It seems like valve is not really into the fediverse.

What does it matter for this conversation?

Those people already got payed before being layed off.

At that point all the people getting money are the people who bullied their way to holding the rights for the IP.

I think the question arose from a scenario I was imaging in which a instance goes down and all or some of the content is lost.

Decentralization, I thought would be if all the content gets posted to one instance and then every other instance is just a mirror of that one. In other words, every Lemmy instance has all the content all the time.

But you can’t really? If I remember correctly you still lose all the posts, followers and pretty much everything that you would expect to keep.

Technically you keep your account but let’s be honest, you don’t in the sense people want.

Maybe my knowledge is dated but that is what I recall about moving accounts.

How is mastodon not just a bunch of centralized platforms?

Sure the servers communicate with each other but the content is still just on one of them. Goes the server, so goes the content.

Or am I mistaking?

If it is like I say I feel it is more trading Hitler in for, potentially, a bunch of smaller Hitlers.

Pff only doubled?

Isn’t alt Text for people with screen reader who otherwise would have problems with pictures?
