I don’t think you’ll get a hard requirement for that. Anecdotally, I can say you’ll be fine.

Dispel some misconception and help you make the choice: I run an instance that gets updates from everywhere and (because of the way activitypub works) it’s a stream of < 0.5 mbit average. Yes, that could double for every doubling of users, but it’s a far cry from the overwhelming overload of data people think is being federated.

One could argue that there is actually less transparency from an admin than there is from a corporation. An admin has complete control over an instance and zero oversight if they want to be shitty without being caught. Ideally the “hive mind” would weed this out and defederation IS a tool to deal with it, but the control argument can go both ways. In all cases we start by trusting the controller is acting in our best interests and need ways of handling things when trust is broken. Defederation, as the sole tool, might be too heavy handed.

I think it’s more like the instances are countries, admins are governments, and defederation is embargo. Information and influence are the resources. Eventually, you’ll have instances that keep to themselves and others that throw their weight around regardless of any real world political alignment.

The ol’ “you know not of what you speak,” syndrome. Know-it-all’s with an axe to grind are the minority, but man, are they disruptive.

I mean someone from the “outside” might go to lemmy.world and see a page full of poop and beans and argue the same thing. Just saying.

There has to be a middle ground. Applying to be in communities sounds good but what’s the point of a public forum that isn’t public. At some point if you continually defederate others, don’t you become the defederated one?

Added a lot of features if you want to try again.

Can you click “sync” and install the OneDrive client? That “mounts” the folder locally and you might be able to treat it just like a normal file.

Do you mean recorded teams meetings or just a video file on a SharePoint site? Is it embedded, or just a file in document collection/OneDrive?

I want this to happen, and then all of the admins join together to block API requests from the Reddit instance and redirect to pay-per-use API gateway.

You should write something that detects indiscriminate subscribing and automatically defederates with them.

Calm your tits Mr. Key Reasons.

Sexy loads.

They're not supposed to, and don't call me friend, buddy.

EVERYTHING by default. Also working on "discover only" for searching without the subscribe-to-everything. That said: It's far less than 3GB per day for EVERYTHING I can see, plus: you don't HAVE to keep it forever. Were you doing something that got other than text?

Technically no. Any user could. I wouldn't recommend it though, as it will subscribe you to every community.

Too late, it is.

Is there a bot for polls?
