@omnipotens yeah, you're probably right...

@unfa do you have backups tho? :P

@josemanuel @strypey
I think both "nationalisms" are harmful. But I haven't really seen the windows/mac nationalism happen, so I don't know how bad it is or how I'd deal with it.

Most of the time when someone told me to use windows was like "you wouldn't have these problems if you just used windows, why are you going through so much trouble?"

And that is ok, because they have a reasonable argument and don't insist that I'm a bad person because I use Linux.

@omnipotens
eh, but sooner or later you'll need to learn the new tool anyway, unless someone is willing to maintain the old tool forever.

Unfortunately I can't relate cause, when I started using linux, iproute2 was already a thing, so I never really knew how to use ifconfig & co.

But IMO iproute2 has a very logical syntax, and once you learn a few of its commands, the rest will become intuitive.

@omnipotens
ip route add default via 1.2.3.4

@omnipotens A friend of mine just checked on CentOS 7, and it is a separate package. net-tools package contains the old tools (ifconfig, route) and iproute package contains the new ones (ip).
Should be the same on redhat, and supposedly net-tools should be installed by default.

@omnipotens what's wrong with iproute2 tho?

@wowaname @hyphen @tleydxdy
yeah, just leave your fileserver connected to your VPN 24/7 and then when you connect to the VPN from anything else, you'll have access to the fileserver.

...at least if it's a self-hosted VPN configured to allow client-to-client connections.

@thog nvm wrong @ kurisu

@AbbieNormal @sean
By default, the code contains only one filter, which implements a few mechanisms, and for each it takes a list of instances as a config option.

So basically, instead of having one list of blocked instances, you have one list per type of moderative action, there are a few types of moderative actions built in, and you can code more yourself.

@AbbieNormal @sean
No.

@AbbieNormal @sean
this lets you, for example, add #nsfw tags to all posts from a particular instance, instead of outright instance-blocking it.

As I said in my #OpenLetter to #ActionStation:

"Arguably, it is as a consequence of the erosion of civil liberties in democratic countries since 9/11 that we have seen the rise of toxic enthno-nationalism and its associated violence, not as a result of too much of the wrong kinds of speech."

Nor as a lack of always-on mass surveillance of the whole population. Anyone who wants that is welcome to move to China, they always need more English teachers ...

@AbbieNormal @sean
Message Rewriting Framework.
Essentially an API in Pleroma letting you write filters that arbitrarily mangle incoming (and outgoing?) posts.

@quad no use...

@neutron I think Mozilla's stance is "we need to make money, that means we can't lose users but also can't lose sponsors, so we need to play on two fronts"

@strypey unless the nationalists are 51% and can bully everyone else into submission - then it's not counter-productive for them.

And I think that's what we call "dictatorship of majority"?

Yeah we don't want that.

But now I really wonder whether nationalism can also be an effective strategy in case of ignored minorities.
