If you already have another coin, Trocador Swap is the easiest option (and you can get the best rates).

71·3 days agoFediverse is very good at censorship resistance, much better than alternatives.
If internet is restricted in your country, use a VPN. If you’re an admin, move your server to a different country.If internet is not restricted, then there is nothing to worry about.
>Originally there was supposed to be 1 network, run by the engine council.
Yes, but then the devs decided to not take risk. That makes sense, and I don’t see why there shouldn’t be another network.
Fragmentation might negatively impact user experience, but it is not a huge problem, and it can be mitigated by implementing federation. I even suggested a possible architecture when federation was discussed in the matrix room.
One of Mitra users made a video about subs long time ago, I can’t find it now. You’re right, I should make a video too (and also a website etc etc).
But I need to finish nomadic identity first, as it is the main objective of the project.
That’s fine, my posts were not about any particular services. I am concerned with false statements in widely shared articles.
0·2 months ago@julian What did you do to get 3M activities? I’d like to try that too :)
2·2 months agoThere are several fedi instances in I2P network, for example http://accela.i2p/
They are not running Lemmy, though.If you want to run an instance yourself, check out Mitra, it supports i2p / tor federation and is easy to configure.

Boards are actors, and every message on the board is attributed to the board actor.
I think it would be easier to make it interoperate with microblogs than with forum-like software.
This is what ActivityPub client-to-server API was designed for.
Most servers don’t implement it, but some do:

Clients are even harder to find, and none of them are good, AFAIK
FChannel is a federated anonymous imageboard powered by ActivityPub:
@g2devi @XMRbutterfly @monero PoW doesn’t guarantee that wealth is deserved, because computing power can be bought too. It’s a bit harder to buy than tokens, but that doesn’t change the big picture.
Monero should stick to PoW, though, because it works. It didn’t work for Firo, apparently, so they had to change it, but I am not aware of any 51% attacks on Monero.
0·4 months ago@Paddy66 The work on data portability is documented in this Fediverse Enhancement Proposal (FEP):
https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/ef61/fep-ef61.md
You can find the list of implementations there (built by me and @mikedev).
For logging with a single ID into multiple apps, standard ActivityPub Client-to-Server API can be used, but I don’t know any production-ready application that utilizes Client-to-Server API in such way.
The alternative is this FEP:
https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/ae97/fep-ae97.md
It’s a re-design of Client-to-Server API based on FEP-ef61.
Looks reasonable overall, but I don’t understand some of your assessments.
>Easy (Leverage email hosting services)
What are those email hosting services? If hosting and maintenance are delegated to 3rd parties, that doesn’t count towards decentralization.
>Top Provider User Share: Reddit ≈ 48.4%
Why this is not 100%?
>Very Easy: One-command Docker,
I think the easiest option is distro’s default package manager – docker is additional layer of complexity. Also some services are nearly impossible to self-host without docker, and points should be subtracted if that is the case.
Nice project!
I am very curious about the “emeddable” part. Is it already possible, or only planned?
@rbrunner7 Nice explainer, thank you
@rafael_xmr @monero This app connects to 30 clearnet domains and all images are stored on nostr.build.
Fediverse is tens of thousands of instances. You may need a VPN to access your home instance (e.g. if it is blocked in your country), the rest of the network can be accessed from there.
I never heard about instances doing KYC (which is usually done by payments processors). If your home instance requires KYC, you can always move to another instance that doesn’t require it, because there are so many of them all across the world.
VPNs are not much different from the Fediverse, by the way. It’s just servers, they can be blocked by ISPs, and they can geoblock users. This is also true for Nostr relays, IPFS gateways, Tor relays, etc.
