"WebTorrent is a wonderful library that allowed PeerTube to be created five years ago. But due to many limitations of the library we decided to implement and default to another P2P protocol used in coordination with HLS. This new HLS player works very well, and does not have all the limitations of the WebTorrent player. It also allowed us to implement live streaming in PeerTube."

https://mastodon.social/@elonjet is the new home. You can follow updates on Jack Sweeney's account https://mastodon.social/@JxckS

It will be interesting to see if republishing public available data does count as aiding in the doxing. I don't think so. His doesn't profit or calls for doxing on the account.

From there Terms of Service: Where you read 'Element' or 'we' or 'us' below, it refers to Element, a trading name of New Vector Ltd., its French subsidiary: New Vector SARL, its U.S. subsidiary: Element Software Inc, and their agents. https://element.io/terms-of-service

So UK, French and US.

Like Framasoft? Not that I know of. There are local versions in Europe. A lot smaller is https://disroot.org from the Netherlands.

There are floss projects that are growing: - Nextcloud (German) - Mastodon (German) - Element/Matrix (UK and French) - Pixelfed (Canada) - Small Tech (Ireland)

Dear Mozilla, don't route all our dns request to Cloudflare. We don't need more centralisation like Facebook, but decentralisation like Mastodon.

New comment by jelv in "How Discord Went Mainstream"

jelv — Thu, 14 Mar 2019 12:29:25 +0000

Discord business model seems te be to sell games. Not sure if it's going to be a good fit for non-gamers in the future.

https://riot.im/ powered by Matrix also seems a good alternative. It's getting more stable every day.
