@hi@romanzolotarev.com hmm, yes I do follow a relay and seems to be absolutely fine.

Might be worth reaching out to @grunfink@comam.es as I'm not sure why the user.json would be affected.

    @landesregierung@social.schleswig-holstein.de @Gina@fosstodon.org yup.
    As much as us FOSS nerds would love to say these things are drop in replacements, they absolutely aren't

    Of course, we know they're worth the effort 😁

      @scribblanitea@cupoftea.social @SeaFury@aus.social i haven't been to the ozzy Launceston for comparison, but I'm going to hazard a guess that cornish launceston is more upside-down like 😆

          @thedoctor@polymaths.social honestly, I'd say it's not worth it.
          First you have to find an SSO provider that works with all the self-hosted stuff, then configure each self-hosted thing to work with said provider, if that's even a feature.
          Just logging into each of them independently it's massively easier to handle, in my opinion

            @thedoctor@polymaths.social @rl_dane@polymaths.social the problem comes at the point where you've learned everything - or at least learned everything you enjoy.
            Up until that point I think I'd be fine.

            I would hate for it to end up like a Black Mirror - White Christmas situation though!

              @ubi@ecoevo.social perhaps something like @xwiki@xwiki.com ?
              I believe there's a forum module that can be added.

                @brianbilston@mastodon.online @chandlerkyle93@stranger.social i do enjoy the poetry that the day in history where nothing significant of note happened has become a significantly noteworthy day due to the significance of nothing noteworthy happening

                  @Mikesch_001@mastodonczech.cz also, DT looks a lot like Susan Boyle circa 2009 in that image.

                  Sorry, Susan, for such a horrible insult, you do not deserve it.

But I'll relax about it in 6 months or so
