@NonPlayableClown@J@p@Zergling_man Oh no, someone that caused drama in the Pleroma dev team and later forked it and marketed it as the "always up-to-date version with extra features" fucked off with zero warnings and went radio silent.
I would also be fucking pissed if I ran a website with thousands of users and the guy I relied on vanished from fedi and only came back to complain about how "fedi bad". Behavior like that is perfectly justified.
At this point I think you are actively malicious by ommiting the context for the screenshots you post to make them look ridiculous at first glance.
he's always been clear that he plans a clear path for old instances to migrate to Ditto.
Never heard about that. The only compat thing that I heard about was that it was supposed to support AP and he achieved that I think. And even if he planned that, I think it wouldn't be a complete DB ingest migration which means it's completely useless for every existing Rebased users. It might happen eventually, but currently the schemas are vastly different and his schema currently has more perf issues than Pleroma.
And considering that he left the Rebased project completely unmaintained, only to come back last month with a meaningless change with "Hey look I made a Rebased update." in the description, I think it's safe to say that the possible migration ship has already sunk. The last time upstream was merged was a year ago and since then there were some security fixes put in place. Nothing substantial, but it shows he doesn't care. If you don't care enough to apply security fixes to your fork, you don't care about its users either.
If anything he was too nice. Gleason refused to say a negative word about Graf for literal years
Graf did that same. I don't remember him bitching about Gleason in public before he abandoned Rebased.
@phnt@p@NonPlayableClown@Zergling_man I get both sides of the Gleason Question but you aren't exactly representing the situation honestly either. He didn't just ditch Rebased with no game plan, he's always been clear that he plans a clear path for old instances to migrate to Ditto.
If anything he was too nice. Gleason refused to say a negative word about Graf for literally years while Graf can't go 2 weeks without getting drunk and antagonizing and bullying random people in the community into coddling him.
Migration was one of the earliest things he talked about doing so
This instance is younger by 3 months than the Ditto Gitlab project and only three objects coming from his actor on gleasonator.com talk about migrating from Rebased/Pleroma to Ditto and not in a meaningful way. (Pics related). Neither do any of the commits in the project. The other mention of migrating AP servers to Ditto comes from this issue created a year ago with zero work done with the last comment incidentally from around the same time he abandoned Rebased. His gleasonator.dev accounts never federated.
So as far as I know he talked about it in an issue, never delivered anything, not even a plan and posted about it twice promising it will eventually be there. He promised and after a year delivered nothing. Was he clear about there being eventually a migration path? Very much debatable.
if you didn't know you probably aren't in a good position to pick teams.
This is irrelevant and meaningless in this context not to mention deflective. I didn't pick any team. However your team was obvious from the start.
How it would work depends on your interpretation of how NOSTR infrastructure should be used.
I already in the other thread mentioned that Ditto is a hack to make Nostr seem more fedi like.
The only proper minimal migration from Pleroma/Rebased server to Ditto is if you ingest all local users with all local posts and store them once on a relay owned by you. That is the bare minimum for a migration path. Everything else like reactions, repeats are bonus points.
@phnt@J@p@NonPlayableClown@Zergling_man Ditto is literally just a Nostr client daemon that talks mastoAPI, there are no AP endpoints and you're expected to talk to fedi via bridges with their retarded sha256 usernames.
@phnt@p@NonPlayableClown@Zergling_man Migration was one of the earliest things he talked about doing so if you didn't know you probably aren't in a good position to pick teams.
How it would work depends on your interpretation of how NOSTR infrastructure should be used. It's not clear how you'd go about making anything permanent without just centralizing everything on one relay.
But if you're fine with just keeping posts and account details that have been bridged with Mostr to various relays, for example, in theory all you need is to use that key pair directly. You don't even have to move anything new.
The only problem is how to do it securely. NOSTR can't rotate private keys, so you have to trust a middle man to deliver the private key to the user.
That's because it was done by Gleason after the fact. He was already a persona non grata with the Canceldon people before he came to fedi, and then he forked Gab's UI, shat on Mastodon, and he was still talking about fedi being the way forward forever. After he burned the Pleroma team, he ran out of friends, except graf, and he fucked off to Nostr and announced that the plan was to drag Poast to Nostr. When graf wasn't willing to do that (or even deal with the CP from the bridges), he burned Poast, too.
> And considering that he left the Rebased project completely unmaintained
Not any lies. I can see a difference of opinion, but I haven't even seen an attempt at misrepresentation.
> bc you personally dislike him.
When I met him, he claimed to have been kicked out of veganism for being anti-trans, that he had to move in with his parents and hide and whatnot. I thought this was odd: people that come from a place and don't bring anyone with them, those people tend to have been exploiting the place. Sometimes that's not the case, but it's a warning sign; sometimes it happens for other reasons, but even if there's a concerted global smear campaign, it never leaves a person with zero friends.
Whatever the case was there, he claimed also to have been unfairly run out of Gab on a rail, he was persecuted all the way off the Pleroma team, and he keeps coming back to fedi to post bait so that he can mine screenshots to go claim on Nostr that he was unfairly persecuted and run out of fedi on a rail. The less bait people take, the better.
> Defamation is very common on Based_Fedi and always has been.
@phnt@p@NonPlayableClown@Zergling_man I don't have a team, I think NOSTR is gay. I also think a lot of you lie about Gleason bc you personally dislike him. Defamation is very common on Based_Fedi and always has been.
I appreciate the constant insistence that I am lying, but there aren't that many recent posts on his gleasonator account, and you can see the shitty threads and one right after the whole cunt thing where I have responded to the bait by telling people not to take the bait. You can't have been paying attention.
> So do you see why I think you just like to lie about him?
"YOU'RE LYING!" [screenshots] "OKAY BUT ALSO" [screenshots] "OKAY BUT ALSO" [screenshots] "OKAY BUT YOU ARE LYING"
Fuck all the way off with that.
> You guys are the ones who can't keep his name out of your mouths.
I had some flood of bullshit from mostr.pub because he doesn't know how to code, I complained about Nostr gateways, he came up in conversation. I don't bring him up. Fuck right off with that, too.
Ok, but he's never done this. It's usually the exact opposite, he does something, usually unimportant, and you and the Carnivore Gang come out of the woodwork and start sperging about how he's some glowie subversive and how he's totally being shady when no one else is looking.
So do you see why I think you just like to lie about him? You guys are the ones who can't keep his name out of your mouths. He's grifting in a totally different crowd lol
>Probably worth noting that he shat on Pleroma for this: He also made a thread claiming Pleroma FE was vulnerable to XSS when the purpose built parser misparsed URL encoded utf-8 characters. If I remember I was able to reproduce it, but I wasn't able to turn it into something usable that would break the FE or inject code.
