I think you want to use AGPL. people can still make a closed source website out of your project due to the ASP loophole.

If you can program you can probably create an instance and then a moderation bot that bans people with more then X comments or Y posts a day. maybe that would increase the average quality of content. sounds like an interesting experiment.

I use to use old forums, i don't think the fediverse is worst then those old systems.

I think you could just ask a one time fee when registering or a monthly fee if you want to reduce moderators burnout or increase professionalization (in the best possible sense). maybe even just have the money used and publicly donated to some non profit (or stuff like funding lemmy development). maybe having a place where people know everyone donated to achieve some worthy goal will increase the trust between people.

Consider adding it to awesome lemmy which is linked to from the lemmy readme.

Legal then says later that the clause was not legally binding and can’t be enforced or such, making dev rollback to earlier Intel version

Yeah it was said by email, i actually did some research and turned out it is indeed not legally binding, i think it is good to know.

Sounds like a really useful project. do you have a link to the source code? (hopefully it is open source) , or a github/codeberg/whatever link? (so that people could easily submit issues). i can add it to awesome lemmy (or you can do it, its fairly easy).

software in the public interest

These donations can be made to SPI directly, or they can be marked for use by a particular member project. It is preferred that the donations be made to SPI, as they can then be used wherever the need is greatest. Donations to SPI that are not marked for a particular project will be distributed to the projects that are currently affiliated with SPI as needed, and/or used for SPI's own expenses.

The fact that it does not work out of the box is already a bug, why not open an issue on linux mint instead of endlessly trying to tweak things? (possibly a problem of unrealistic perfectionism tbh).

Linux is already mainstream (according to statcounter 1 in 25 people in the US use Linux). but hardware can be a problem and if you don't check if your hardware is supported (or probably even better buying hardware that officially supports linux) there is a risk there will be problems.

With that said use what works, you are getting this for free and nobody owes you anything.

It's pretty good for self improvement. I scored kinda high on neuroticism but after learning some psychology stuff like mindfulness/meditation/neuroplasticity/stoicism/ACT i managed to reduce it significantly after about 2.5 years. there was even a study recently that showed how using a app to change your personality and it's not easy and require serious training like learning a language or a musical instrument. I hope we will get eventually some open source version of that app.

and of course you need to be open to it, humans have a documented bias toward not believing what might hurt there self esteem.

Simply because good encryption tends to be slow, making the app unproductive imo.

gocryptfs is very fast for me. i have a file with about 5600 lines and i detect no difference when opening it under encryption and not under encryption. but in gocryptfs each file is encrypted separately . so you could get some information about the directory structure. but the name of the files and folders is encrypted ("archive" for example turns into something like "AaL6P86WWMnqQkMYnsRBXg").

Some types of content might take days to research or work on and might not have the audience to allow monetization by ads . mitra exists for those types of things and is open source unlike this project (it seems).

That just seems like the t shirts seliing is over . $1,740 does not seem close to the amount equivalent to what they get in a grant. but if you have evidence they don't need more donations i am willing to be corrected.
