not that you need to, there are plenty of providers that will host your email. I like runbox.

@possiblylinux127 @Tattorack I still stand by this other major difference, though: https://social.ridetrans.it/@Andres4NY/114671239145822442

Other reason is the renew fees for special tlds are so unpredictable. Com is surprisingly cheap to renew.

Porkbun + runbox here. Domain and email together cost less than $30 a year. You can use the domain for free with GitHub pages or cloudflare for a free website too.

I always thought it was a federated kind of platform. Not really p2p. Why do you need an instance if its p2p?

Oh shit is that what the issue was??? Thank you for explaining! I thought it was literally blacklisted like that. I told those worthless dumbfucks to whitelist my domain and that shit just kept happening—and they made me do all the work every time. It was exhausting and frustrating. I’ll look into runbox, thanks again.

Same, but this isn't that, so I won't bother.
