The country now has more than 1,000 waste-incinerating power stations, representing more than half the world’s waste power capacity, according to the Global Waste-to-Energy Research and Technology Council.
That’s a good question, but, would the waste then be properly disposed of? It may not be incredibly efficient right now, but less trash is less trash, right?
The ships sending us Chinese goods have to return to China anyway. That’s why everyone was sending China their plastic to be “recycled”. Might as well just incinerate it.
What great news, the trash is just gone once you burn it and nobody has to think about that statement any further. One thing real quick: we don't need clean air for anything, do we?
It is possible to burn waste and manage the pollution in at least somewhat safe manner. Finland and Sweden do it reasonably well with high temperature furnaces and filtering the exhaust gases either with mechanical filter or trough water. That also (at least as far as I know) requires that you sort out the waste and don't burn stuff like electronics, metals and some other crap which can be effectively recycled and manage whatever remains properly.
So, it's possible, but I have absolutely no idea if China does that properly.
There are live pollution maps of the world if you need an idea if China does that properly but I‘ll have to warn you that you‘ll most likely be disappointed and somewhat terrified.
I meant that I don't know if these trash incinerators are managed properly. I'm well aware that in general there's a crapload of unmanaged pollution and a ton of other problems around, but like every other country China is slowly improving their stuff so it's not impossible that new plants would be up to modern standards.
Leaders of Europe's top carmakers gathered in Brussels seeking eased emission standards on new cars. Germany's auto industry lobby has said rigid emissions regulation "jeopardizes competitiveness."
They are already wildly uncompetitive on account of having flubbed the EV transition, China already beat them solidly on all accounts. Why should they be given anything they ask for?
I live here and that's pretty much the case. Mind you, this is the first I hear that we've agreed to this and I daresay there will be some vigorous discussion among us Sandgropers.
JERUSALEM (AP) — When Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered this week’s attempted assassination of Hamas leaders in Qatar, he took a major gamble in his campaign to pound the group into submission.
With signs growing that the mission failed, that gamble appears to have backfired.
Netanyahu had hoped to kill Hamas’ senior exiled leaders to get closer toward his vision of “total victory” against the militant group that attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, and pressure it into surrendering after nearly two years of war in the Gaza Strip.
Instead, Hamas claims its leaders survived, and Netanyahu’s global standing, already badly damaged by the scenes of destruction and humanitarian disaster in Gaza, took another hit.
The airstrike Tuesday has enraged Qatar, an influential U.S. ally that has been a key mediator throughout the war, and drawn heavy criticism across the Arab world. It also has strained relations with the White House and thrown hopes of reaching a ceasefire into disarray, potentially endangering the 20 hostages still believed to be alive in Gaza.
Imagine sending the president of an allied nation a decked out 747 as a nine figure bribe, only for the president to greenlight airstrikes that killed some of your most senior diplomats.
You think Bibi trusts Trump enough to tell him about an op like this beforehand? I think Trump's relatively friendly relationship with Al Thani is exactly the reason he didn't find out in time to warn Qatar. The plan was to kill Hamas' negotiators and then present it as a fait accompli.
I could've bought myself into a myth of Israel being encircled by enemies if not for it attacking everyone at will, getting no response. US, Europe raised a bully and only some select countries refuse to enable it. I'm yet to decide if I'm on board with a complete erasure of Israel as a state, but I don't see any solution possible before it becomes deeply pacified and demilitarized.
The next time someone tells you the youth aren’t engaged enough in politics, just point them to Nepal.
According to multiple reports, the youth of the South Asian nation managed to oust the existing government following an attempted ban of major social media platforms and took to Discord to hold an impromptu convention to elect an interim prime minister.
The organizing appears to have worked. On Friday, the military accepted the recommendation of the protest group and named Karki the interim prime minister. Karki, who accepted the role, is expected to pick a new cabinet and eventually hold elections. According to the Times, that is expected to happen within the next six months or so.
Smaller countries are easier to get new governments in. The bigger it is the harder it is to oust a leader, let alone get better leadership in after.
