I just want to say how thankful I am for the fediverse, and all the interesting new people I've met here.

I've stumbled in here when I was starting to feel alienated by the internet and social networks, I guess I'm just glad to have this space.

New Vector should cease development on Synapse and Riot. They're both really bad pieces of software with fundamental design decisions that make them irrecoverable.

Dendrite development should be resumed, and an entirely new client be created.

every hackernews ipv6 thread

:blobcatcomicread: ipv4 exhaustion is coming soon, <insert something here> is running out of ipv4's
:blobcat0_0: ipv6 will solve this
:blobcat3c: YAY
:blobcat0_0: ipv6 also gets rid of NAT allowing people to self-host effectively
:blobfoxthisisfine: actually NAT is good because you need a firewall
:blobfoxthisisfine: also I turn off ipv6 because it's insecure

and then you have a hundred-comment thread about why NAT isn't actually a good firewall and all the benefits of ipv6 over ipv4 EVERY SINGLE TIME
