the underlying OS has improved in a few areas
Which ones are those?
A Finn from a Finland.
I have the same username on, sopuli.xyz, anarchist.nexus, social.porotokka.net, piipitin.fi, piefed.social, lemmy.world, pixl.fi, divergent.1m2lab.engineer, piefed.ee, and bsky.app. Of those the ones on piipitin.fi and piefed.europe.pub are my main alts, and I use the ones on kbin.melroy.org and anarchist.nexus relatively often.

I think Finland would have said bye bye to him for that. USA could then have sent someone else to replace him.
Iceland cannot, because it doesn’t have an army of its own.


My home instance was sopuli.xyz, but the community in question was on lemmy.ml indeed. I haven’t written anything on .ml ever since.


Ohhh!
And I am also a Lemmy refugee! 🤪
I mentioned the concentration camps China uses for Uyghurs, and I mentioned them with a rather mild wording. *blam*! Comment deleted! By one of the main people maintaining Lemmy. Hooray. I really didn’t want to play on their sandbox after that.
Somebody happened to mention Piefed in some /c/ just a couple of days later and now I’m here :)
Feels much more like home to me! 🙂


A Fecesbook refugee :)
(Okay, there’s one group that is too valuable for me. And another one where people really need help with trying to save the world and I write answers beginning with "yeah, this will work, but there are caveats. I’ll write more on the Fediverse side of our group, here’s the link: ", and then I write a longer text here on Piefed and add the link in the end of my FB comment.)


Yeah, I am currently using a PieFed instance that is behind Cloudfare, because my regular instance has problems. But I have preferred instances not behind Cloudfare.
AWS, it’s not really legal for any public institutions in EU to use AWS. Many do anyway, though. So yeah, some stuff might break in the society. But not that many things I use personally. Hopefully they have backups of their code on their own servers as well, so that if AWS ever disappears, they can quickly run the same code on some sensible platform. Wonder where their databases are physically located, though :D


Funny, but for me very little would change. The only one of those I use even occasionally is YT, and the videos would start appearing elsewhere. Peertube, maybe?
EDIT: Oh, I’d lose my steam library. That would be a nuisance!
The last wagon of the train is by far the safest. In both of these accidents, people in the last cars of all of these three trains have made it out unscathed.
Just promise to be in the last wagon. You can go to the last wagon, or to one of the last ones, even if your ticket is for another one.