I think these south asians are on to something with their methods of protesting here, idk if I can say this on here but targeting the homes of lawmakers garnered by corrupt means, and government buildings, seems to be a good strategy.
Sri lanka, indonesia, and nepal all did this recently and I think I am missing some even.
smaller countries have an easier time getting better government because in smaller countries, things are closer by, and it's easier to just walk up to your prime minister's house and set it on fire if he misbehaves. in the US, which is a thousand kilometers across, you can't just walk there.
I'm actually in favor of bringing political responsibility back to the local level. That means, communities largely organize themselves, with only few interactions with the federal government.
Tbh Indonesia is not a small country, it has the 4th largest population and the archipelago is as wide as US. However the demonstrations there took place in almost all major cities.
The federal government has become the monster it was checked and balanced not to.
We celebrate the feds ursurping authority because slavery, and then civil rights, but the feds are only authorized domestically to regulate interstate commerce, and forbidden from placing restrictions on movement of goods and people in the country.
We would have support across the country forcing the feds to back off getting into everybody's business.
Here we are with feds bringing military troops into cities to occupy the hoods the country has made, a clear violation of their authority. This is just getting warmed up, we should pass a constitutional smmendment forbidding the feds from income taxes beyond soc. sec., medicare, medicaid, etc really.
It could pass by referendums in 30 dome states, would just need a handful more.
It sounds extreme but is the only way to stop the executive branch long term.
It's absolutely possible to have a strong federal government without getting into the shit show we have today. The problem is when federal authority gets distilled into a handful of people and detached from popular representation or recall.
"Getting the feds to back off" has been the laughable fig leaf that the right has used to dismantle the normal operation of our government for 200+ years. Now you're buying into balkanization when they've enacted their coup?
We don't need more limits on the only structure that can mitigate/navigate climate collapse; the only thread that historically has opposed the oppression of the deep south; the only speedbump that could even moderately oppose the hegemony of the ultra wealthy.
The US constitution was designed to entrench the power of the white landowner class, and that has remained true in spite of the consistent creep of federal authority. It's just not possible to mount any opposition to the massive weight of their capital in any other way.
So no, don't restrict the Fed's authority to do any of that. Just give us the tools to get real, fair representation and hold our representatives accountable. Every other needed reform and restructuring could be done with no problem once we have that.
Just give us the tools to get real, fair representation
that won't solve the problem. people just have very different views of how the path should continue forwards. you're not going to unite that. if you represent fairly, you might end up with a federal government that is 50% democrat and 50% republican, but that just means that everybody only gets half of what they want.
That is such a black&white way of thinking, so FPTP of you, as a non-🇺🇸: proportional representation ensures that by partisan bill are the defacto, law starts to hing on convincing other parties. Sure there will be exclusionary stances but it often comes with people voting for a different party that’s similar to yours
No, i don't think you get what i meant, let me explain again:
If the democratic areas want taxes to be at 50% for the rich and the republicans want them to be at 0%, then a middle way would be to set them at 25%. But this way, everyone is discontent.
A better system would be to set them to 50% in the democrat areas and to 0% in the republican areas. For which you would have to have two distinct legal regions.
edit: tax rate was a bad example. i should have chosen something else.
We tried protesting politicians houses in the UK a couple years ago. And even though the PM and his family wasn't there, and all they did was hang up a banner, the narrative was about how they were intimidating him with violent threats against his family and was widely condemed.
Idk the term limits will help or hurt here. Being limited our lawmakers would sell out all the harder to set themselves up in their last term. It makes sense for executive positions because they can cement themselves in power.
I believe the answer is to organize and find and groom our own candidates that can win. Ones that will acknowledge and address the actual sources of our problems, which would be massively popular with voters you better believe it.
In your second paragraph you touch on why term limits work. It makes sure that the candidates are more closely connected to the people they represent. An incumbent will lose their connection, the longer they are in office.
Our lawmakers are near all sociopathic nhilists that believe in nothing outside of self interest. The only check on their behavior is re election, remove that they will be worse their last term.
