  • Depending on your jurisdiction it is probably your responsibility to enforce your copyright. I can always just record your music off a streaming platform. You can attach a license to your song in funkwhale (see this). If you want DRM for your music then funkwhale is probably also not for your. You still have to enforce your self that nobody monetizes your works if you don’t allow it. You can delete things from the fediverse if you know the source but I don’t think funkwhale allows DRM protected music.

    If you attach a license to your works that doesn’t allow monetization and they monetize the app you can sue them. I doubt they will though. And they probably wouldn’t be very successful because the app and the server are open source. You could just build the app without monetization. And someone probably would.

    The upload and sharing copyrighted music probably falls into the hands of the instance admin. As with PeerTube it is probably not a good idea to have open signups. But everyone has to make sure that doesn’t happen.

    The fediverse is an open and very liberal space. If you want full control over your works it is probably not for you. No software with federation probably is. If you want and need to control over your works (which is legitimate) you need something with a tighter grip, maybe host the things yourself on your server with DRM. That doesn’t mean it is bad for everyone.




  • The OLED has a nicer screen. Apart from that they are all pretty much the same performance wise. The expansion via SD card works very well. You can swap the internal ssd but it’s not recommended. I’d buy it directly from valve if you don’t want to buy used. Their support is quite good.

    The ActivityPub protocol works by sending out every action on one server to any subscribed server. The subscribed servers save this data and make it available to the local users. If it worked the way you described, every server on the fediverse would store all the data from the whole fediverse. That seems wasteful.


  • HA might be possible in a active passive configuration if you don’t have any dependencies on external hardware like a zigbee stick. Active active would need support by HA and I don’t think that is implemented.

    I think the most secure thing is to keep regular backups so you can roll back easily.











  • I agree that is sucks but my advice is purely practical. I try to be principled where I can but email is a lost cause in my opinion. I have hosted my own Mailserver. I encountered providers that only have allow lists and needed me to manually apply to allow my mail in. You have to build a reputation to not be marked as spam. Someone can just submit your domain to a block list and you have to find out how to get removed. It is a mess.

    The cold hard truth is that if you want your mail delivered reliably, don’t host yourself.
