    Checked Digg like the day after it released, and it felt like a discount Facebook in UI, and a discount Reddit in UX. Also no RSS or other forms of following externally, which is a no go for me.

    The other one, I’m not familiar with.





  • Personally, if I must listen to music through streaming, I don’t have much of a need for the Youtube Music variant, so my opinion below stems from that.

    Now, I think Peertube could retrofit that and benefit from it. I’ve seen discussions that it doesn’t improve as much as other ActivityPub platforms because videos are so big few end up making instances of them. But as musics are so much smaller, uploading them could give Peertube a boost in interest.

    And instance-wise, there could be instances focused solely on musics, or akin to Bluesky and Piefed, that offer lists that group channels/profiles/etc. based on common subjects.

    Also I know other instances can display Peertube contents, so maybe playlists that propagate through ActivityPub could be made too to work as some sort of radio?


  • To the OP: since diggita uses Lemmy, I’d suggest setting the post language to Italian when posting in that language. That’d let users leverage their instances’ language filter settings.

    And a translation by Google of the article:

    Beyond the blackout: Digital Apartheid is born
    
    According to Filterwatch reports also reported by The Guardian, the Iranian regime is developing a plan to turn access to the global web into a "government privilege".
    
    Instead of blocking specific sites, the regime is reportedly implementing a “white list”: that way, only domestic services hosted on the National Information Network (NIN) would be allowed to function.
    
    Access to the web could only be granted to previously "screened" and authorized individuals and institutions, creating a system of digital apartheid.
    
    According to some testimonies, it seems that the network seems active (the signal icon is there), but the data does not flow or the connection "pulses" (disconnects every few seconds), a technique used to discourage the use of VPNs.
    
    The report would confirm the total collapse of e-commerce and domestic logistics as “collateral damage” necessary to maintain political control and prevent protest coordination by completing the infrastructure necessary for a permanent detachment from the World Wide Web, replacing it with a fully surveilled national network.
    
    It could be the end of the “open” internet in Iran, replaced by a closed network that serves as both a tool of surveillance and a weapon of political isolation.```
