Linux Is Best

@BrodieOnLinux@mstdn.social

WoltLab Burning Board is a forum software developed by developers for developers, as well as business class support forums in mind. -- Discourse was not the right choice.

WoltLab's framework is free open source, too. Granted, the forum is paid, but it would have been a better option.

The upcoming possibility of browsing to remote federated categories/communities has me thinking about interesting use cases for it.

Note that Lemmy, PieFed, mBin, and other "community-centric" software already do support this, so it's nothing new, I'm actually playing catch-up.

One interesting use case centers around NodeBB's /unread route, which tracks new topics since your last visit. Since ever, and even now in v4, this is only for local categories, but if you're able to "subscribe" to a remote category, then we could enable use of this page for that content too.

Think about waking up and seeing a self-curated feed of new content from your subscribed communities! There are some interesting parallels to RSS here, too.

What other forum-centric use cases do you think would be enhanced by the ability to browse remote categories?

"A vast, decentralized network of personal #blogs, #forums, and independent #communities has been corralled into a handful of paved #prisonyards controlled by a few massive corporations.

The fediverse is a #jailbreak. It’s not something you can buy stock in or use to enrich yourself at the cost of our shared humanity."

chat-to.devThe most toxic forums on the internet.The internet is a vast and diverse space, and while it has brought people together in countless positive ways, it also harbors some of the **most toxic forums** imaginable. These platforms, often lurking in the darker corners of the web, have gained notoriety for fostering environments where hate speech, harassment, and extreme ideologies thrive. One of the most infamous examples is **4chan's /b/ board**, a place where anonymity reigns supreme, and the lack of moderation allows for unfiltered, often disturbing content. It’s a breeding ground for offensive humor, trolling, and even the spread of harmful ideologies. Another notorious platform is **8kun** (formerly 8chan), which has been linked to the proliferation of extremist content and conspiracy theories. This forum has been associated with several real-world tragedies, as its users often engage in radicalization and the glorification of violence. The lack of oversight and the platform's commitment to free speech, no matter how harmful, have made it a magnet for some of the internet's most dangerous individuals. Reddit, while generally more moderated, has also hosted its fair share of toxic communities. Subreddits like **r/incels** (before being banned) and **r/The_Donald** (prior to stricter moderation) became infamous for fostering misogyny, racism, and political extremism. These spaces often started as niche communities but grew into echo chambers where harmful ideologies were normalized and amplified. What makes these forums particularly dangerous is their ability to **normalize toxicity**. Users often feed off each other's negativity, creating a feedback loop that escalates harmful behavior. The anonymity provided by these platforms further emboldens individuals to say things they would never dare to in real life, leading to an environment where empathy and accountability are virtually nonexistent. While the internet has the potential to be a force for good, these toxic forums serve as a stark reminder of its darker side. They highlight the importance of moderation, accountability, and the need for platforms to take responsibility for the content they host. Without these safeguards, the internet risks becoming a haven for the worst aspects of human behavior.

💡 #LibreTips : Ça fait longtemps que le #Firefox que j'utilise sous #Linux Mint (et précédemment sous #Manjaro) était très très long à démarrer (premier démarrage à froid). Je m'étais documenté sur les #forums et j'avais essayé plein de trucs, sans succès. Et puis je suis tombé sur : "mettre un autre thème que le thème sombre original de #Mozilla", et, tadaaa ! C'est résolu ! Firefox démarre désormais très rapidement à froid 🚀
