Ukraine had Soviet nukes, and gave them up for security guarantees with Russia.
Ah yes, that worked out really well for Ukraine /s
Trusting Russia is a mistake

Nothing unusual, Israel hates human rights and loves war crime.
I like your approach

The first article shows some photos, both articles have excellent descriptions though
What is known as servers on Discord also exists on Matrix. They are called spaces and you don’t need to self-host a Matrix server to create a space. There’s also no significant learning curve, you just download Element (the most popular Matrix client), create an account and you ready to go. You can join spaces or groups from any Matrix server or message anyone on the network. Chats also make use of end-to-end encryption by default and it can even be activated for groups (wouldn’t make much sense for public groups though).
it must be doing something right in terms of being sustainable
They’re basically living off of investor money and selling user data. The former is not an indefinite solution though. And Discord Nitro is a fucking joke, the revenue generated from it will never cover the operational costs.
Matrix is a much better solution, it uses peer-to-peer technology (https://matrix.org/blog/2020/06/02/introducing-p2p-matrix/) to reduce the burden of operational costs on the team. It’s also federated, just like Lemmy, meaning anyone can host their own Matrix server and communicate with users on other servers. Running Matrix at home or on a VPS is even easier than self-hosting Lemmy. It’s also completely free and open-source and allows everyone to write their own clients. Discord on the other side is a piece of proprietary garbage/spyware and bans everyone who attempts to use a custom client. I will never understand why so many people like Discord.
Discord is an absolute piece of garbage, it’s not a good messaging app, definitely not a good place to host a community (seriously, I don’t understand why some communities saw Discord as an alternative after the Reddit API changes), and most importantly, it’s spyware. The company doesn’t have a business model and it was founded by a guy who is notorious for creating random shit that’s not economically sustainable at all. I don’t understand why anyone would use this shit. This video outlines everything that’s wrong with Discord: https://youtube.com/watch?v=uvNkdAggUGU

Am I seeing Reddit there?
The FastForward feature in LinkSheet should continue to work. If you need a solution for your browser, check out the Bypass All Shortlinks Userscript that you can install using Violentmonkey. There are also a couple of websites that can accomplish the same thing, bypass.city and bypass.vip. I got the information from https://fmhy.net/storage#skip-redirect
At least I’m not aware of any reason. Just wanted to put the alternative out there.
LinkSheet is an alternative to URLCheck
Thanks for the suggestion
FreeTube doesn’t use the YouTube API. Quote from their website:
FreeTube grabs data by scraping the information it needs (with either local methods or by optionally utilizing the Invidious API).
Neither Invidious, nor Piped, NewPipe or FreeTube use the YouTube API.
NewPipe has a component called NewPipeExtractor which scrapes the data from YouTube.
LibreTube uses Piped which uses the NewPipeExtractor.
Invidious scrapes the data from YouTube.
FreeTube can either scrape the data from YouTube or use Invidious.
I am anti-zionist, as Zionists are anti-human rights, steal land from innocent people and see themselves as something better.
