If I hadn't given the instance to someone else, I would have considered leaving a community note on Rimu's user page with a red exclamation mark saying "this user is a complete idiot".
Creator of Lemmy Federate here (not the main maintainer anymore, handed over to lemmy.world management). The reason I switched to DNS-based authentication is that not all software has messaging capabilities.
For example, WordPress doesn't have messaging. Guppe uses a different messaging infrastructure based on Mastodon. Custom hobby software doesn't have it either (blogs like chrastecky.dev). I'm not sure about messaging capabilities of NodeBB and Friendica but DNS-based authentication makes Lemmy Federate support all types of federated software that implements FEP-1b12: group federation.
For example, although Lemmy Federate currently doesn't have any code specifically for Piefed, it does have Piefed support and 10 instances are already registered.

Valid concern. Still, I don't enjoy waiting for the anime girl to scan my browser too :)
I'm not saying mining in the background. Only at startup just like Anubis. I remember those scam sites too.
To be honest, I don't like it either, but in the age of AI, site owners need to make money somehow.
It's like a community. They present categories as AP Groups. This way, categories can be viewed as a community on Lemmy. For example:
https://lemmy.world/c/desk@fusil.uk https://lemmy.world/c/programming@chrastecky.dev
@cm0002@lemy.lol (you may unfeature this now 😀)

Cool!
Forgejo's most promising feature was federation, and unfortunately, they don't seem to be working on that.
Hello, it will be up again, likely this weekend. Since I handed over my instance (https://lemy.lol/post/63832683), I had to remove it from the server.
@cm0002 may take over the instance. If that happens, I would stay I guess.
I always liked the way it is. It's like cute and little instance of the fedi :)
I am sorry about the frustration.
You're welcome. I will need to do the same so if you find one, let me know :)
Huh?
🙏
rising server costs, my waning interest in self-hosting🫡
It’s been 5 months, so even if there was a drama, I don’t remember it 😂
Sorry for the wait, fixed.
