For YouTube it's PeerTube and for Twitch it's probably OwnCast

My electricity bill went up 50% due to the AC alone. It's getting THAT bad

So, if that were the case, why not remove federation with everything, and require users to log in to view the content in the first place? That way you would guarantee that everyone that views or interacts with the community is properly vetted, in line with the "coffee shop" analogy you're establishing here. (Something that would have been best achieved by using a non-federated forum software such as Tildes, but alas, it's a bit too late to do a platform change)

Well. Guess I'll have to go and spin my own self-hosted version of Kbin just to be able to follow everything, without being at the mercy of third-party admins cutting my subscriptions in a whim. Also, I sure hope that the communities either move into Beehaw or outside of it, fragmentation out of the users' control makes the entire point of federation moot.

Going from "we did it Reddit" to "we did Reddit", what are the chances

I'm really glad that self-hosters are finally starting to "eat their own dog food" so to speak and finally start to self-host their own community discussions. And what better place to do so than on the Fediverse!

One of the nice things about federation - they can actually follow each other like nothing happened

An absolute miracle of a story, and strap your seatbelts because it's a long one! Especially the fact that their mom died in an air crash, and because of that the duty was on the older sister, who was just 12, to take care of her siblings (one of them just a year old) in the middle of an extremely dense and dangerous jungle. For over a month, mind you. Them surviving with just some dehydration and mosquito bites is nothing short of heroic.

Correct, but it will be capped regardless - no access to NSFW content for example.

Considering that both Nvidia and AMD have been constantly pushing the prices of baseline GPUs well beyond the golden standard of the 1060, even long after the Big Crypto Spike of 2020? Yeah, barely anyone would bother spending a small fortune on a GPU

Does posting and replying from another server count as "not lurking"?

Remember when in September 2017, Reddit decided to no longer be open-source? Well it was precisely to prepare for this specific scenario. Embrace, Extend, Extinguish and we're finally on step 3.
