It's sure to encourage people to share of themselves when they recieve two parts downvotes to every three parts upvotes. The lemmyverse is a hateful place.
I recently checked up on the status of the built in E2EE in NC when deciding what sort of encryption I wanted for data at rest on a self-hosted system. People are still complaining about data loss and horrible bugs. I've been burned before and stay well away from that half-baked implementation. I just use Cryptomator instead.
On the other hand NC supports AI implementation, there's machine learning that sets EVERY SINGLE MAIL to important in the mail app and the ActivitiyPub based Nextcloud Social have almost worked for many years so that's nice.
There was only ever one "main lemmy" instance, back in the days when Lemmy.ml was presented as the official flagship instance on the official lemmy project page by the official developers. And was the biggest instance that absolutely dominated the lemmyverse.
Love Good Book sounds like the Kama Sutra.
