At some point I saw images posted on what was supposedly Epsteins server setup, and given the disgusting shit they were up to it’s not even a little surprising he would keep it on hardware he fully controls. So of course there will be some technical documentation in there.
At the same time I’m kind of shocked how much of these emails happens on seemingly regular @gmail.com or @yahoo.com addresses.
I feel it’s very important to point out that specifically email is one of the most common things to outsource. Hosting your own email is simply one of the harder things to run on your own, having to deal with anti-spam measures, IP reputation tracking and the risk of other providers blocking you if one of your users are compromised and used to send spam.
My point being that yes, you are somewhat likely to use other Cloud products but it’s not a good indicator for how dependent the core business is on cloud providers.
Tracking specifically email is probably the best thing if your goal is to create an infographic where the dependence numbers are as high as possible though.
As someone who has been exploring the Fediverse for about 2 weeks, it's been an overall good experience. I've been trying to use it instead of Reddit as much as possible, but it's also apparent that there's a lot less content.
I hope that the verse will continue to grow and that it will solve the content problem.
Otherwise the clients feel like a breath of fresh air and less enshittified than Reddit..
edit: Also the first comment talking about experiences that are just too jarring. I haven’t encountered anything like that but maybe I am just a sweet summer child.
I like that the article excerpt clearly says that it’s simply about files not being removed when the trash bin is emptied, and it’s a problem specific to the Canonical snap system.. Yet every single other comment in here rants about Microsoft spyware. Not many people read beyond the headline, lol.
