first you are wrong. and second, mobile users who dont read, dont research and post subito are of little help. Excluding smartphone slaves would be a big plus. Unfortunately there is an app for those.
Requirements for running a full node:
• Your computer has at least 50 GB empty space on your SSD
• Your computer has at least 2 GB free RAM
• Your internet speed is at least 10 Mb/sec
Sounds reasonable. Anybody here to do this ?
Psychopaths . You didnt read.
The control is statistical in nature. It is predictable that most ppl wont move to “selfhost or simply choose a different server”. Privacy of metadata (sooner or later users can be identified) is lost anyway. To prevent users from “selfhost or simply choose a different server” marketing is used addressing, again, a vulnerable part of population plus technical hurdles (design choice). A small number of ppl (you?) will always escape control and manipulation.
If ppl choose the statistically centralized type of federated platform they should at least be aware of the trade-offs. Convenience vs. privacy/blacklisting. If there are only a handfull servers all controlled by the same companies its not even federated, its a marketing gag.
As you “have no time to look deeper into this” we will end the discussion here.
simplex TOS:
We reserve the right to remove such links from the preset servers and disrupt the conversations that send illegal content via our servers, whether they were reported by the users or discovered by our team.
Poberezkin is DOA. Dont’t try to simplify your privacy by using federated platforms. You will be pawned.
I sent you a PM.
works fine today. my inet cx is sometimes shaky, sometimes non-existent. i’ll come back later.
They claim it’s to thwart pedos and hate speech.
this looked like a chatroom [=meeting] but nobody there… or should i use it to send you a offline message ?

I am actually glad you bring this up. You almost give the answer yourself, because RS is not a federated platform.
Thinking inside the dichotomy of censor-or-not i agree with you. But it is possible to step outside this box. In RS you don’t have one entity maintaining a blocklist, but every user maintains a whitelist of 25-50 friends. You wouldn’d accept a pedo as a friend, do you? And I suppose you wouldn’t want people of bad character to maintain a blocklist FOR YOU either.
It might be a new concept to some influenced by the current zeitgeist promoting antisocial behaviour that friendship must be earned. Avoiding this efford, taking the easy way out and delegating responsibility to a distant authority they have no vote in, however, makes people into a disconnected mass very much powerless.
RS might look retro, but under the hood enables democratic and trusted relationships which are under constant attack by social engineering these days. Imagine being locked down during the next virus and confined to reddit 24/7 and other “social” media. How would you feel about that?
which client do you use?
I respect that. But I am also around long enough: Flooding attacks never lasted long in the past and did not cause permanent disruption. Iet’s not call it hacking, its plain old overloading. After 3-5 days its over usually and admins learnt a lot in that time. (Run a stressnet node!)
And BTW trocador.app is loading as fast as ever here. All the best, your customers just need patience.
This doesn’t add up:
nobody else noticed the inconsistencies?! They are running a business, they need to comply. And now playing stupid! Getting free ads with FUD. This doesn’t add up, indeed.
Edit: It does make a great deal of sense, however, if you think the big bros (not troc) are trying to sell “Cybersecurity”. Before they start selling, they create the need first. It works the same way every time: they sell you wars, peace, vaccines, security, privacy, co2 certs or even your own slavery. What to us looks like false flags — to them its all good business practice.
The short answer is: NOT YOUR NODE, NOT YOUR RULES
“federated” has been used lately to mindfuck ppl into believing they are free and decentralized. A federated government is not a democracy and a federated protocol doesn’t set u free. It’s the old server-client paradigm.
tor is built-in and required for easy peer discovery. RS is not unmaintained, who told you that? Its on OpenSuse.
