   Yes, as others mentioned, there will be hosting providers doing this for companies. The big upside is that you truly own the content and define your rules. I assume the costs for running a larger Mastodon instance are trivial compared to ho

   I see your point. At the same time, - imho - it is exciting to see how we might witness the beginning of an eruption in the established social media landscape.

   Exactly. Same way how people can subscribe to a company's Twitter account. Except that the company owns the content, server, and can define their own rules.

   I politely disagree: you just pick an "entry node", similar to picking an ISP or an email provider. You can interact with everyone in the Fediverse just fine. Having a newsfeed for your chosen "entry node" is an addition

   My understanding is that OP is running their own Fediverse server under fedi.aeracode.org. The challenge was that the server was not running at the root of the web server hence the need for the redirect code and the resulting blog post. But

    The main use case for my current iPad is to connect the audio-jack to my guitar amp and use GarageBand - which currently works great because I can charge the iPad at the same time. I guess in the future one can only use the audio out OR cha

    Which is noteworthy since the game development was done allegedly over the span of a few weeks [1] ( and hence it was a flop since it was too rushed ). But I'm wondering how you can - in 1982 - spend 22M on game development over a few

    Does it run on Apple M1s? The GPU requirements for the macOS version on Steam do not explicitly mention support for M1 chipsets.

    I thoroughly enjoyed my time as a PhD student. Imho it might be the only time in your career when you are truly, 100% your own boss. You own your PhD thesis. While your professor/advisors give input and feedback you ultimately decide w

    "...I cancelled my subscription to my formerly favourite online news portal (the German “Spiegel-Online”)..." Very good. Spiegel Online - unfortunately - became terribly bad over the last years, with click-bait headlines, sensatio

    Volvo released a study [1] which states that an electric Volvo C40 needs to be driven for 68,300 miles before it reaches a CO2 break-even compared to an ICE XC40. This assumes no replacement of any battery cells before reaching the ~68k mil
