Ah, the discord approach


Great, wish you the best, but if anything gets illegal is federated to mine that’s where I have to defederate. One admin to another wish you luck though.


Is it even doxxing to call out a username? It’s his @, we can all see it


Simple, I think it’s a great idea and so I care about it.


Yes you are very passionate if you’ve left so many comments about this, which is why I go back to my base question - why not just ignore it then if you find no use out of it?


Yes? I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make now. CVs, skills, etc sound specific to this so they wouldn’t be federated. Social features like posts, replies, comments would be, as they match ActivityPub, they’re not extending the protocol or anything for it.
So I really don’t understand why you’re so upset at the app. If you don’t want the professional stuff then it’s as simple as not signing up for an account. If you don’t want any social things from them then it’s the same as any activitypub: defederate or block.
You don’t like it, I think that’s obvious, but I don’t understand the multi-comment thread where your argument seems to be “I don’t like it so it shouldn’t exist”. You don’t have to understand why other people find it useful for it to be useful to those other people.


Don’t subscribe to users from there then, and even then doesn’t sound like this would be federated?
On a separate, professional site.
That’s quite literally what this app appears to be trying to do.


Where would I put my CV and professional details, my skills and abilities? I don’t know man, I see some real value here, what’s the harm of it?


Except, I don’t want those people in my regular circles on my regular accounts, I keep work and personal separate. I’d prefer to have a separate account, just like this that’s linked to my professional life. This fills that need for me


Interesting. I fully expect it to be a bunch of Linux nerds. However, us linux nerds share job postings with others.


I have only received jobs for the last 10 years via social features. I hate it, I don’t enjoy it, but networking and people skills are the way to a good network. I started blogging and recruiters started pinging me regularly. It has a place
Has it happened? I know they’re testing on the cascades but haven’t seen anything for a full start date


Just holding up images of memes outside


Yeah Lemmy is the last place before I just go hang out in parks and be outside


Oh if they do that’s great, the main dev of piefed went on a hissy fit because other instances used AI tooling, for them to be doing the same is just perfect. Gotta love hypocrites

Yes there are private communities local only to their server


Plus a key point folks forget is that if people are worried about scraping, your instance is literally sending out all of your info to whoever wants to listen. They don’t even need to scrape, just federate as normal. Never share out info you don’t want three letter agencies listening to


What?? I’m genuinely confused, I got an email that said they were ending it, I’ll try to dig it up


Cloudflare actually stopped their service. If you come up with another let us know
Didn’t realize you made the rules