Lawmakers that have been in there forever and Corruption and misrepresentation of their constituents may seem correlated but it is not a causation.
It is not lawmakers being in there forever that has caused our lawmakers to suck. It is a very purposeful half-century long campaign by big business, from 1972 in the business Round Table that made a plan to corrupt and ultimately kill the Republic.
The system certainly needs a table flip at this point.
How about something like the following.
Each person only ever gets a single term. They earn a salary while in office. When the next election comes around, you get to elect their replacement, but you also get to vote on if the person in office, should earn a pension for the rest of their life. They need 50% to earn the pension.
Unironically yes. We should still have a regional compact or something but clearly things are not working. People have wildly different visions of how the country should be run and this stupid power struggle isn’t helping anyone.
So, like a union... Of American states... The problem is that we've already got that, but people don't participate in those local governments. They show up once every 4 years to vote for president, and get mad when that doesn't magically fix everything.
No, no it wouldn't. The issues are systemic, not the result of the federal government's existence. Did Britain become less corrupt after leaving the EU? No, because Britain's problems are systemic to their own politics.
It might make the fight more local, but that's already the case. You can already campaign for change in your state, but people don't do that. The average American doesn't know their local representatives, and don't engage in local poltics. You have to change that attitude, and convince people in the concept of a civil society, in which they are actively participating members.
None of this relates to what I was saying. The UK already had its own sovereign government, otherwise it wouldn’t have been able to leave so easily.
I’m just saying the feds didn’t have so much power people wouldn’t pay so much attention to them and would pay more attention to their local stuff. Which would be good for democracy.
I’d like to see government focused on the neighborhood level whenever possible. Only move up to the next one if there is an unsolvable issue.
This is not the only change that’s needed so it won’t fix everything on its own but it would allow people to make much more effective decisions about their own lives instead of people in Kansas deciding things about local DC law enforcement like we do now. That’s bonkers.
The organizing appears to have worked. On Friday, the military accepted the recommendation of the protest group and named Karki the interim prime minister.
If only this is how it could go down in the US. Sigh…
I wonder what the US military would do if the current administration's head was cut off quickly enough so no significant orders went out to the military from them. Marshal law then eventually an election?
Under current law, you would need to kill 22 people before replacements can be appointed. Possibly less if some of them are not constitutionally eligible to be president; but if it ever got to that point, I suspect we would ignore that provision.
Pulling this off is made even more difficult by both the heightened security given to everyone in the line of succession; and the fact that under our continuity of government plans, those people are deliberately never all in the same place at the same time.
Anything that could accomplish a full decapitation strike would likely require marshall law anyway, and would likely make the conditions for an election difficult.
The No Kings protests demonstrated, if literally nothing else, that record-breaking groups of people across the country can remain mostly peaceful with extremely high underlying emotions churning.
This administration will be the downfall of the system and people will barely have to lift a finger. When the US economy inevitably crashes, people's comfort will be in jeopardy - mass bloodshed will not restore that. This isn't the 1800s, we literally are too numerous and our systems are too fragile to support and sustain a massive, drawn-out civil war.
Does anyone who follows Nepali politics know if this is going to turn into a color revolution? Are western powers successfully using this as a pretense to get a right-wing government in?
Everything is peaceful now we are heading for election after month. Military do good job to control violence. Many things happen which we don't want to happen in protest. We are trying to do best to run the nation but old politicians trying to mess things again. They are making sure this protest fails and they can rule again. Many things happening.
On one hand, fuck social media. The recommender AIs that run it are only supposed to optimise engagement, thus optimising ad revenue. But they are far more powerful than that. They can influence public opinion as a whole. Totally out-of-band from the sovereignty of any nation. It is foolish to think that Google, Youtube, Facebook, Netflix, and Twitter aren't abusing this power. Every responsible nation that wants to defend its sovereignty against recommender AIs must ban social media immediately, along with every other source of such recommendations.
