If piefed decides to create an api later, I would prefer they did their own thing and try to be lemmy compatible. Looking at misskey, I think not forcing api to be compatible with the more popular service has many upsides.

I think servo got a bit more recognition during the Kling/ladybird "drama"

I don't think they ever apologized.

There are valid criticism to be made about cosmic desktop, like
- their very liberal customization options that doesn't stop users from ruining the look of the desktop
- their insistent to theme libadwaita apps disregarding app developers wishes against supporting custom themes.

But those are just subjective criticism and it's still in alpha. All his "criticism" amounts to is whining about the software having glitches in alpha stage.

Piefed doesn't have an api, so no 3rd party client. You can use the PWA.

Have you checked out cryptpad? It has some collaborative features and you can self host. Although it's not as great as Libreoffice in my opinion.

With my limited knowledge in the subject, after reading their paper, what I understand is, although they say it like it was a great success, their experiment, in its current state, will fail at scale. But, it is a progress compared to previous methods. Also, photons do not play nice.

Actually, wine used to maintain a fork.

Are these relays similar to fediverse instances?

I was just thinking if a self hostable tracking solution was possible. Right now, I use MALSync on Firefox. Used to use Tachiyomi, but stopped after they discontinued and tracking on Browder with an extension just feels faster. BTW, just in case, there's an app called Miru (and a fork Migu) that has built-in auto tracking with anilist.

Apart from space junk, satellites have massive carbon footprint.

I wish someone made Bookwyrm fork/clone but only for anime/manga. I don't really have expertise for something like this, but maybe I can try to create something while learning about it as I go on?
