At least in most part of the world, Apple is actually the rare choice.

1. Generic PC (Windows/Linux) is cheaper
2. Less American stuff on your PC, your PC manufacturer can be local.

He stopped being edgy more than five years ago after backlash from his own community. No racist joke, no rage baiting, no channel wars.

His content this days is just wholesome family interaction, art journey, or tech experimentation.

Japan also did that, but it mostly just for the uniqueness of the robot, not for replacing workforce.

Fediverse is still mostly Westerner.

While on Facebook, there are a ton of community from SEA, East Asia, Africa, Middle East, and so on.

Also, Facebook Lite makes the poorest people in my country to be able to access social media without using too many internet quota.

The variation of groups is far beyond any social media, even Reddit or any other community site. You can get thousands of variation of Minecraft groups that exactly suits your community needs. Or maybe just a city chicken fried seller community.

That was Logan Paul around 2018. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-42538495

“calls another YouTube channel bitch lasagna” that was years ago right? These days he seems more calm and almost no toxicity whatsoever other than rarely saying shit, fuck, or generic swear word.

Bilibili is already trying to open across Asia without any success. They’re now changing their strategy to be Crunchyroll of Asia (mostly licensing anime from Muse Asia, Ani-One, and other company), but also allow people to host stuff (most people are either ACG content or pirated movie).

He got backlash from his own fans from all edgy and toxic jokes. I remember some of his Indian fans are angry for his PewDiePie vs T-series stuff (T-series: Indian music company).

I think around 2019, he apologized and recognized all the edginess he did, and promised to do better.

For the last five years, all of his content are basically wholesome family stuff or creative activities. Even his recent art journey video are widely shared among young art communities that’s not even his fans.

From what I read, it was originally higher (82%), but went down because SteamOS has X11 as its default.

You can read more about KDE X11 plan on here: https://pointieststick.com/2025/06/21/about-plasmas-x11-session/

Quoted from the blog: "Current status: Plasma’s X11 session continues to be maintained.

Specifically, that means:

• We’ll make sure Plasma continues to compile and deploy on X11.
• Bug reports about the Plasma X11 session being horribly broken (for example, you can’t log in) will be fixed.
• Very bad X11-specific regressions will probably be fixed eventually.
• Less-bad X11-specific bugs will probably not be fixed unless someone pays for it.
• X11-specific features will definitely not be implemented unless someone pays for it. "

As much as it’s true, not all company are doing this. There are plenty of good East Asian company with good work life balance, especially newer company that already recognize the issue.

Is there any application that implement them?

Misskey. It’s not exactly niche, but it has a lot of cool features.

For example:

• Drive features to reuse your image or other media.
• Misskey games, so far only have Bubble Game and Go.
• Groups
• Antenna, basically subscription for any post with your set of rules.
• Playful profile decoration, similiar to Discord/Steam.

Misskey is probably the only fediverse software that actually allows admin instance to put ads.

Its flagship instance, misskey.io (which also the second/third (?) biggest instances on fediverse), use freemium scheme for running the server. They have to do this as they have 600K users, with 20K visits per day. Their paid tier upgrades are mostly adding non-essentials stuff, such as drive capacity from 5GB to 30-100GB, profile and avatar decoration (similar to Discord stuff), or more webhook. They runs community ads, from indie games, vtuber promotion, comic release, or local art event. They also have one corporate backer, Skeb.jp, which an art commissioning platform.

Not saying that all instance should do this, but it could be a great learning.

You can consider using flagship instance as a way to fund the development. It’s not like they force you to use flagship instance.

There always third-party instance or self-host as an option.

I’ve seen multiple fediverse project dead before arrival, as the dev working on other job(s) for living. Heck, that’s also the same reason why most of fediverse project are from the West, a lot of people who lives in a country with low paygrade (including me) are not able to dedicate their time for FOSS project.

Which software? Lemmy?

There are always needs for self-hosting for everything.

I can see some education institution set up their 3D model instance, and make it federated with other entities.

The problem is content discovery, right? As I said before, people are working to fix that right now.

Social web is basically similar to early internet, where discovering new things is hard.

Fediverse itself is still “early phase”

There are plenty of proposal of features social web community, handled W3C organization, such as easier way to find content (if the instance want it to be public.)

There’s definitely a value of community being able toset up instance of their own 3D pirinting models.

Lol, as Javanese, It’s funny that Javanese ethnic name -> Javanese coffee -> Javanese programming language.

People still keep thinking that I was a programmer or making a typo of Japanese everytime I mention I speak Javanese.

It’s legit applicable for people that have Twitter just for realtime earthquake warning.

At least its applicable for Indonesian users.
