Sure.

Self host your own database and synchronize it that way.

j4vcdedmiokf56h3ho4t62mlku.srv.us is this your server?

What's a demo app? GNU Taler? Yeah, I said in the future. The preparation phase for the digital euro just started. If GNU Taler gets selected, you can start using it after 2025-2027

It would possibly be enshittified like others. The whole purpose of decentralization would be broken and it would become one single centralized website.

This is why I advise people to lead people to other instances than lemmy.world. That instance is getting too big and the other instances aren't. We instead should balance the user count in all instances. And possibly finish the implementation to own content in a decentralized fashion using DIDs. That will need something like the blockchain though, so perhaps we could also have a fediverse coin as a bonus? lol

That honeycomb is better fit tbh. Who cares about the meaning of the symbol? 99.99% people only look at the visual symbol itself.

Use Tor with bridges, or orbot if you want to use apps.

the nostalgia I feel...
