    Interesting. Why is chrome faster than chromium? I thought chrome was chromium with bells and whistles.

    Nono, just joking. I’ve recently been noticing that practically everything I see is Nestlé under a different brand 😂

    Exactly, the bottom 10% don’t have enough money, meaning that any money you give them will go towards consumption. The top bracket’s spending as % of income or wealth is tiny and is mostly independent of their income. Their money is spent on investments, not basic goods and services. They practically don’t affect inflation.

    I think money should be printed during periods of low inflation. E.g. Japan could have benefited from that. After this bout is over, governments can return to printing, carefully.

    Well, you can disagree without being angry. I in general think that anger is a liability, not an asset. It hinders debate and argumentation.

    Nono, inflation is the right word. Inflation isn't caused by the money supply, but by supply vs demand. If demand suddenly increases, there will be inflation. If a lot of money is printed and is thrown in a hole, money supply will increase, but there'll be no inflation.

    Seems that a chunk of this platform's userbase are people generally angry at the establishment who upvote everything that wants to bring it down and downvote everything that rejects the idea. Happy that there's many reasonable people here too :)

    I already know I'm gonna be downvoted for this, but the top 1%/0.1% spending isn't gonna change, whereas the bottom 10% will cause inflation... That's why there's no magic bullet.

    TIL Mastodon doesn't compress its API responses... And I was complaining about Lemmy's verbosity...

    I wouldn't say I have anything against capitalism in principle. I just like open and federated systems.

    In principle, yes. Lemmy, for now, only stores updates in memory, so if something goes wrong, they can easily go missing. How does Mastodon do it? I guess I'm asking about the implementation. I'm not familiar with Ruby...

    Sure, I mean consistent in the following sense: will updates be eventually propagated even if the receiving server is throwing errors and/or is unreachable for some time? Do servers sync up?

    Is Mastodon eventaully consistent?

    I've yet to make an account on Mastodon and I'm wondering, how good are its consistency guarantees? Do posts get lost? Will they eventually get to all federated instances? From my Lemmy experience, posts do get lost here, from time to time. Is it the same on Mastodon?

    I think the main problem is that guys don’t understand what makes an attractive guy attractive. At least I don’t.

    Thank you! Question about the in-app browser. Many other apps use it and I've always been wondering: does it save cookies and sessions or is it just a minimal thing that just opens the page temporarily with safari, without persitent storage?

    It'd be great to support identity based on a key hash, so that it's completely decoupled from any instances. Maybe some time in the future.

    I think one should remember the happy moments to know what's possible. If you've been there before, the place exists and you can get there again.

    Honestly, Lemmy as it is now already is way more fun and engaging than Reddit ever was for me. On Reddit, I'm mainly a lurker. Here, I want to participate.

    Your tone and your assumption that everyone else is an idiot is irritating.

    The key part of your first sentence is "via Proton". Support for client side gpg is easy and they're not doing it either out of some strategic play or purely out of stubbornness. Working on standarts is great! I've had a "Visionary" subscription to Proton for years, since before the VPN and all the extra stuff. I like the company, overall. But, as mentioned in my first comment, this is the singular most annoying part of their service to me.

    De-facto memory leak

    It looks like the [lack of persistent storage](https://github.com/LemmyNet/activitypub-federation-rust/issues/31) for the federated activity queue is leading to instances [running out of memory](https://lemmy.world/post/1035095) in a matter of hours. See [my comment](https://lemmynsfw.com/comment/298949) for more details. Furthermore, this leads to data loss, since there is no other consistency mechanism. I think it might be a high priority issue, taking into account the current momentum behind growth of Lemmy...
