Minorities are outnumbered by definition. Putting minority rights up to majority vote leads to minorities getting fucked over...

HDR in a nutshell. But we have to get through it eventually right?

If this actually stands a chance of taking off, I'll honestly take what I can get to normalise HDR images

HDR capable PNGs that don't look shite on SDR displays? Sign me up!

I don't use bluesky or nostr for the very reasons I outlined in my comment, and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. Especially nostr, which is a shit hole.

My point is though, they both do non centralised ID, giving similar benefits to what the OP is suggesting, without the centralisation they're suggesting

[–] ada@piefed.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm not the OP.

And no, a central account doesn't require a central service, it just requires amendments to the protocols to allow for a decentralised identity. Nostr, bluesky, etc all work that way. Nostr is full of nazis and bitcoin bros, and bluesky is effectively centralised in other ways, but both of them do have a genuinely decentralised single identity system.

There are a few ways of doing it. A single account on the first platform, and then signing up to remote platforms with that account. A system of trust that allows a user to verify that other remote accounts are genuinely also them. Combine it with platforms that recognise content posted from other accounts/platforms that belong to the same person, and let them edit the "remote" content locally and federate it out again etc.

So you don't end up with a centralised identity, but rather, the ability to manage your identity from whichever instance you happen to be signed in to as if it were created locally on that instance.

A passport in the way described here doesn't need to be centralised. Your profile could link to your other profiles through metadata, rather than a centralised system.

Strange, she can't fall from a branch either. Whenever she does, she always seems to catch herself with spider web...

I have zero interest in going to a place where people who want to take away other peoples rights are given a welcome mat.

The people that will go there are people who want to (civilly) hate on other folk, and free speech absolutists.

What you won't get, is a genuine cross sampling of perspectives and viewpoints, because it will end up being dominated by hateful voices (civil voices, but hateful). And that's what the other person meant when they said that no moderation is a form of censorship/bias in and of itself. Which is to say, you won't saving anyone any time soon, because the people who do want to save folks will be the least likely to use the spaces

Love digiKam! It and darktable make up my daily drivers for my photography!

Centralised identity is something that Nostr does right. But it's got a nazi bar problem

That is a lot of bathrooms, and all of them require going in to someones bedroom for access!