On the other hand, everything else that happened in Nepal. I'm just glad the actual decisions happened on Discord, the least terrible of the platforms. At least Discord doesn't have these sinister recommender AIs.
She have send many corrupt people jail before. These corrupt leader try to suspend her from chief judge post but can't do it . I am happy seeing her as our PM. I will vite for her if she run for coming election.
I go back to it every day to check whether it's still there because it feels so surreal that i think it's somehow just a dream and i'm going to wake up every moment now and the news story will have disappeared.
I never met him myself, but I know a few people who have done way back. Site crew in Bristol mostly. Rip useless Paul who had one of his rats on the side of his trailer.
Our current government is the labour party, the one of the big two that is supposed to be more left leaning. They haven't been left leaning in twenty years, they crept to centrist and now the creep to the right continues. They're not dissimilar from the democrats in America. Internationally, there seems to be a general move towards the right and we are certainly following it. Demonstrations and activism don't seem to help. Shit is fucked, basically.
The UK government as effectively ignored all protests since the poll tax riots. The choice seems either start acting like the French or just sit down and shut up.
Yeah, and I've been on some actions that have kicked off, back in the day, fighting the lines of riot police. It was fun but achieved fuck all. Yeah we need many more people involved in aggressive protests. I don't know if that will help either, but at least we need to mobilise a broader section of the population.
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Personnel from a U.S. warship boarded a Venezuelan tuna boat with nine fishermen while it was sailing in Venezuelan waters, Venezuela’s foreign minister said on Saturday, underlining strained relations with the United States.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Tensions between the two nations escalated after U.S. President Donald Trump in August ordered the deployment of warships in the Caribbean, off the coast of the South American country, citing the fight against Latin American drug cartels.
While reading a statement on Saturday, Foreign Minister Yván Gil told journalists the Venezuelan tuna boat was “illegally and hostilely boarded by a United States Navy destroyer” and 18 armed personnel who remained on the vessel for eight hours, preventing communication and the fishermen’s normal activities. They were then released under escort by the Venezuelan navy.
If anybody is wondering, Tracer.ai is legit and operating at the instruction of Microsoft.
They’re an AI brand protection service which has been systematically harming Microsoft’s brand for a while. An example - getting YouTube videos about Minecraft removed, which has hindered Minecraft’s visibility online (which is a huge part of Xbox revenue). reddit.com/r/PhoenixSC/comment…
I do not understand why they want to remove minecraft videos.
Minecraft videos have been a huge part of it's growth... and it's impossible to imagine a scenario where these videos are harming MS or their brand. They already make money off of viewers buying the game... this is stupid
I do not understand why they want to remove minecraft videos.
For the same reason they went after the admin of the wrong instance asking them to delete the fake microsoft account - it's a dumb algorithm doing a shit job. That this is a separate company that is being paid while doing such a shitty job says a lot about microsoft
Taiwan is projected to lose a working-age population of about 6.67 million people in two waves of retirement in the coming years, as the nation confronts accelerating demographic decline and a shortage of younger workers to take their place, the Ministry of the Interior said.
I get the sense they are sticking it more to entitled guys and potential mothers-in-law than the government! Just going off one friend's opinions there, though.
OK, I am not surprised, but that's not well known and kind of a taboo subject so not official, they were 'guidelines' and the policies were 'encouragement'. Canada did similar nasty abusive sterilization in its colonial enterprise until the '70s, but hardly anyone knows.

The number of people in Japan aged 100 or older has risen to a record high of nearly 100,000, its government has announced.
Setting a new record for the 55th year in a row, the number of centenarians in Japan was 99,763 as of September, the health ministry said on Friday. Of that total, women accounted for an overwhelming 88%.
Yes. Universal healthcare is highly correlated with life expectancy even when controlling for a shitload of other variables. This is like the host studied thing on the planet and the science is not controversial.
According to the new preprint, clerical errors, pension fraud, and a lack of birth certificates explain blue zones and their above-average numbers of centenarians.
