  • Not true.

    The immutability of the thing is just Merkle trees. And integrity of the writings is any form of authorized blocks. From a certificate from an authority a la PKI to proof of work. And anything in between.

    The thing is that there are not too many applications for slow distributed inmutable databases.

    DNS is the only thing that I know that is globally distributed, with slow updates of domains being acceptable.









  • Political “debates” are useless, but I always like to watch different conceptions from different countries.

    When I see USA politics right-wingers have some speeches and actions that left-wingers have in my home country and vise-versa.

    Like, leftwingers in my country usually attack a former rightwing president because he supposedly fomented immigration, specially illegal immigration. (Although, here rigwingers also have more hate against the inmigrant, just like US) 1 (sorry for the language, didn’t find an english version of it)

    Or a former leftwing president that mobilized our army to Haiti to protect their democracy 2

    Same with labels: In US “liberal” is a left wing label, in my country is a righ wing one.

    Same apply in other countries, like I see Spanish news when “republicans” are the radical ones, usually left-wing, because they oppose monarchy, and the “republican” flag is a left-wing symbol for spaniards.

    That’s why political labels are pretty useless too. Republican means literal nazi or revolutionary against monarchy depending where you are lol.




  • Pros:

    • No single entity that have all control.
    • No entity profits from it, so you are not a product.
    • Related to above: No trackers, no ads, no spyware, etc.

    Cons:

    • It is run by volunteers: bad uptimes, slower progress, slower fixes, etc.
    • Some volunteer may give up and delete the instance. It happened to my first Lemmy account (nothing against you, stux)
    • No market-driven decisions means sometimes instances defederate each other for purely ideological reasons. Sometimes very childishly. (again, nothing against stux)
    • Lots of fedidrama.

    Welcome to Lemmy. Hope you enjoy it.

    Just an unrelated correction:

    why= por qué

    because= porque

    Anyways, I agree your comment. Why not both?

    In my home country there’s a lot of wasted money in college, and sports is not among that. I wish they had a decent team.
