Did you actually read the original post? That is not at all what they said.

For example implying immigrants are the reason why social security budgets are tight or you can’t get an appointment with your GP is rediculous. The exact opposite is the case. Immigrants are mostly healthy adults that (after a while at least) pay more into social security then they will likely ever get out of it and definitly don’t clog up GP’s offices (on the contrary, they form a big part of the staff, nurses etc.). Old Germans on the other hand…

And the rest is similar BS that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Do you actually know what you are talking about? Because apparently not 🤦

Ugh, where do you even get these talking points? They are all complete bullshit 🤦 Like I don’t even know where to start because they all completely mix up facts and imply completely wrong causations.

Is this what Elon’s propaganda outlet tells Americans about Germany these days?

Edit: apparently you are from Denmark? That makes it even worse. How detached from reality can a person be?

That’s very much part of the experience you seem to crave /s

The issues mentioned apply to other messengers as well.

Other commercial messengers that target the general public, yes. But specialized communication apps for governments exist that for example have security clearance baked in at protocol level.

Commercial scuba diving is difficult to get into but it doesn’t take many years, and for sure nowhere near as long as becoming a doctor takes.

But I get the feeling you are just trying to argue for the sake of arguing and this has long moved past the original point.

You could also use them with https://www.filestash.app/ for example, but you still need something to actually store the files.

And Fediverse instances are similar. But that only works when you know what a car actually is.

Yes, as I said 🤷

When building you own servers from consumer hardware this is a bit difficult, but getting a PSU that actually fits to the power use profile of the server seems to make a difference. Sadly it is hard to get small PSUs with sufficient SATA power connections.

Sadly this. I have a graveyard of nice server boards that I got cheap before realizing how power hungry they are.

For CPUs basically anything older than gen 6 intel is too power hungry (although be careful with Xeon and xeon derived cpus, that are sometimes older gens rebadged as gen 6).

You sound a bit like someone who demands to be explained what a car is when entering a car shop 😅

Probably not, as the compatibility for Mastodon api using apps is experimental and not included at all in Misskey itself.

But if you want to host a server for a specific community that would apprechiate the more playful features of it, it is definitly a good alternative.

Works here 🤷

XMPP chat account integration.

I am not into “social VR” so I can’t really comment on that (but it does seem like all junk), but there are plenty of good single player PCVR games these days. In fact I have quite a backlog of good VR games I can’t seem to find the time to finish.

IMHO with the hopefully soon release of the Steam Frame and other (shitty) vendors scaling back their involvement, a refocus on actual VR gaming is coming and that is a good thing.
