Here’s a link to the blocky docs with a little more explanation. The above link looks like it goes to the a docker image posted on the user’s profile… I think? ^I need to get more familiar with docker^

(they said “like 6 months before he bought it”, not “like 6 months ago, before he bought it”)

the biggest thing to me, in terms of server load, is that reddit does not need to host videos/images. It’s a link aggregate.

I’m only a layman in this particular field, but I imagine it’s a lot lighter on resources to direct people to sites streaming video than to host and serve it all yourself.

oh, that’s really neat. thanks for the link!

yeah, agreed, I’d love something like that for the fediverse. Honestly, it feels like accessing various communities from different instances would actually feel more natural with it all being fed through the terminal for some reason.

Sorry, not an answer to your question, but what’s rtv?

what is 195/196? I see them pop up sometimes but that name conveyed nothing to me in terms of what they’re actually about

3 is the biggest thing about pivoting more towards Lemmy / traditional forums for me. It’s been really nice feeling like I’m not drowning in a sea of trite idiocy and unempathetic rage every time I open a comment section. It’s genuinely refreshing to feel like I’m actually engaging with normal people again.
