@Gargron yeah, gonna be tricky to move those. especially with how convenient to use the voice channels are.
@noodlejetski @Gargron this is relevant to add here, WRT "QOS rules":
-
@darwinwoodka @grishka @Gargron I'm with you in spirit here, but I seriously doubt this, considering the actual teens I know, and how "path of least resistance" they are. Alas, no #ElbowsUp for these heel-dragging #Canadian teens I know! I'll believe it when I see it.
-
@kerfuffle @Gargron Good question - and if the latter, how easy is it to export everything to a sovereign solution down the line?
@csolisr @Gargron @kerfuffle a highly relevant question
-
@grishka@friends.grishka.me @Gargron@mastodon.social It all started with the UK's Online Safety Act, where we now ID for porn sites, the UK Gov has since pushed for IDing on these platforms and it's being pushed out worldwide as it's not cost effective for just one country.
It's stupid and is one of the reasons I'm finding alternatives for friendsSam, so what happens if a porn site doesn't have any presence (e.g. a legal entity) in the UK, but doesn't ask for IDs either?
-
@Gargron matrix has been a bit of a challenge with voice chat in the past. But for text chat is great. There is also Stoat Chat which does have wonderful group chat system
In place. Lastly if your a happy tinkerer than you an look into the many discord clone projects out there and build the instance locally from the many GitHub repos@64bithero @Gargron does Stoat have voice chat? I can’t find anything about that, so I assume it doesn’t

@64bithero @Gargron oooh that’s tempting. I tried it a while back when it was still Revolt, but they didn’t have voice chat yet. I’ll have to try it again after work today

@grishka@friends.grishka.me @Gargron@mastodon.social If they refuse to ID people they can get 'fines of up to £18 million or 10% of qualifying worldwide revenue' whichever is bigger.
It's sadly not just porn sites but also self-help sites, subreddits, communities and all sorts now. -

@Gargron "Well find a way to bring users back..." as a closing statement, feels so gross...

@Gargron Check out Teamspeak with their new version. Otherwise, stick with the old version with Mumble

@grishka@friends.grishka.me You can fine foreign entities if they operate in your country. If they don't obey they can get blocked from the whole UK internet, we currently don't have access to Rule34, PornHub (at least the NSFW area) along with a few other NSFW services at all, others are IDed and illegal content has been made easier for children to find as these safer sites are now wiped out. So the OSA has done a lot more damage than fix.

@Gargron Not happy about that Patreon statement though
.From my PoV I am paying Patreons share. I roughly know what is deducted and select my tier accordingly.
And for me it is worth the money.
I am backing 25+ projects with Mastodon receiving one of the larger backings (since April 2017, my 10-year-anniversary is around the corner).
I have no chance to track my patronages if those are distributed over dozens of services.

@Gargron why not matrix?
@Gargron @lefteristrip23 this may be relevant (not like using discord was better, heh)