When billionaire Bill Ackman suggested on Twitter that Eric Adams could “place a large [Polymarket] bet on Andrew Cuomo and then announce [his] withdrawal” from the New York City mayoral race, he described something that feels profoundly illegal. A politician profiting from non-public knowledge of their own withdrawal from an election surely crosses some line — insider trading? Market manipulation? Election interference? Illegal gambling? Ackman ended his tweet: “There is no insider trading on Polymarket” — not because it doesn’t happen, but because it won’t be charged. He’s right: the Securities and Exchange Commission’s insider trading rules don’t apply here. But that leaves the question: what rules, if any, do?
As Ackman says, prediction markets fall outside the SEC’s jurisdiction,a living in a different regulatory world than stock markets where executives get prosecuted for trading on non-public earnings or tipping off friends about upcoming mergers. Unlike crypto’s ongoing turf wars between regulators, prediction markets have a clear home: the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which oversees futures, swaps, and other derivatives trading. A farmer worried about a poor wheat harvest can buy futures contracts that rise in value if wheat prices increase, helping to offset the money lost from selling less grain. An airline can buy oil-based futures contracts to offset the risk of jet fuel costs rising, effectively letting them budget fuel at today’s prices even if market rates climb before delivery. Some derivatives markets more closely resemble prediction markets, dealing in events rather than commodities — for instance, ski resorts can hedge against poor snowfall by trading weather-based contracts.
While farmers hedging wheat prices serves a clear economic purpose, prediction markets operate in murkier territory. When people trade on sports games or celebrity relationships, are they engaging in legitimate derivatives trading deserving the same regulatory treatment? Or are platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket essentially gambling sites operating under the veneer of financial markets? And with participants potentially losing big money to better-informed insiders, who’s ensuring these markets stay fair? What happens when prediction markets collide with other issues — from market manipulation to gambling addiction to election integrity?
Prediction markets once lived on the academic fringe. Now they’re trading billions on politics, sports, and celebrity gossip — under rules never designed for retail gamblers.
More than 200 contractors who worked on evaluating and improving Google’s AI products have been laid off without warning in at least two rounds of layoffs last month. The move comes amid an ongoing fight over pay and working conditions, according to workers who spoke to WIRED.
In the past few years, Google has outsourced its AI rating work—which includes evaluating, editing, or rewriting the Gemini chatbot’s response to make it sound more human and “intelligent”—to thousands of contractors employed by Hitachi-owned GlobalLogic and other outsourcing companies. Most raters working at GlobalLogic are based in the US and deal with English-language content. Just as content moderators help purge and classify content on social media, these workers use their expertise, skill, and judgment to teach chatbots and other AI products, including Google’s search summaries feature called AI Overviews—the right responses on a wide range of subjects. Workers allege that the latest cuts come amid attempts to quash their protests over issues including pay and job insecurity.
These workers, who often are hired because of their specialist knowledge, had to have either a master’s or a PhD to join the super rater program, and typically include writers, teachers, and people from creative fields.
Rep. Sarah McBride [D], the only openly trans member of Congress, voted in support of "Honoring the Legacy" of Charlie Kirk
"scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds" isn't some saying born out of ignorance or a failure to understand nuance, it is painfully accurate. when McBride won her election i lost a friendship after scoffing over her victory because of her Zionism and commitment to Israel. apparently, as a non-binary trans person, i should simply shut up and count her win as a trans goal reached.
today i am vindicated. didn't take long, did it? not even a full year in office and she has shown her true colors. she is incapable of protecting us from Christian authoritarianism because she is a willing participant in its takeover. Charle Kirk spent the last few years demonizing people like her and myself, dehumanizing LGBT Americans, and encouraging the spread of theocratic interpretation of our laws and allegiance to Trump. the rise in younger sycophants and MAGA loyalists can be directly attributed to Charlie Kirk's popularity and closeness to the Trump administration. Kirk was not a mere mouthpiece or figurehead; he wasn't some YouTuber or online guy popular with the kiddos. he was a massive political organizer, and the amount of lies Kirk spread about trans people was immoral, irresponsible, violent, deadly, and deserving of reaction.
