Edit: I thought Revolt wasn’t open source, not sure what I had it mixed up with.

Well, that’s Plex gone from my server, then. I had switched to Jellyfin, anyway, but it was mostly “still there”.

No more.

Running the stuff on someone else’s computer still requires a dedicated team for “something serious”, unless you stuff everything in specific “serverless” platforms, in which case you’re still paying for admins, just not yours.

Exactly! As far as I’m concerned, robots.txt should be enough: I tell your bot to stay the hell away, or not, and your bot obeys. What it scrapes for doesn’t matter, IMO.

We don’t need more standards and rules for assholes to ignore, we need assholes to adhere to the rules.

And then there’s Discourse as well, to make it even more confusing. 🤣

I’ve heard of that, yeah, but I’m still not convinced a web page and chat mix well. They’re different in pace. That might just be me, though. 😁

I don’t know about decentralized, nor am I convinced that it should be, you’re responding to something on one page, I don’t think “decentralized” adds value here.

If you really insist on that, there’s several people who tack a fediverse thread onto a post. Mastodon, is seen often, I personally added a GoToSocial thread fetcher to my blog, I assume Lemmy could work as well.

As for non-decentralized but open, there’s Comments as someone already mentioned, and I’m personally using Isso, which presents itself as a drop-in replacement for Disqus.

Matrix is a chat protocol, not a comment system. You might shoehorn it into that role, but it’s never going to fit well, IMO.

Het is niet “het spelletje vuil spelen” als je de waarheid verkondigt, toch? 😉

Ik ben het er wel mee eens, deels, er mag best wat vaker uitgelegd worden “dit is onzin of schadelijk, en wel hierom”. Idealiter zou de pers dat doen, maar die is schijnbaar een beetje met vakantie, of zo.

Maar aan de andere kant wil je niet op alle onzin ingaan, want het is makkelijker om veel onzin te spuien dan om het goed te duiden, dat ga je niet winnen en leidt af van je eigen boodschap. Die moet ook nog steeds duidelijk gebracht worden.
