Go visit https://fedia.io and then tell them again that they're on Lemmy.
Everyone in this thread is already using Linux and just using this thread to circlejerk about issues the average Windows user won't care about.
The English translation is "they're still working on reaching feature parity with Lemmy".
No, this is not correct at all! You keep limiting yourself to the terms "open source" and "closed source".
Any code you create, you own by copyright. Even if it is public on GitHub, you're still the lone copyright owner and no one is legally allowed to do with it what isn't allowed by a license.
Projects on GitHub without an open source license are only "functionally open source" to the same extent that pirated games are "functionally free".
Correct, you are allowed to click the "fork" button and nothing else. You're still not allowed to download, use, modify, compile or redistribute the code in any way that doesn't involve the "fork" button.
Even if Proton VPN collects logs (which hasn't been proven once in its 7 years of operation), it becomes a matter of who you'd rather trust with your browsing habits: Your ISP or Proton.
The industry takes advantage of open source projects that have permissive licenses. This is an important distinction.
If you didn't release your code with a permissive license (or even with a license at all), you have rights that protect you and your code. The only issue is that copyright infringement can often be hard to prove if you didn't plan ahead for it.
And how are they supposed to sell consumer information that's end-to-end-encrypted?
Proton has been offering free services for 10 years now. And they don't profit from your data, so your assertion is false.
Proton has offered free plans for all its products for the last 10 years.
If it wasn't sustainable, I think we'd have noticed by now.
This is not the case with Proton. Paid subscriptions effectively subsidize free users.
I’m seeing this misconception in a lot of places.
Just because something is on GitHub, doesn’t mean it’s open source. It doesn't automatically grant permission to share either.

You can use whatever license you want. You can even go ahead and write your own license from scratch.
You'd only have to worry about enforcing the license, especially when you include such unorthodox terms and conditions.
What are you concerned about? A new, more expensive plan appearing out of nowhere?
Occam's Razor applies here.
Lemmy has its own API. Does this prove their ignorance of the standard too?

dormi.zone turns 1 year old! 🎂
It has now been 1 year since dormi.zone first entered the Fediverse on 2023-06-07, and it warms my heart to see that people are finding value in a community dedicated to Warframe.
Thank you to everyone who's contributed, and a special thank you to @[email protected] for hosting the Weekly Warframe discussions!
You can expect to see a larger post in the coming weeks where I'll go into detail on my present & future plans with this instance.

Upcoming downtime for update to Lemmy 0.19.3
Hello everyone! When this post is about 24 hours old, dormi.zone will be offline for multiple hours to upgrade Lemmy to version 0.19.3.
This version introduces instance blocking for users and improves post ranking and two-factor-authentication.
Be advised that this update will disable 2FA for all users who currently have it enabled.

Regarding the recent spam wave in this community
Hello everyone.
As you most likely have noticed, this community (along with some communities on other Lemmy instances) has become the target of a spam wave that quickly rose to prominence across the Fediverse: https://techcrunch.com/2024/02/20/spam-attack-on-twitter-x-rival-mastodon-highlights-fediverse-vulnerabilities/
For a while I thought staying alert and catching spam posts manually would be sufficient to weather the storm, but I was wrong. Even when I managed to remove posts immediately, it appeared as if the federation of either removals or reports was delayed, as I kept receiving plenty of reports by members of foreign instances for posts I had already removed.
I'm aware this spam has negatively impacted many users who view [email protected], some of which have understandably seen themselves forced to block this community to keep the spam off their feed. I took too long to take proper action, and I'm sorry.
A group of great Mastodon instance admins have managed to aggregate a list of instances that currently house the spam bots. As of now, dormi.zone blocks all instances found in this list. If you're at home on one of those instances and are now cut off from this community because of the block, please understand that this is currently the best option Lemmy by itself offers to contain these sorts of attacks.
In the future, I will try to set up an AutoModerator that should handle these attacks more efficiently. Recent IRL circumstances have left me with limited time to look after dormi.zone, and I'm thankful for your patience in these times.
EDIT: I have been informed by admins from other Lemmy instances that because of the specific moderation action I took (banning the spammers from this instance), post removals weren't federating, keeping the posts visible on some foreign instances. This is why I might have looked like I took days to remove some posts.
Proposal for GitLab to support ActivityPub

This will allow us to build upon a robust and battle-tested protocol, and it will open GitLab to a wider community.

PSA: Update to Lemmy 0.19.x delayed, 2FA will be reset after update
Merry Tennobaum everyone!
A little more than a week ago, Lemmy 0.19 was released; you can read more here.
As of now, outgoing federation is broken with this version of Lemmy, even after an attempted fix in version 0.19.1. View the related GitHub issue here.
Because of this, dormi.zone will remain on its current Lemmy version (0.18.5) for now. I'll keep you posted on any further plans.
Important: Lemmy 0.19 introduces a new implementation of 2FA. Once dormi.zone upgrades to a newer Lemmy version, 2FA will be disabled on everyone's accounts. This is intended to give back access to any account you might have lost due to 2FA issues.