Kirk blamed transgender Americans for everything from inflation to moral decay. while appearing on a radio show he wrapped up a comment involving queer people with the following: “someone should’ve just took care of it the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s and '60s." Kirk also referred to Leviticus 18 as "God's perfect law" when attempting to point out how another Christian was cherry-picking which passages of the Bible to follow (Leviticus 18 calls for stoning gay people to death if you read it as such which Kirk does). and here, transgender Rep. McBride [D], is voting to honor this man; a man who would have her killed through violent stochastic actors operating within the MAGA cult and general conservative fascists at large.
the fear and outrage Charlie Kirk was directly responsible for has done incalculable damage nationwide. McBride is offering the genocide of her own minority group if it keeps her protected and in power. she cannot be trusted and should be shunned by all. she is cowardly and will not help you. i have to leave my state because of the validity people like her are giving transphobic bigots like Kirk.

L’Italvolley di Ferdinando De Giorgi rialza la testa e vola ai quarti di finale dei Mondiali di pallavolo 2025 nelle Filippine. Dopo la sconfitta con il Belgio che aveva fatto tremare le certezze degli azzurri, la nazionale italiana ha battuto l’Argentina con un netto 3-0. Una prestazione di carattere, trascinata dal talento di Alessandro Michieletto, dall’esperienza di Simone Giannelli e dalla concretezza di Yuri Romanò.
There’s a new iPhone. Again. Improbably, we are on the 17th iteration (give or take) of the product that single-handedly ruins our lives every day with incessant vibrations alerting us to some horrifying calamity, plus every song in the Bruce Springsteen back catalog. Coming up with new features for the never-ending information machines we all keep in our pockets isn’t easy, but this time, Apple managed to develop a big (or should I say small) one. There’s now a thinner iPhone Air, which is being marketed as the thinnest iPhone ever. These gadgets have never exactly been gargantuan, so it’s kind of like identifying the tiniest grain of sand in the desert. Still, people around the world are fascinated by the sheer lack of phone here.
Technology, design, and art are all trending toward a certain scarcity model, prepping us for a lack of bells and whistles, as though both your parents are unemployed and they want you to expect fewer trips to Disneyland. Life on Earth feels more and more like the experience of entering a Sweetgreen – beige, spartan and unobtrusive. Sure, iPhones haven’t gotten cheaper, but they have certainly gotten … lesser. The iPhone Air is so small, I feel like I’ll sit on it and it will slide seamlessly up my rectum, never to be seen again. For some, I’m sure losing your device inside your bowels might be a feature, but I think it’s a rather uncomfortable bug.

Il mostro Illuyanka era una creatura della mitologia Ittita con caratteristiche serpentine, la cui storia è conosciuta grazie a tavolette cuneiformi ritrovate presso il sito archeologico di Hattusa e un’incisione parietale molto successiva a Malatya.
In 1972, this must have felt like stepping into the future. TVs had only ever been passive, and suddenly the screen could respond. Families were seeing their living room sets turn into game machines, with paddles controlling little glowing squares.
Now, the overlays look wild. Plastic sheets taped to the glass to turn dots into tennis courts or haunted houses. It’s clumsy. Also brilliant—an early hack to add color and imagination to an otherwise bare signal. You had to supply the magic yourself, which makes it all the more fascinating today.
And the way Magnavox pitched it. What are you going to do when your kids are snowed in? It was sold like a family appliance. Little did they know that this would be revolutionary.

The Navigator method registerProtocolHandler() lets websites register their ability to open or handle particular URL schemes (also known as protocols).
I write about this here: near zero mobile browser support but strong desktop browser support- and I suggest a JavaScript fallback for the others …. timothychambers.net/2025/06/24…
This is so great, I feel like whenever this idea comes up it's just so difficult to explain to people what it would feel like to use. (and why it's helpful!)
