Liberation of closed source/trade marked goods is only a good thing.

Yo if you ever find a good source PLEASE tell me, this is a constant struggle for me too, I will return the favour

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I'll keep it in mind. It's so weird how gated it is

your local library should have them or if you ask they can get them for you or tell you where you can access them.

They are starting to make them more accessible, for example, see here for actually free, official access to the standards but with a few caveats.

is it? on my end, I can see that !technology@lemmy.world has 50k subs, but it doesn't come up if I search for it. weird

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think stats are all over the place. According to this /c/piracy is top.

But, yeah. When you go to technology on lemmy.world it shows 50k. When I visit it from feddit.uk, I see 294 subscribers.

Is each one showing how many users just your instance has subscribed, or does the lemmy.world one actually have the correct amount?

(to avoid anyone getting whooshed the last part is a joke)

So I guess it's good there was a mass exodus from lemmy world.

[–] Five@slrpnk.net 5 points 10 months ago
