Something similar https://fourthievesvinegar.org/

They have open hardware and processes for human health purposes. Never tested thier solutions though.

Yeah im seeing it lol.

Honestly it just looks a bit different. Same community and people (one of the benefits of the fediverse). I remember it was a fork of another project (I want to say Kbin but im not sure).

Ed when i need to get into a server and i have no clue whats running.

Nano when i know whats running and i cant install things.

Vim when i can install things.

At wprk we use vscode wnd jetbrains products but they are omly ok. I still like vim more.

Yep! Ive used things that work perfectly for years in COBOL. It mostly doesnt matter what a thing is made out of unless I have to look under the hood and fix something.

Rust is fine. Its not revolutionary though its just another language. I made some cool one offs with it. But its everything else thats an issue.

We had things break at work because of rust-coreutils. I dont particularly care that its made in rust. It just needs to be stable and compatible.

However, the project is not 100% compatible with GNU coreutils. Putting aside the licensing issues, if it cant do what it says on the tin, then it should be on experimental linux distros not our most popular distros.

But this is linux/FOSS so people will do what they want. It means I wont use Mint, but its also ok for Mint to decide this. GL! hope everything works out either way.

oh nice, maybe ill give it a shot.

Its for fun. :)

To expand on what others have said:

Meshtastic:

Has more users
Has really good info on traceroutes, historical details on signal strength, etc…

MeshCore:

Messages often get recieved because of a better* algorithm (much higher hop limit). Chat feature makes a node into a chatroom. Messages get saved and anyone logging in can see messages.

Both are good. I wish they did more work interop TBH. But both are in their early days. reticulum is also another protocol in the space. Much harder to set up but actually is more like everyone things of a mesh network (websites are hosted/viewed via multiple ways).

Ive worked and contributed to both mesh projects. They have VERY similar hardware so its really just differences between what you want to play around with. In an actual emergency though…walkie talkies are MUCH better (as well as ARPA).

!meshtastic@mander.xyz is where we hang out.

Fairly talkative but you only see half the convos most of the time.

Gl! It only gets better if you put in the work. We dont agree but hey thats life.

Have a good day.

Ive done my part!

Things that your community wants to see get upvoted.

Things your community does not want to see get downvoted.

If you get rid downvoting you get rid of the vehicle for removing things your communities dont want to see.

If you dont want to see what a bunch of randos are agreeing/disagreeing on, maybe try to find a site that does? Because this is the internet in a nutshell. I dont hate you by downvoting you, im saying to others, hey this person has nothing to say that is important here. And the website pushes that content away from that community via the score. I think lemmy still lets you see the downvoted comments but other fedi services just remove the comments/posts OR hide them automatically. I know some software even removes the post/comment before it even hits the servers. Fedi is powerful in that we can do what we want with the data we get.

I just dont understand your point of view sorry. Maybe if you implement the solution I can better understand.

Its pretty easy to fork Piefed and other such fedi services. Give it a go!

I made mastodon clone where the hashtags are organized like they were lemmy/piefed/threadiverse communities. It worked really well! GL!

You know, I could see a feature where if someone mass downvotes a certain percentage of your posts, then block them in some manner.

Like if someone made a script to downvote ALL your posts or something of that nature. But I personally havent seen something like that in the fedi before. But it was something reddit had a problem with. Bots downvoting so their own posts got to the top before anyone else.

I dont think blanket blocking downvoting people is a good thing though. As others have said,it will undermine the purpose of the voting, for visibility.

Interesting, thanks for the info!

Firefox on mobile. I make the website an app. It works.

Unfortunately the project is reliant on quite old tech and parts nowadays.