You talked about changing the address yourself in the browser bar which is already easier than loading up your home server and going through the step to lookup. For me what excited me about this idea was that people could be displaying the links in pages. You often see it with a socials section at the bottom of someone's blog, they link to their profile on their server when what I want them to link to is their profile with the web+ap protocol.
But this leads to another big UX problem, the links are useless if you don't have a handler registered. There is no fallback mechanism your browser will just ask you what you want to open it with and have an empty list of suggestions. So I think it would need to have a recognizable way to be communicated to the user, a consistent icon for the link and a memorable name because only people who knew they set up a handler would want them.
This is a pass at implementing a web-based protocol handler which could be used to create URLs that reference remote users or posts, but that open locally at your home server.
There are quite a few dialogues, yes... but once the initial setup is done it looks alright.
Curious... because when I open magnet:// links, there's no confirmation on subsequent links once I've done the initial handler assignment. It looks to be something reserved for web+ handlers, which is a little annoying, isn't it.
You're absolutely right about the mobile browsers sadly, but support on mobile apps is good. The UX there is better than it is on desktop browsers too, because it can be registered in the app manifest and doesn't require complicated approval and handler selection flows. People are also more familiar with links that look a certain way opening in their related app, it's just that they expect the behavior at the host level instead of the protocol level.
This document defines the 'acct' Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) scheme as a way to identify a user's account at a service provider, irrespective of the particular protocols that can be used to interact with the account.
It's a good idea, but fedi is maybe too broad to be useful? I wouldn't want a Lemmy post to open in Mastodon, and pretty sure opening a Mastodon post in Lemmy is impossible unless the post was directed to a community.
web+threadiverse could solve that issue but that's kinda hacky. Maybe the real solution is to improve Lemmy and Mastodon so that they are capable of doing these things decently.
I was actually thinking of making a browser extension that handles this instead. Each Fediverse software could write something to window.fediverse or something like that, with tags for group support or micro blogging. The extension could have methods to infer these values for existing platforms. But the extension could give a dialog box to redirect, based on your preferred instances for certain tags.
Fedilinks website lists 3 MastoAPI clients, but the list is incomplete. I saw Fedilinks being mentioned in changelogs of other clients too.
There was also an Akkoma PR, it was closed by the author: akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/p…. I don't quite understand the reasoning, perhaps @smitten could clarify.
This is a pass at implementing a web-based protocol handler which could be used to create URLs that reference remote users or posts, but that open locally at your home server.
The PR comments suggest that making the various changes to the backend were too large to justify, and a front-end only approach would be preferred? smitten@key.portend.place
It raises a good point though, where if you serveweb+ap://, it's not understood by clients that are not aware of this scheme. If there were a way a client could communicate whether there is a protocol handler registered, then the server could tailor its response.
Glad to see more people having this idea! The problems we ran into were in helping the browser understand the address and know where to forward. Each server implements lookup routes differently, so there's not necessarily a generic path that you can trust is available on https on the person's home server, even if you know their home server origin. So in some ways the feature should be offered by your home server software, maybe offering a website that does the handler registration to its known lookup/redirect address.
But that is limiting in a few ways. It's a lot of extra steps for each person to do (browsers' default UI for registering protocols is not obvious or easy). It doesn't carry over to different devices, and if you have more than one home server in some way, you are back dealing with that not-great browser UI to pick which handler you want.
In general people are more accustomed to registering protocols to apps they have installed, especially phone apps. It's much easier to register them there and you don't have to have approval flow UI, but taking that approach moves this whole served handler route out of the backend again, so we have to start thinking more along the lines of web+ap-compatible servers that handler clients know how to call or bounce to.
Do you know what is the status of Fedlilinks? Has it been abandoned? FEP-07d7 was withdrawn, and other proposals have even less support than these two.

Finland and Sweden do it reasonably well with high temperature furnaces and filtering the exhaust gases either with mechanical filter or trough water. That also (at least as far as I know) requires that you sort out the waste and don't burn stuff like electronics, metals and some other crap which can be effectively recycled and manage whatever remains properly.
So, it's possible, but I have absolutely no idea if China does that properly.
